I rarely have breakfast but last week somebody gave me 6 duck eggs, the size of chicken eggs.
I fried 2, together in a small pan, in butter and folded them into a couple of buttered slices of the Co-op’s crusty round cob with a dollop of tomato ketchup.
I’ve had this every day since. If the bread isn’t fresh, I just semi-toast it. No duck eggs? Well chicken eggs taste the same.
Brilliant – with either a double espresso or a big glass of well-worcestered tomato juice.
those heck sausages are actually pretty good, my middle daughter prefers them. Anyway, awesome looking breakfast, it’s nearly tea time here, my mouth is watering!
I love breakfast!! Bacon sarnie (obvs), full English, if work is paying and you’re in a hotel, homemade granola, pastries when I was in Denmark, current fave is almond croissant from Northern Rye in the Toon, oldest fave was Shreddies, cos we were only allowed them on speciul occasions.
A fortuitous thread resurrection. I had my breakfast horizons widened yesterday. We’re in Pembrokeshire and having gone out early on the road bike I met up with Mrs Binners for breakfast.
On top of a breakfast barm (they may have other names for it here) they’d added a warm cheese and herb Welshcake. It was the absolute shizzle!
Let’s see if I can do the image post thing from my phone
6 days a week, breakfast will be 2 duck eggs (scrambled in microwave) and half a tin of baked beans. Sometimes I will have a slice of bread with it if there is some proper stuff in the house (we eat very little bread) and occasionally I get a fried slice of celeriac under the egg in lieu of bread. If you haven’t ever tried it, I can seriously recommend it. Other than that I may get a bowl of porridge, especially if some milk needs using up quick.
The coffee from the brekkie stall is rubbish but the food is good, if expensive. Bacon and egg sandwich is lovely but it’s £6.50. At least the breakfast club meet is free 🙂
IMO an important function of breakfast is to precipitate the morning constitutional. Many of my fellow trades folk drive in really early sans breakfast into the big smoke. breakfast is a zero roughage McDs. Constitutional is a then very laboured and smelly mid afternoon effort usually in some poor punters home (or on full refurb jobs sometimes in unplumbed in sanitry ware!).
The Chickenman dislikes porridge but has found a bowl of it with a banana and soft fruit to have an almost instantaneous effect…twice round the bowl and pointy at both ends leaving a glowing evacuated feeling that, in a weird kind of way is almost sexual! 🙂
I hope I haven’t lowered the tone…
Crunchy Nut. Sometimes toast if I’ve run out of Crunchy Nut, and I’m not working. Bugger doing anything fancy at twenty past five in the morning, when I’m leaving for work at six.
Favourite breakfast: Kegeree and toast
(Flaked smoked haddock, chopped boiled egg, cold basmati rice all mixed up with some turmeric and curry powder.
Fried in butter.
A mixture of 3 different cereals. Favourite is banana weetabix bites, cherios, and, apricot shredded wheat bites. Currently making do with 2 plain own-brand weetabix, own-brand shreddies 🙁
At the weekend, swiftly followed by a frothy coffee from the machine from freshly ground beans (but these days just cheap kilo bag of beans from the supermarket). Our posh breakfasts, salmon on scrambled egg, etc, usually end up being around lunch time, if we have them.
Love a bit of kedgeree, never had it for breakfast though.
We have a waffle plate with the new toastie maker. Has anyone get a good waffle recipe please? Now that strawberries are in season, I’m looking forward to a breakfast of waffle and fresh fruit.
Binners – that robin is vicious and is eyeing up that Welsh cake, one false move from you and that robin will attack, going in for the kill. Mantle the food with your whole body.
Well, thanks to having to do a low fodmap diet for the next 6 weeks it’s now lactose-free yogurt blueberries/raspberries, or a hard-boiled egg and at the weekends spelt sourdough and egg.
