I had scrambled eggs and mushrooms. Our local Mozza's has started putting out marked down veg in the morning, for as cheap as 20p, so I go in at 8 and stock up. Saving me a fortune and we're eating a lot more veg. I am still waiting for the final '4 for 20p' avocado to ripen, it's taking days!

It's in cups, but you can find a conversion chart online I'm sure.

I don't put cardamom in, I use dried ginger instead, and I prefer mixed seeds. Don't bother with coconut flakes either - it's a mix n match/whatever you have in kind of recipe anyway. Couldn't be easier! I usually put a squirt of maple syrup over it when it's in the bowl too, cos I have a sweet tooth.

Right after eating it I remembered that I managed to get a cheap train upgrade to first class, so I'll get a second breakfast there for free

 

[Saffy]

Hotel breakfast -
A yoghurt and granola bowl
A toasted bagel with scrambled eggs and grilled tomatoes.
Orange juice and a little banana and pineapple smoothie.
A cup of tea and a pain au chocolate.
I'm fit to bursting but I don't plan on eating till 8pm

There's a pancake station though.

Porridge, same as ever.

But our microwave is out of action so I'm having to make it on the hob like it's medieval times.

Sad days

I don’t like making porridge in the microwave. It acts weird. It becomes a living organism, like the single cell creatures that fall on Spock’s back in Operation Annihilate. I much prefer the hob.

I'll have to go back to hob now I've moved but for the last year I've been doing mine with pinhead oats in a pan on top of the multifuel stove overnight

I find the texture is more to my liking.

And I use a huge bowl so it doesn't overflow

[jontz01]

4 scrambled eggs and an avo, piled up on a single piece piece of grainy toast.

Juice of 3 limes and a lemon, honey, pinch of pink salt and water in a 2 pint tankard.

Roll one up for the bike ride and dash out the door. Snacking on cashews, keeps me going til at least 4.19pm when its time to knock off.

This is pretty much my routine if I'm doing highly physical but low risk stuff.

Yea I'm happy for chef Mike to cook my oats. Massive bowl for sure. I also thicken and water them down (with milk since im a heathen and not properly Scottish) 3 times over, takes about 7 mins with rest time for that soft and creamy readybrek appeal before giving it a good dollop of honey or nutella like a proper wrongun.

 

[sojourner]

Homemade muesli.

This again.

 

[ouirdeaux]

Coffee, kabanos and dark chocolate Hobnobs. I feel vaguely guilty.

 

[sojourner]

Porridge, blueberries, pumpkin seeds, maple syrup.

 

[danny la rouge]

Three Richmond veggie sausages on a toasted muffin with HP sauce. Stovetop espresso.

 

[nottsgirl]

Huge bowl of kefir with defrosted frozen berries. 2 avocados. Aeropress coffee.

Recipe?

You don't really need a recipe for muesli. I go roughly 50% oats, 50% everything else: dried fruit, nuts, seeds, coconut flakes, whatever you fancy. I usually include: seed mix, raisins, chopped apricots, brazils, walnuts, cranberries, coconut flakes. Banana chips are nice but a mistake if you're going to soak it.

Today I had what a friend calls porridge pancakes: apple and oat pancakes with Greek yoghurt, raspberries and maple syrup.

 

[sojourner]

Toasted and buttered home-baked 8 seed wholemeal bread, slathered with bramble jelly. Pint cup of Columbian coffee.

Do you toast yours in the oven?

 

[sojourner]

I had homemade muesli again. Left out the ginger, only used sweet cinnamon, toasted everything nicely. Fucking NOM.

 

[RubyToogood]

Do you toast yours in the oven?

No. It hadn't occurred to me that you could without the oil and honey involved in granola, but as I don't favour granola I wouldn't anyway.

Toasted oats are better than raw oats. They’re the basis of lots of recipes, like cranachan: Classic cranachan recipe
