What do you ^really^ feed your dc for breakfast?

[Margaritte]

Just that really. Am curious and nosy

Dd1 (12), whatever she'll eat, this morning was a mullerrice and a banana, some mornings she'll have crumpets or waffles.
Ds1(8), dry coco pops and an apple
Dts (18 months), porridge with fruit or honey, or mini wheat things with fruit inside, then a croissant or brioche, then a banana, and often some raisins or toast or something.
Dd1 eats the most unhealthy crap in the mornings, but we've had years of breakfast battles, and at least this way she's eating something. She eats healthily all the rest of the time so I've given up worrying about it!

Weekdays - quick and easy stuff
Porridge (el cheapo supermarket sacks) with sugar or syrups if desired
Toast (whatever bread to hand) with peanut butter (Meridian Natural, coz we're dead posh like) or just butter. Sometimes Jam.

Weekends - more time to 'cook'
Greek Brekkie - griddled halloumi and avocado, Pastourma/loukaniko sausage, scrambled eggs, maybe some bacon (if we have some) fried onions and mushrooms :)
English Brekkie - sausage, bacon, eggs, toast, beans
Pancakes - with the usual toppings
Dippy eggs and soldiers

Every so often
Cereal: There'll be leftover rice crispies or cornflakes from baking and they'll get eaten up for breakfast.
Chocolate: Obligatory for Christmas and birthdays
Pastries: Costco tray of mixed ones that last about five minutes in this house
Out for breakfast: whatever is on the menu

...we never have fruit for breakfast.

Croissants
Pain au chocolat
Fruit - usually kiwi or oranges
Toast - with butter, honey or chocolate spread
Cereal - not very popular though
Cooked breakfast
Bacon sandwiches
Scrambled egg & toast
Eggy bread and baked beans
Homemade flapjack
Brioche
Hot cross buns
English muffins toasted with butter

"shit in a box" as someone called it on here - cereal to anyone else.

At the moment the choices are cornflakes or weetabix. Followed by jammy toast (wholemeal sliced as one saving grace unless your are part of the anti bread brigade) and fruit.

Drinks on offer are water, fruit juice or milk.

They are 2 and 5

Oh and Sundays i cook pastries - found them in the freezer aisle and they are lovely

DS is only 12 months old but almost eats more than I do for breakfast... But still stays on the 25th weight centile!

Every day he has:
30g ready brek mixed with 100ml milk
1/2 slice of marmite on toast (sometimes a whole slice)
1 or 2 rich tea biscuits or oatmeal crackers.
1/2 cup of water or cows milk to drink

I get the impression he'd still eat more after all that if I offered something else he likes, like a yoghurt. But that already seems plenty!

mrsPear you offer fruit joice you know that's the Devil's Own Milk, right??

dd age 2 and a half has a toddler bowl of cereal: Cheerios, shreddies or Special K. She also had one piece of toast and marmite with no crusts. She will not accept variety on this format!

DD is 12 and is at school early most days (7am, 7.30am and leaving the house any time from 6.30am).

Peanut butter sandwich on wholemeal
Scrambled egg wrap
Protein shake
Wholemeal crumpets with peanut butter

Weekends are beans on wholemeal or scrambled egg on wholemeal mainly.

She has a long day with lots of sport so I try to get protein into her to keep her going and avoid anything sugary.

Weekdays it's cereal/fruit/yoghurt. Weekends full fry up with tattie scones etc, egg in a cup with toast, piece and bacon/sausage/egg

My twins are 2.8

Mini shredded wheat, slice of wholewheat toast with marmite,/cream cheese/honey, fruit
Scrambled or fried egg on wholewheat toast, fruit
Eggy bread, fruit
Beans on toast, fruit
Porridge oats, fruit
Semolina porridge, fruit

Fruit is usually a combination of blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, banana, kiwi fruit, pear, apple, melon, figs, nectarines, usually 2/3 of these.

Mostly dd (3) will have either Weetabix or porridge with fruit or muesli, fruit and Greek yogurt or seeded bread toast with a nut butter and banana. Milk or water to drink.

Sometimes we will have brioche/pastries or something cooked - pancakes, eggs etc.

Most often toast and marmite
Cheerios
Yoghurt with some fruit ( banana or blueberries or strawberries popular)
Some watered down orange juice
At weekends a croissant and if feeling extravagant a boiled egg and soldiers

Weetabix with warm milk, berries and grapes, a sweet Aldi roll (from a bag of pain au choc or similar) they might have some toast and jam when the rolls are finished for the week.

Dd sometimes has cornflakes and scrambled egg but ds is v dedicated to the above!

Toast crumpets porridge or wheatabix most of the time.

Ds1 has

Chocolate torsades
Waffles
Hm pancakes with bacon and syrup
Chocolate weetabix
Bacon and eggs, hash browns, beans
Crumpets

Ds2 has

Beans
Dippy eggs and soldiers
Tea and British biscuits
Scones with jam and cream

Weekdays usually homemade granola with yoghurt and fruit, either banana, chopped apple or defrosted frozen berries. Occasionaly scrambled eggs and toast/pancakes. DD1 is a zombie in the mornings so she frequently runs out with a banana or handful of nuts pressed into her hand as she whizzes past me realizing she's late. Today I gave her a HM banana flapjack.

Weekends it varies. Toast with jam/Nutella/avocado/cheese, pancakes with same or fruit and honey, scrambled eggs with toast/ham/tomatoes/bacon/smoked salmon.

A couple of weeks ago we had packers in ransacking sorting the house for moving. I decided not to cook that week so they had cereal with the option of fruit for breakfast every day. Dinners weren't much better but it was only 1 week.

Dd10 will have either cheese on crackers with cherry tomatoes and an orange juice or cheese on toast or rice crispies or something similar.
ds10 has an enormous bowl of muesli with greek yoghurt and an orange squash every single morning.
ds13 has toast or a teacake or a muffin with butter and some nuts like almonds and a fizzy water every single morning.
i have porridge and coffee every morning so they get their repetitive habits fromme.
first morning of every school holiday is pancakes though.

Ds (11) doesn't really like breakfast. He is like me and doesn't feel hungry first thing. He will have one slice of toast with peanut butter, marmite or honey and a piece of fruit - banana or large orange usually. He'll only eat cereal occasionally - weetabix or muesli or honeynut cornflakes - maybe once a week.

Dd is a breakfast kind of girl and is happy to eat practically anything as soon as she gets up. She has porridge most days, or two pieces of toast or crumpets or muffins. Her favourite toast topping is marmite, even above the beloved nutella. She also will eat fruit at breakfast, usually half an apple or a small banana or a satsuma.

They drink tea.

Poached/ boiled eggs or omelette, beans/ spinach/ mushrooms/ whatever's in

greek yogurt and fruit

Porridge and fruit

DS 3 & 1/2y & DD 19m have either porridge with strawberries & honey or seeded toast with peanut butter & a banana. Occasionally blueberry pancakes on a Sunday

DS(1.4) has 1 weetabix and milk, warm, then some porridge, then fruit if hungry with water to drink.

DD (3) has weetabix or muesli in variable amounts and then fruit if she wants it. She eats well but terrible at drinking so has half juice half water at breakfast in a bid to keep the constipation at bay. She isn't allowed to eat until she's finished her drink, which is the only way I've found to get her to drink.

Pot Noodle and a can of Red Bull each.

...Or cereal, toast and fruit

DD4 has porridge with fruit purée, or cereal, or toast. She also has fruit and yogurt usually. Ds12 has toast or cereal. Ds17 usually takes a quorn sausage wrap to college. Weekends are the same for DD, but the boys have something cooked......bacon sarnie for DS12, and beans on toast for my veggie boy!
