anything that goes in the toaster is a big hit here - crumpets, pikelets, English muffins, bagels, potato farls, waffles, toasted teacakes, raisin bread, pitta etc

porridge with (she choses which)
Honey
Jam
fruit
raisens(sp?)

toast with a choice of topping

unsweetnd cereals like

crumpets/croissants sometimes

or yoghurt and fruit

also (and because I love it)
GRANOLA!!!! with yogurt or milk

My DH seems to have a moral objection to toast. Personally I think toast and a piece of fruit is fine. He insists on cereal if he's 'doing' breakfast but DD1 is not keen on milk.

In our house its usually either Weetabix, eggs (soft boiled, fried or eggy bread), toast and marmite. Sometimes followed by an apple or banana depending on how hungry they are and how late we are for school! Weekends are bacon sarnies, pancakes.

boiled egg - quicker than you think.
beans on toast
tomatoes on toast
tomato soup (gross I know, but they love it!)
cheese on toast
tinned fishon toast
pate on toast

I think it is more important now they are back at school as mine eat hardly anything in the evening, but eat more at breakfast.

I guess you have to get over the breakfast food and offer anything edible that you approve of - even if you wouldn't contemplate it.

My DS loves malt loaf for breakfast. DD likes brioche with choc chips. We do rotate breakfasts otherwise it gets boring. Raisin pancakes sometimes, english muffins, crumpets and marmite, cheese and apple chopped in a bowl, pears and banana.
