What type of breakfast?
« on: April 03, 2012, 06:20:39 pm »
Hello,
I would like to know what you take for breakfast. I take a coffee, brioche and jam. As this forum several nationality, several habituds are represented, it seems interesting to know your habits. So that you take every morning? If you're in a hurry or if you have time like the weekend for example ?

See you soon

I'm a porridge person - with added extras - grains, protein powder (as I am a vegetarian), blueberries, LSA with Chia.  My husband loves CADA with blueberries for breakfast.  If we have time we occasionally go out for a leisurely breakfast at the weekend and I will nearly always order Eggs Florentine (even though my own home made one is better - this way someone else gets to do the washing up).

Some times I will have cereal or toast and other times I will have nothing.
My DH will quiet often have a cooked breakfast on a weekend when he has extra time but I have never been able to stomach cooked breakfast at all. The smell even turns me off.

Most mornings it's cereal for me, porridge in winter. Sometimes I have tomato on toast.
At the weekend we usually have a cooked breakfast. Eggs Benedict (DH favourite) or maybe just boiled eggs and soldiers.

That looks delicious, Fundj - I'm very envious of your cooking abilities.

Uni, with your cooking skills you could easily cook a roast.  I will help you if you want to have a go , and Judy is a master at using the BBQ for roasts. 

Breakfast here is varied.  I like to make my own muesli or sometimes will try a new bread ,  toasted.  Also, we have plenty of home made jam.  If the GC are staying,  they like pancakes.   We don't often have a cooked breakfast at home.  If we are traveling, and staying at a nice hotel we have the full breakfast,  but then only have 2 meals for the day.  Last week we stared at Rick Steins Lodge at Mollymook and I had smoked kippers for breakfast.  They also had house made French pastries.

Yoz, this is an interesting discussion. We do have a breakfast section here which you may like to browse for some of our recipes.  If I have this recipe of Breakfast Hash in the fridge, I love to have it for breakfast with or without an egg depending on what time of day it is. Normally though it is a piece of toast with either vegemite or sliced tomatoes or occasionally a bowl of cereal if I am in a hurry and even more occasionally a bowl of porridge.  I do like some of the toasted muesli recipes that have appeared in our latest recipe books here in Australia, For Food's Sake in particular has an absolute little beauty. For more leisurely breakfasts it is quite common here for people to get together for brunch where the meal is far more substantial.  My DH just wants cereal with cold milk every single day of his life - like Dede, he cannot stomach a cooked breakfast but will happily eat a full cooked breakfast for tea  ;D

Breakfast used to be the most boring meal of the day for me, but thankfully I'm loving it now because I've varied it a little:

Granueslie (Tenina's) & yoghurt
Weetbix smoothie (JD's)
Amy's Super Yummy Breakfast Berry Smoothie (from here)
Egg on toast
Burcher Muesli (in winter)
Porridge cooked in the MW (in winter)
Vegemite on toast if kids have eaten everything

I eat dried fruit and nuts for breakfast with some milk ( as if it was cereal ) 
Chookie you should put it "out there " when your tripping around I live in the Mollymook area I would have loved to catch up.

Normally I have 2 coffees and toast. Avocados on toast at the moment.
Weekends its a full cooked break fast.

I have the same breakfast almost everyday of the year. A bowl of sultana bran with a spoonful of physillium husks and cold milk. A glass of juice and a cup of tea. In winter I may have porridge. I really enjoy this for breakfast as I read the paper.
When we are in big hotels I pig out on the lovely food, but then miss lunch as I don't need it.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
