Breakfast! The most important meal of the day (2004-2011)

[Panaderia Canadiense]

So... much... fat..... Must... eat... more... fruit.... Y'all are giving me a coronary by proxy.

Today's brekkie was a fruit salad, crowned with the first ripe cherry-plums.

This morning: left over, grilled polenta with a poached egg over top and an apple.

I saw Denny's new commercial earlier today.

They just introduced "Bread Pudding French Toast" -- Gee, I wonder where they got the idea...

[percyn]

Spent the week in Las Vegas and although I did not cook these, I had great breakfasts at Thomas Keller's Bouchon.

Quiche Florentine

Steak Gratin - the whole eggs in the gratin were perfectly cooked with a soft yolk.

Banana Walnut Muffin

Yogurt Parfait

Corned Beef Hash with Poached Eggs

Pomme Frites

Boudin Blanc and Scrambled Eggs - Eggs were just a touch too tight for my taste

Chicken & Waffles - Keller's famous dish with savory chive waffles and the most succulent roast chicken I have ever had.

Of course there were numerous stops at the Bouchon bakery throughout the stay for some goodies such as:

Almond Croissant

Macaroons

Holy moley, percyn, you scared everyone away with those compelling breakfasts!

Mine was considerably more pedestrian - cabbage fried rice topped with a dollop of brinjal (eggplant relish).

[percyn]

Don't know what happened Bruce, it was meant to encourage people to post!

BTW, I love the brinjal pickle too.

Homemade Corned Beef Hash & Fried Egg

Basted Egg w/Corned Beef Hash

Scrambled Eggs w/Thyme

Supreme egg porn as always, percyn

Blue cheese omelet for me

Very nice robirdstx. Reminds me of an Indian version of eggs with tomatoes, onion and spices.

Thanks, percyn. What spices do you use in your Indian version? I think I would like that. Sometimes, I have the egg with pico de gallo.

[rotuts]

egg with pico is almost Ranchero add some beans and tortillas

Christmas Eve Breakfast

Brunch Baked Eggs - Jack Cheese, Mushrooms, Onion, Roasted Red Bell Peppers, Cooked Ham, Eggs, Milk, Flour, Chives, and Parsley

[Panaderia Canadiense]

Peach crisp made with my good friend Marco's harvested-yesterday Guaytambo and Melocoton peaches from his orchard, and my own vanilla ice cream. Le drool.

Who says I can't eat dessert at breakfast?!?!?

Usually tumeric, cumin, garlic, ginger and some onion. Some add cilantro leaves and ground coriander seeds as well.

Trying to use up Smoked spiral ham from Christmas.

Thank you, percyn. I will give it a try soon as I already have all of the spices on hand.
