Coffee isn't breakfast?!

Bob's Red Mill makes a great hot cereal; Mighty Fine Hot, I think it's called. I eat it plain or with an egg cooked on top. DH sweetens his.

I try to keep soup in the fridge, so there's always lentils or chicken soup if someone needs food but doesn't want to cook.

A few cheese cubes and an apple. Peanut butter, with or without anything else. Eggs in all their forms. A handful of almonds and grapes to match. Veggies and hummus. Leftover baked sweet potato is a favorite with my husband.

An egg, slice of bacon, and a slice of whole wheat toast (or dark rye toast) with real butter. That's the standard breakfast around here.

Add me to the list of people who don't/can't do carby foods in the mornings. I rarely have typical breakfast foods for breakfast. Today I'll probably have leftover chicken salad.

We try to limit grains.

Today's breakfast was 2 eggs and a banana for one kid, 2 eggs and greek yogurt for the other kid, 2 eggs for DH and 2 eggs and the remaining greek yogurt for me. That's a fairly normal breakfast for us.

I think we're in the same boat. Course, mine also often includes hungry people who are hopefully eyeing me, hinting that it sure is chilly out, do we have any XYZ? Or, in a small voice, "Mommy, want brekkist. Sit at table. Make eggs? Juice?"

Eh, could be worse.

Home-made cranberry muffins. I bake a dozen muffins 2 or 3 times/week. They are low-fat and use honey/maple syrup instead of sugar. I have two for breakfast almost every morning (they're small). DH has toast for breakfast and takes 2 muffins to work to eat at morning coffee break. I switch between cranberry, blueberry, rhubarb, and zucchini. I'm lucky that DH & I are both the kind of people who don't mind eating the same thing day after day! Blueberry are DH's favourite, cranberry are mine

I made a big batch of chicken taco soup, with two kinds of beans and white meat chicken. I've been having a bowl of that for breakfast.

I made it through without eating breakfast and just drank a lot of water. I appreciate all the really great ideas and these give me some planning time before I have to do this all over again in the morning.

Cook bacon till it's mostly done but still flooby, then line greased muffin tins with it. Break an egg into each cup, add a spoon of tortilla sauce. Fill your other muffin tins with muffins. All go in the oven together. The eggs should be done about the same time as the muffins.
Toad in the hole- melt butter in a skillet and use a drinking glass to cut a circle out of the middle of a slice of bread. Throw the toast in the skillet and break and egg into the middle of the skillet. Best done over medium I think.
The video for wakey wakey never downloaded for me.
