What are you having for breakfast?

[Baronage-Phase]

A big fruit scone with bitter and blackberry jam.
Tea.

 

[Thimble Queen]

Home made hash browns, scrambled eggs, Bajan pepper sauce and coffee.

Sounds fit

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Had peppered smoked mackerel and colcannon mash today. Same as for tea last night - I must be needing a top up of omega 3.

It was, lovely. I am not regretting buying my new deep fat fryer

That's exactly why I can't buy one - I'd be living off fried food every day.

Although there's nowt wrong with chips for breakfast.

I resisted for years for the same reason but tbh I eat so much butter already it will probably do me good to alternate with oil

There is also something to be said for frying at the right temperature; much less fat comes off the food once it's done than it used to when I pan fried.

 

[pogo 10]

A fried egg on a slice of seeded bread with basil and a few cherry tomatoes. A handful of seeds, nuts, a few red grapes and 2 camomile teas.

 

[Baronage-Phase]

Scrambled egg on wholemeal toast with some ham off the bone and a few warmed cherry tomatoes with a drizzle of balsamic glaze.
Coffee

 

[Thimble Queen]

Cup of tea and an episode of Fringe.

 

[Thimble Queen]

And now a fishfinger sarnie

 

[chemn]

Cake and tea shortly after waking. And I just had a breakfast bap from mc'colls that was bloody lush.

 

[moose]

Couple of slices of malted/seeded bread with butter and damson jam. Trying not to think about the 2 little Madeleines in my work bag.

 

[Baronage-Phase]

Vanilla yoghurt and a chopped up banana with a sprinkling of muesli on top.
Coffee

 

[Hellsbells]

plain yoghurt, chopped banana, cinnamon, chopped nuts, 1 weatabix, a few mixed berries
coffee
toast with butter

I need to learn to eat less for breakfast. I always eat more than I need and then feel like I need a lie down afterwards

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Scrambled chilli eggs on toast - six eggs and four slices of toast, with lots of butter.

 

[moonsi til]

Mini fruits & nut weetabix with almond milk & cup of Twinnings Everyday Tea.

Six?!? totally appropriate for the number of slices though.

 

[Thimble Queen]

Three plain old rice cakes

I have that as my snack AFTER breakfast!

I normally do six eggs at a time - it makes sense, otherwise the amount of eggs looks a bit sad. Eggs like company.

When I really can't be arsed, I'll eat a pack of rice cakes by themselves (with water of course).

I wonder what rice cakes would be like with peanut butter or jam on them. I've never thought about doing this - I might have to experiment.

I have them with hummus normally, and some tomato if I've got them in. But I'm at work and I forgot the hum at home. Luckily I had some chickpeas knocking about in my cupboard for lunch

They're really nice with peanut butter. That's my after dinner snack

 

[moonsi til]

Yep lovely with peanut butter, I sometimes have before the gym.

How do you manage to stop the chickpeas rolling off the dry rice cake.

Separate foods! Chickpea get eaten out of a bowl with salt, pepper and chilli flakes.

I was picturing you carefully pinning them to the rice cake, one by one.

I already end with food down me after most meals

My preferred method of eating almost any food is with a spoon - much more reliable, if a bit weird sometimes.

Me too tbh. I don't understand people who eat a curry with a knife and fork. You (the general you) wouldn't eat stew with a knife and fork so why with do it with curry, which is basically spicy stew. People

It's burritos, and a large chest , that cause me the problems with spillage most often tbh. It's one of the reasons I wear mostly black

If the food doesn't initially lend itself to using a spoon I'll cut it up so I can eat like an ungainly toddler. Noodles type food can be quickly cut up with kitchen scissors, and it's usually possible to cut up chunks of chicken in a curry with the edge of the spoon.

My moobs aren't of the size to catch errant food, so it ends up in my crotch instead.
