What's Your Favorite Breakfast?

[Jastin]

I've woke up that last few days dreading my usual bowl of cereal. Everyone loves food so what are some of your favorite breakfast ideas?

[Kim]

Later this morning it will be microwaved oatmeal with a few almonds, raspberries, a dash of brown sugar and cinnamon. That's my latest breakfast jag. Once in awhile I have ramen noodles with an egg stirred into it, sort of the emergency option when I'm out of everything else. Some days at work the sales people bring in breakfast burritos. Way too rich for every day, but a nice change for now and then. In Thailand we had tiny coconut "pancakes" -- they were divine!

[QUINNPALMS]

My buddy from Venezuela makes arepas

Check it .....soooo good!

[palmislandRandy]

Oatmeal with a scoop of vanilla protean powder (Syntha 6). Sometimes I mash up some fruit. Tastes more like dessert! Yum

[sur4z]

...it depends on how much time I have and where breakfaast is available. The usual is plain yogurt topped with lots of blueberrys; weekends its eggs and fruit; and if out and available, cornbeef hash top with two poached eggs.

[MattyB]

I've never been much of a breakfast person, but as I get older I'm realizing the benefits of a healthy breakfast. Lately I've been trying to eat a yogurt at least and stick to only 1 cup of joe. This summer I've had lots of papaya from the garden. Paul told me that papaya is good for digestion. I do whatever he tells me to do.

[Jason in Orlando]

I'm generally not a fan of breakfast food, so I tend to eat a sandwich, pizza, or some pasta (if I eat it at all). I do enjoy a nice salad also; preferably with palm hearts and chick peas. Right now I'm working nights, so breakfast is really dinner anyways...

Nice...

[MattyB]

That reminds me, I used to drink beer for breakfast.

[dalmatiansoap]

nothing so fancy, but U cant beat good old cherry strudel

[DoomsDave]

Hmm.

The best breakfast is something spicy, like Kung Pao Chicken, Szechuan pork with pickled vegetables, or some Palm Society Stew, aka Chile Verde.

If necessary, a breakfast burrito is good, too, with plenty of bacon, egg and a bit of salsa.

[Jeff in St Pete]

Every once in a while I like to make a breakfast pizza. Make yourself a pizza crust, then whip up a couple eggs and pour over the crust, add crumbled bacon or sausage, shredded cheese, and bake.

[Palmlover]

Hawaiian Style LOCO MOCO and if you're really hungry add some SPAM or Portuguese Sausage too!

[Bill Austin]

[Gonzer]

Me too. Also, the benefits of doing 16 ounce curls in the morning gave me my exercise for the day too.

[Walter John]

Usually Banana and apple, or cereal.

About once or twice a week though it's poached eggs on toast, thanks to my chooks, nothing like fresh eggs..

[aussiearoids]

Sex on toast = penut-butter & vagimite

might make some

but think satay

[Jerry@TreeZoo]

Breakfast is my favorite meal. My family has made some traditions around it. When there is a holiday to celebrate, like Christmas or Easter or what have you, most people in my extended family have obligations for dinner with the in-laws so we decided to meat at my Mom's for breakfast. We usually have bacon and eggs but also there can be french toast or cinnamon rolls or even chocolate chip cookies. Let me tell you, you have not lived til you eat a bacon, chocolate chip cookie sandwich.

I have three brothers and we all live within 20 miles or so of each other. Several times a year we meet for a "Brother Breakfast" at our favorite place and usually eat outside unless it is raining.

You guessed what I like there, bacon and eggs.

Sometimes I go there with my son, and then for whatever reason, I always get steak and eggs (with a side of bacon!)

Recently, my Kiwanis Club voted to start meeting once a month for breakfast. The place we meet is a Hilton Hotel. I don't know exactly what will be on the menu but I can guess that there will be bacon and eggs. Probably some potatoes, some melon and some bread. Mmmmm!

[BS Man about Palms]

Probably 35 years ago I started putting cheese in homemade waffles.. It has been refined to a Homemade waffle made with egg whites fluffed, the whole thing, grill up some bacon, use the bacon drippings for the oil needed in the waffle... mix in some pecans, then just before closing the top, crumble in some bacon, a generous amount of shredded colby cheddar and close the lid. Grill to a light golden brown... then pour melted butter over the crispy top.. mmmmmmmmmmmmm

I call it the "Wisconnsin Waffle" and they asked if they could put it on the menu at a breakfast place by Mattys... till the freeway went thru..

I make it once a year at Christmas for family/friends.

How's your heart BS?? Once a year? right!

Here's one...

Boiled Ox tongue, chopped liver, Black pudding...mix in a blender with 2 raw eggs and sip slowly...

Normally I have porridge with a sliced banana and teaspoon of honey...

[palmazon]

currawong jaffles

is Jeff Nugent in the house?

[Jastin]

Mmmm....Homemade warm banana bread with butter and honey this morning.

[Jeff Searle]

Here at the Searle's house, it's not very often, but my favorite would be homemade sausage gravy over buscuits. Eggs included and with fried potatoes of course. Yum! Yum! Southern all the way. Andrea makes the gravy from scratch and it can't be beat! ( Hint....if your ever a guest and sleep over, it could very well be on the menu ) But usually, just some good healthy cereal in the am.

[Tassie_Troy1971]

I usually have vegimite or jam on toast .and sometimes fruit . Also Ethiopian yirgachef coffee freshly brewed .

Sometimes nutrigrain "iron man food "

[palmmermaid]

What I eat most days is a shredded wheat bisuit with a banana and farm fresh milk.

What my favorite is: fried salt mullet (we put these up every year for the winter) with 2 fried eggs (both fried in bacon grease) with home made biscuits and butter and a nice big glass of farm fresh whole milk to wash it all down with. And when you fry the eggs, there is enough grease in the pan to baste the ggs in it so they get a nice crispy edge and the white over the yolks is done. None of this over easy stuff.

And my cholesterol is low.

"salt mullet"?? Is that what I thnk it is?

[palmmermaid]

Salt mullet is what we made each fall. Daddy would buy about 100 pounds of freshly c aught mullet and bring them home. We would scale them,gut them, butterfly them and remove the backbone. Then we took 5 gallon metal buckets and layered the fish with rock salt. During the winter, we would take out the fish needed for breakfast the night before and soak it in milk. In the morning, we coated it in corn meal and fried it in bacon grease. We also salted the roe and fought over that!

It certainly was filling and kept us going when times were lean.

[BS Man about Palms]

Figured I could post a pic of a Wisconnsin Waffle ...

I could eat all this breakfast stuff

[sur4z]

...but I have been known to finish off the pizza from the night before and wash it down with whatever is left in someones glass...yum!

When can I come over Bill?

[Howeadypsis]

Of champions of course...

[palmislandRandy]

My arteries actually hardened up a bit after reading some of these suggestions. Yum

[Eric in Orlando]

Grits and an alligator pear (avocado). And the grits have to be real cooked grits not instant crap. Best with some kind of fried fish, usually catfish. Also a banana.

[Trópico]

Breakfast is the most important meal of my day. I can skip lunch or dinner but never ever a breakfast, or I will have a miserable day. Different stages in life made me add new favorites to my growing list.

- Corn meal (consistency is somewhat liquid and sweet, does NOT look or taste like corn grits). Just the way mom used to make it when I grew up. (This is my all time favorite breakfast dish)

- Pan sobao (Puerto Rican lard bread) toasted with butter.

- 2 strips of bacon. Save the grease to fry an egg over/medium (eggs a'la palmmermaid). Now, put the egg over a buttery pancake with maple syrup.

- Arepas con queso blanco (arepas w. white cheese).

- Colombian coffee with whole milk, preferably colombian too (trust me, tastes very different!).

- Cereal mix (non sweet organic fibrous cereal mixed with muesli) with whole milk.

- Thai cup cakes. (This easily rivals the first one)

- Dragon fruit, pineapple, strawberries, sweet papaya, squeezed orange juice.

[palmmermaid]

Tropico, They all sound good.

My grandmother made corn pone cakes - made with corn meal, not grits. She would fry them and then we put ribbon cane syrup on them - yum! And if anyone ever tastes a fried egg that was fried in bacon grease, they would never go back to the bland eggs fried in oil on a grill.

I still use lard for pie crusts and other pastries. Nothing else makes a pie crust as light and flaky. And if you look at the label, lard is no worse than the GMO oils or shortening on the market today. I don't use it often but it certainly makes a difference in the finished product.

[paulgila]

i agree with kim,those little coconut pancakes in thailand were amazing! there is a guy who make em here in Sd at the farmers market in

little italy.

after the biennial in thailand we went to malaysia & we got hooked on the indian style breakfast-- fresh off the griddle roti with lamb curry & eggs on the side.

[tjwalters]

A sweet roll in bed with honey.

[DoomsDave]

Eggs of Doom:

6 eggs, scrambled

6-7 whole scallions, or a like amount of Chinese chives, with roots removed, chopped fine

bacon, already fried, broken into small pieces, to taste (maybe 6 strips?) or ham or canadian bacon or small chopped shrimp OR a mixture of all four

olive oil or palmmermaid bacon grease

soy sauce to taste

(high blood pressure meds, where needed)

Fold the scallions and bacon (or whatever) into the eggs. There should be so much scallion that the eggs are all green, as if you folded cut grass into them. More is better.

Heat the fat nice and hot but not burning

Put the egg mixture in the fat and cook it to taste scraping and mixing constantly to prevent burning (I like it well-done, just a bit scorched) add soy sauce to taste, serve, if you must, with plain boiled white rice, esp. CalRose . . .

Watch the hawgs devour . . . .

Also keeps well for a day or so, though they never last that long around my place.
