Christmas Day breakfast must have items

[NemophilistRebel]

What are your must have items on your Christmas morning breakfast?

Just something light to not ruin appetites! Bagel and smoked salmon.

Pigs in blanket rolls with ketchup to eat in the car while driving 200 miles at 5am...

Fresh orange, champagne, croissants, crispy smoked bacon, cream cheese

Bacon roll.

coffee and pink fizz

Something that won't fill you up too much.

I remember last year me and DD sat eating sausage sandwiches and DS came in and said 'what madness is this'???

I think we all just have cereals or left-over food from the detritus of Christmas Eve still lurking in the living room. No way could we think of a proper breakfast!

Sherry. Tea and a biscuit before mass. Smoked salmon and champagne after mass which serves as brunch/starter

Oh and I used to let the dc start on their selection boxes before church.

I just have a tiny bowl of cereal and a brew, as I want to save myself, and need to get ready to get to my dad's for dinner.

The last few years we have had a cooked breakfast at around 10/11am, and then not had Xmas lunch until around 5ish. It's worked much better as no-one wants to eat too early, and we're not really ready for lunch by lunchtime

Chocolate. Start as you mean to go on

I do a plate of toast and crumpets and we all help ourselves between santa presents and family presents! Sometimes croissants and pain au chocolat if I feel fancy. Nothing big so we don't spoil our dinner.

Dh & the dc like sausage sandwiches, I like either a croissant or a pain au chocolate (I make big batches & freeze in to portions of 1 or 2 ready for baking). We have breakfast about 8:30/9 & then our roast at about 1:30 so plenty of time for them to get hungry again.

Bacon sandwiches or croissants, coffee, juice. We eat lunch about 2 so not a massive breakfast.

Chocolate coins

Chocolate and a satsuma from the stocking. That's all I have apart from a cup of tea. The kids may eat cereal or toast, but we don't want to spoil appetites

Bacon muffins with brown sauce. These have become a Christmas tradition in our house.

Croissants with melted cheese and bacon inside and washed down with Buck’s Fizz.

Bucks fizz.

Toast an English muffin. Spread on some salmon terrine. Pile scrambled eggs* on top. Add smoked salmon. Lots of black pepper. Devour!!

• Extra decadent Xmas scramblies. Add one extra yolk for every two eggs and a splash of double cream. Only to be consumed at Christmas!

Rice porridge

Definitely a light breakfast, so bacon roll, juices and prosecco. We aim for Christmas dinner around midday, and cheese and biscuits around 6 so a light breakfast is fine

Coffee
Bacon roll
Buck’s Fizz

Bacon sandwiches, Buck’s Fizz, fresh coffee, orange juice for the kids. Lots of chocolate. We don’t eat Christmas dinner until 3 or 4 so we tend to eat quite a lot late morning.

If I manage to find the pork breakfast patties in Aldi again we will be having them with eggs and muffins a la McDonald's but 100 times better. If not them then Tesco are meant to have similar ones but our nearest is in another town.
