Breakfast

[pebble]

Unfortunately in my regular day to day I´ve struggled to change from cereal which I think is pathetic. But I guess I´ve been chowing down on it for 30 or so years and it´s a tough habit to break at that time in the morning.

You could always write "diabetes" on the cereal box and see if that helps ;-)

I had sri lankan friends growing up who ate chickpeas cooked with currants for breakfast. I eat lentils sometimes. Artichokes is a good idea! but I'd need some protein to get me through the morning. Maybe artichokes and eggs.

we usually have oats for breaky - porridge with yoghurt and honey in winter and muesli in summer with a smoothy to wet it down. We do have eggs and on Sundays pancakes sometimes.
fruitsalad and yoghurt or berries and yoghurt when seasonal on occasion.

I'm a bacon, eggs, juice and coffee girl. In Cambodia it was rice.
Linda Woodrow has just finished a year of breakfast recipes.Lots of good ideas here.

One of the things served to me for breakfast in Ambon was a toasted chocolate sandwich mmmmmm with a thermos full of strong coffee ,, Dutch have chocolate sprinkles , that must be the influence . I have been making my own potatoe pancakes with Tannia tubers with lots of added garlic and chilli , one way to fire up your day . Coffee is a must , and I just roasted some of Mums home grown beans [ until mine start bearing]
Extra nice is leftover Sate sauce on toast , or my Sex on toast [ penutbutter and vagimite ]

I had great breakfasts in Turkey. Menemen: scrambled eggs with chilli and tomatoes, cilbir: eggs poached with yoghurt and chilli, but generally it was bread, olives, tomato, cucumber and feta. And the best fruit I've ever had.

I used to have Menemen for breakfast as a kid my mum would make a version of it, then she stopped. I had it in Turkey and it bought back great childhood memories.
Had yoghurt walnuts and honey in Turkey and Greece for breakfast and still do here sometimes ,I love it.(tasted great with Turkish or Greek thyme honey)it gave it a savoury sweetness.

Nah, ´fraid not, it´s quick, tasty and is about as good as cereals get as far as the amount of crap in it goes though I´m not kidding myself as to them being the healthiest start to my day. If I was well rested and had the time I´d love to knock up a mexican or turkish brekky. Man I loved those Turkish breakfast spreads!

I saw 'huevos rancheros' being made for truckies .. and they looked great .. quick and easy .. tortilla dipped in red mole , then thrown on hot plate , and an egg cracked on top.. 2 ez .. I loved the hot chocolate drinks made in Oaxaca .. Mexican places in LA make very nice Tostada by throwing a large flour tortilla into deep fryer , and pushing it down with small chip basket , this forms a nice bowl shaped container that can be filled with frijoles and whatever else you like ... then eat the lot , only a bit of paper left .this was my favourite breakfast when riding down to Venice Breach for a day freak watching .
