What do you have for breakfast (Uk\Us)

[isitfridaay]

I have one slice of toast or a bowl of cereal (cornflakes shreddies porridge in winter)

About 5 times a year crumpets or. Croissant / cinnamon bun.

Do people have cooked breakfast everyday?

Inspired by watching re run of ER (the whole thing from pilot to end, currently s6 ep 22) A few innocent lines of reference to breakfasts which I have read too much into )

Yoghurt, granola and a banana or if I have more time, scrambled eggs on toast. My favourite meal of the day.

One poached egg on wholewheat toast for me (UK), DD has two slices of white toast with chocolate spread, DS has rice crispies or porridge with jam.

Weekends the kids will regularly have pancakes/croissants.

I rotate between greek yogurt with fruit or nuts; scrambled eggs topped with either avocado, smoked salmon or cherry tomatoes; baked beans with grated cheese on top. I've done away with carbs at breakfast as they don't sustain me.

Porridge on a work day, toast at weekends and on Fridays and egg and cheese McMuffin uk

UK
weekdays, nothing but I often have breakfast type things for lunch: berries, seeds, banana, yoghurt and granola or avocado on a protein bagel

Weekends: either a veggie
sausage sandwich or scrambled tofu, mushrooms, tomatoes and spinach on toast

UK - Some days I’ll wake up late and just have a spoon of peanut butter out of the jar and a banana in the car 😂 It varies though. My kids are gannets in the mornings and have about 3 courses and I will usually have a bit of what they have! Cereal, mainly Weetabix, smoothies, yogurts, toast and tonnes of fruit. Bread is always homemade so it’s not every day. Or we’ll have muffins or pancakes or croissants every few weeks or so as a treat.
Weekends usually involves cooked - eggs all ways, bacon, tomatoes etc.
This morning we had Nutella on toast with sliced strawberries on and cantaloupe slices.

Cigarette and a black coffee, two cigarettes at weekends

Carbs make you hungry, unfortunately.
Conversely, fasting actually reduces your appetite. Counterintuitive, I know.

If I were to eat any of the delicious sounding toast / porridge (with honey and fruit or Nutella! 😍), it would set me up for snacking all day.

Toast
Yoghurt w fruit or granola
Omelette

But mostly toast

Spinach, kale and frozen mango smoothie with added water around 11ish although I have water with lemon and a fruit tea when I get up. I’ve never eaten breakfast since I was 14, I always hated it and it makes me feel sick. My husband and children are ravenous in the morning though, it’s normally porridge with berries and honey followed by toast and fruit. At the weekends they have bacon, black or white pudding (sometimes both), haggis, sausage, eggs, potato scone, mushrooms, tomatoes and beans with toast.

Today because it's the weekend, a toasted bagel with butter, avocado and crispy streaky bacon.
Weekdays, any of the following - 2 McDs hash browns and ketchup, bowl of porridge with almond milk and brown sugar, buckwheat pancakes with lemon juice and sugar, rye bread and soft cheese, Alpen, tinned mandarin and yogurt, a banana, toast and marmalade.

I went through a phase of having soup for breakfast in winter after staying with some folks who culturally didn't eat typical breakfast foods.

Gestational Diabetes and then weaning baby inspired me to change my ways - although I do still love a large bowl of Coco Pops or Krave.

Typically now -

Protein yogurt, berries (always have frozen in), nuts, occasionally dark choc or peanut butter

Porridge with full fat milk, same toppings as above, or grated apple with cinnamon and raisins, mango (again frozen) with coconut…

Some form of quick egg with toast, avocado, tomatoes

Pancakes in many forms - batch cook and stick in the fridge to reheat. With sweet or savoury toppings

Homemade courgette/cheese/egg muffins

Pre made breakfast oat slices…

I have a cooked brunch everyday. Usually a couple of hash browns and sausages cooked in air fryer, a couple of bits of bacon cooked under grill and a couple of eggs either s rambled or cooked with a couple of squirts of fry lite. I have fruit mid afternoon then a cooked meal at night.

Don't have time for breakfast 95% of the time. The other 5% is a bowl of cereal.

Different every day

Today it was strawberries

Winter tends to be porridge

I do love toast

Sometimes muesli or cornflakes

More often than not it's just a cup of tea followed by coffee

Coffee, and a piece of toast with honey, occasionally Nutella. Sometimes yoghurt with fruit. Rarely a croissant. Never, ever cooked breakfast, not even in hotels, just Bleuch. UK.

Overnight oats or bran flakes with raisins, strawberries & raspberries or porridge in winter.
Love a pain au chocolat in France.
Rarely have cooked breakfast unless in hotel.
Very occasionally do bacon butties.

UK
Coffee and:
Toast with butter and marmalade or marmite
Or
Greek yogurt with homemade granola and defrosted berries
Or
Toast with avocado, salt & lemon juice and maybe a fried egg
Or
A banana

UK. I usually have non-dairy yoghurt, fresh fruit and a sprinkle of seeds. With black coffee.

3-4 boiled eggs, banana or other fruit, protein shake.

Only eat clean so no breads/pastas/cereals etc.

Most mornings I have fruit smoothie made with kefir, banana, chia seeds, frozen berries and mango. Sometimes wholemeal toast with marmite or peanut butter or eggs. Occasionally a pastry. In the UK.

I’m the same re a carby breakfast. Makes me feel awful an hour later. I’d rather have nothing.

I have a 2-course ‘cooked’ breakfast virtually every day — fruit and kefir to start, followed by either a cheese and tomato omelette, scrambled eggs, mushrooms and chorizo, fried eggs, mushrooms and grilled tomatoes etc. Followed by a coffee because I don’t like drinking coffee on an empty stomach.

It means I don’t snack between meals.

4-6 squares of 70 percent chocolate and a handful of nuts.

Weekdays
Unsweetened muesli, with greek yoghurt and honey.
Or
Porridge, with berries or raisins, and honey.

Weekend
Scrambled egg on toast, with mushrooms, and sometimes some turkey bacon as well.
Or
Full English breakfast at the local greasy spoon.

2 coffee's first hour of being awake

3 hours later, 1 slice toast, 2 eggs and hot sauce
