Oh for the days of a full English then toast and marmalade or else bagels, cream cheese and smoked salmon, sigh. |

Can't eat feta cheese (sodium is too high) nor olives (same reason) as they push my blood pressure through the roof - and no red meat allowed at all - so nope, that's out for me... let alone butter, lol. Eggs Benedict was a favourite of mine pre-stroke (Ham, Bacon or Smoked Salmon if I was splashing the cash), or if I was making breakfast at home then a full English - with a few slices of good bacon maybe an English breakfast sausage or 2, mushrooms, tomatoes and eggs - and a fried slice of course, perhaps a few beans or a potato rosti - oh and toast on the side.. (with butter and marmalade ready) - but it'll be a fair while before I can have that again! :) |
Re: Breakfast Choices
I had a couple of BLT's with mayo, mmmmmm.

Re: Breakfast Choices
If your ever in Vancouver and want french toast be sure to go to yolks. Hands down best french toast I have ever had.

Re: Breakfast Choices
Corned beef hash with fried eggs on top, toast, and a can of beer.

Re: Breakfast Choices
The increasingly popular battered sausage. Because I didn't mix the whole package of meat I did not include an egg, so it was lean ground beef, some chopped green onion, Montreal steak spice, touch of sea salt, breadcrumb, and this time I added a little squirt of HP sauce. It only takes a little beer to make enough batter for this but due to drinking the rest while cooking it becomes a 2 beer breakfast in total.

Re: Breakfast Choices
Sausage and eggs with mushrooms and refried beans.

Re: Breakfast Choices
There large glasses of water. Apparently (according to my girlfriend) water is the new bacon. :(

Is she aware that over hydration is as dangerous as dehydration? https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/318619.php https://www.stylecraze.com/articles/...oo-much-water/ I was told to drink around 2 to 2.5 litres a day, total fluid intake.. not just water :) Beer counts :D |
Re: Breakfast Choices
Note to self:
Do not come in here around breakfast time. Wanders off to raid the fridge of tasty eats. . I really have to try to make a battered sausage or twenty. MrBEVS will love me for it and so would my taste buds & stomach. . |
Re: Breakfast Choices
I was thinking about kippers, but opted for bacon and eggs instead. By sheer willpower I kept from having a beer with this, though the sea salt on the chips was just right - not too much... maybe I earned one...

Re: Breakfast Choices
This time I had kippers (with chips and toast), and although I didn't have a beer with yesterday's breakfast, today I did.

Re: Breakfast Choices
I had avocado toast. Of course I naffing did. :frown:

Re: Breakfast Choices
There was a partial can of flat beer left from last night, and I have bags of cheese cubes left over from Christmas in the freezing compartment, so the decision was made to have rarebit. Cheese melted in half-and-half and the beer, a half tsp of Dijon, grated pepper and milk and flour to thicken, served on toasted pumpernickel. I made enough rarebit for 2 so now I have to think of what to do with a cup of cheese sauce.

After reading the first bit of your post I didn't think this breakfast was going to turn out very well, but it did - yum! Re the leftover cheese sauce - pour over cauliflower or broccoli and bake in the oven, or make some macaroni cheese.

Re: Breakfast Choices
Corned beef hash with fried eggs and toast, lashings of Frank's Red Hot.
|
Re: Breakfast Choices
Eggs on toast, chips, and a couple of the battered sausage things. These are hot Italian sausage with onion, parsley, and Swiss cheese in them.

Re: Breakfast Choices
Caretaker, you do like spicy foods. Fortunately, my husband is like me and don't eat anything that is spicy hot or curry.
I have too many favorite breakfast things. Some days it is French Toast (which isn't French) or poached eggs on English Muffins (which aren't English) or American pancakes (not crepes). Love corned beef hash with two eggs up and toast or a lovely western omelet with ham, peppers and onions or a runny bacon and egg on a hard roll. |

Re: Breakfast Choices
Avocado and cheese toast, with bacon and eggs on top.

Re: Breakfast Choices
I dislike avocado and thought that was pastrami LOL. Would have preferred to see poached eggs on toast with the eggs being runny not well done. We rarely eat fried foods. I notice that you like much of your foods fried.

Re: Breakfast Choices
I think eggs are probably my single favourite food of all, I reckon I could live on eggs.
Breakfast today - like most days - is yoghurt, muesli and berries. Lunch today - like most days - is two cold soft-boiled eggs. |

Re: Breakfast Choices
My once a month Sunday treat :D
1 or 2 slices of Lou's back bacon (it's just the 'eye' of meat, 85% less fat than standard back bacon), 4 mushrooms (grilled, no grease), 1 poached egg and a slice of wholegrain prebiotic toast, half with the egg and half after with a smear of marmalade (no butter or marg)... Living (not) large! |

Re: Breakfast Choices
I went to get the last of half a dozen packs of Lou's that I bought when it was inexplicably $1.99.
And I found two in the freezer :thumbsup: |

Good for you! A few years ago Giant Tiger had the big chunks of Lou's back bacon frozen for really cheap and I hit that pretty hard while it was available.
No dead animals, nothing brown or anything in a box (giggity) or a packet. And despite the copious amounts of beer I consume I've lost over 2 and half stone and I wasn't overweight to begin with. :( I wonder if Bob Geldof is around? |
Re: Breakfast Choices
2x BLT with mayo.
