What's for breakfast?

[sparrowgrass]

Buttermilk biscuits, sausage gravy, scrambled eggs. A sliced orange or two, just to counteract the cholesteral.

No grits.

[Fat Guy]

Cut myself a piece of cheddar (Cabot "Private Stock") and anticipated pairing it with hard pretzels. Turned out all the pretzels, as well as every other bread product, had been consumed, probably by me. So I just ate the cheese, with a glass of lemonade.

Eggs scrambled up with left over taco meat from last night's 'kids choice' supper, a bit of salsa, black beans on the side, corn tortillas nicely warmed.

[Jinmyo]

Two "slices" of crumbly 12 year old cheddar with Iranian lemon and salt coated toasted almonds. Assam tea with milk.

What's "Iranian lemon" ?

[Schielke]

Chocolate nutrition "shake"

cheese, lemon, almonds, and tea sounds better.

Breakfast is for tourists!

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day!

TWELVE year old cheddar? I didn't know they got that old. What do they taste like?

[beanpod]

crepes

blueberry compote

fresh strawberries

bananas

real maple syrup

coffee - with whipping cream (from scratch) and sugar, of course!!

[Kim WB]

A banana. One lonely, slightly under ripe banana.

Everyone else ate bagels and cream cheese and watermelon. By t he time I finished scrambling their eggs, they had eaten all the watermelon, the little vultures. So it was just me, and the Banana. Then a 45 minute treadmill workout and a lot of water.

Lunch? A little Port Salut, a green salad and a leftover barbequed chicken thigh.

[maggiethecat]

A leftover medium rare hamburger patty, eaten from fingers. Yum. Lots of joe.

[melkor]

frosted flakes with blueberries and strawberries from the farmers market and a glass of fresh squeezed orange juice

[gsquared]

Fresh orange juice, two fried eggs with pancetta, a salad with roasted courgette and brinjals with tomato sauce, roasted tomato slices with mozarella, two slices of toast with jam and a double espresso.

[Stone]

Half a twizzler and a large Starbucks.

[NeroW]

Today: the Brown, also known as coffee.

Yesterday, for myself, and my Ex: 9 eggs, scrambled, with onion, tomato, poblanos, garlic, cheese--you know the drill.

Hot tortillas.

English muffins with my aunt's fantastic (fantastic) grape jam.

Mimosas. Strawberries.

[Jim Dixon]

I've been in a rut ever since discovering the Normandy apple bread from Ken's Artisan Bakery. It's made with a mix of rye and organic whole wheat flours and isn't really sweet, but has a few slices of apple scattered through. He only makes it on Saturday, so I either have to get a loaf at the farmers market or drive over the to bakery. If I forget I'm bummed all week.

The standard weekday breakfast is an espresso with 2 slices and butter (plugra or, lately, Raven's creamery classique). If I've got some nice mild cheese, like the Willamette Valley gouda, that is an option. Last week I finished off the last of my Meyer lemon marmalade by spooning it over the bread spread with Oregon Gourmet Cheese's fromage blanc.

Bowl of various whole grain cereals = to about 6 cups, dry. Top with (in winter) 1 banana and 1 pear (anjou or bartlett), or in summer (1 banana, 1 pear, handful of strawberries, 1 peach and maybe other summer fruit). Fill bowl with skim milk until cereal is covered. Breakfast of champoins!

You eat 6 cups of cereal for breakfast?? I am trying to picture how big a bowl must be needed for such a feat!

[Rhea_S]

Made tea but forgot about it, as usual, until I was in my car and on the way to work. Had approximately half a cantaloupe sometime around 10:30.

[Nick]

A cup of "Miso-Cup", a plum, and an Alessi garlic breadstick.

[torakris]

eating it right now!

Earl grey tea and orange juice and honey, iced (from the iced tea thread)

french baguettes smeared with nutella

[SobaAddict70]

about a cup of cottage cheese (this and unflavored plain Dannon yogurt is how I usually get my calcium. If I have yogurt for breakfast, about 1 to 2 containers. I thoroughly despise sweetened yogurt.)

a hardboiled egg

water

a couple of bananas.

I tried drinking milk a couple of days ago and paid for it with the usual gastric distress. EJRothman is damn lucky. I'm jealous.

Soba

[Varmint]

One hard boiled egg. One small handful of Froot Loops with Marshmallows. Finally, a nasty pre-sweetened cereal where the cereal gets eaten as quickly as the marshmallows. Mrs. Varmint bought it by the way. They were out of muesli, I guess.
