Oh man, I have too many favorite breakfasts to choose from…

Simple Eggy toast: crack, an egg in a skillet break the yolk and place bread on top flip when cooked. Season with salt, pepper, and Valentina hot sauce

Heart attack: can of corn beef hash, fried in a skillet add pepper, thyme and garlic. Cook until P Parts of it are slightly crispy. Plate and add a fried egg, baked beans, and a piece or two of buttered toast

Homemade egg McMuffin using standard deli ham instead of Canadian bacon

Each of these with a fresh brewed latte sweetened with local honey for allergy benefit

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Favorite, two eggs over easy, hash browns, hunk of blueberry coffee cake and black coffee. (AKA, BDBIT at Hobee's) Second favorite, one plate sized buttermilk pancake with three eggs over easy placed on top of the pancake, no syrup, just egg yolk, black coffee. (Squeeze In, Truckee, CA)

[–] [email protected] 17 points 4 months ago (4 children)

Full English, however as everyone has slight variations or additions:
Sausages, hash brown, fried mushrooms, fried bread, bacon, black pudding, baked beans, fried egg.

... And now I'm hungry again.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Take away the beans and I'm right with you 👌

Are you an eggs or cecina on the side kind of guy?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I'd never heard of cecina before, but looking it up I think I've had things like it, and would definitely opt in, if it were offerred.

I've actually only had it a handful of times, and don't come across it too often where I live, so I'll take it however I can get it.

biscuits and gravy but its not the same if I can't have some scrambled egg with it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Need some runny yolk with that gravy though.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Not for me. don't like yolk to strong flavor, don't like white to weak flavor, love egg when blended.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

Breakfast sandwich. Eggs, ham, steak, and cheese on a poppyseed bun. Honorable mention to the humble breakfast burrito version too

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I don't have breakfast. I drink herb tea or sometimes coffee in the morning. I do make my wife an early lunch around 10:30 after she had her Teams meeting for work.

She likes omelets, I like to show off...

Whisk eggs with any hot sauce you prefer (I make my own fermentations but Sriracha works), herbs you like, salt and white or black pepper, throw the whisked eggs in a pan after heating oil on medium heat, sprinkle cheese and Parmisan for the msg flavor generously and put a tortilla on top of that as soon as possible. Press the tortilla gently so the egg mixture is distributed evenly. When you can turntable the eggs + tortilla around on your pan like a professional DJ, flip it to brown the Tortilla, then turn again for the egg to fluff up.

Anyway 17 Jan 2025, we are 25 years together so my advice, master Omelette du Tortilla.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Very fancy!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Colombian Changua.
It's a milk egg-drop soup with cheese, cilantro and stale bread. Its apparently good for hangovers and handles my migraines like a pro.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yakisoba with shrimp and napa cabbage.

Pho is also a great breakfast food.

When I'm feeling like punishing my digestive system, biscuits and gravy (homemade only--nobody seems to know how to make it properly anymore).

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Fry up some bulk breakfast sausage, make a roux with the grease, add milk? Or do you anything different / have any tips?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You're mostly there.

Fry up the bulk sausage, making sure you chop it up nicely. Don't skimp on the sausage. Make a roux with the grease and a bit of flour and milk. Add flour and milk gradually to your desired consistency (I like it fairly thick), but don't go overboard on the milk or it will become bland and milky. Add fresh cracked black pepper and, importantly, no other seasonings or toppings.

That last part is where every place seems to go wrong these days. Almost everywhere overdoes it by trying to make it something fancy, so they add extra seasonings and things like bacon and green onions and salt. I love bacon and green onions and salt, but they don't go into gravy. And some places forget the pepper. You need pepper. And of course, most places are very skimpy on the actual sausage, even though it's cheap.

Anyway, once done, apply liberally to your preferred biscuits. Quick, easy, delicious.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Ah, right, pepper! I agree the pepper is important. I sometimes add some tobasco too (sorry!)

I've enjoyed banana-peanutbutter smoothies past year. They're just so good, either oat milk or the regular

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

If I have to pick one item, a breakfast taco with chorizo, egg, and cheese.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Fresh-cut honeydew, pineapple and strawberries. I usually have them alongside coffee (latte) with a bowl of yogurt and GF granola.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

A slice of bread with whatever is available to me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

My usual breakfast is cafe con leche.

My favorite breakfast is a big fryup, eggs, good homemade sourdough toast, home fries, and spicy refried beans. There isn't one best food in there, it needs all of them.

Runner-up grits with butter, cheese, and nutritional yeast, topped with a fried egg.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Right now, it is southwestern-style Indian upma with eggs and salsa. My wife invented that after randomly picking up a package of instant upma from a nearby Indian grocery and noting that it reminded her a bit of grits. We are afraid to tell anyone of south Asian background of this no doubt sacrilegious interpretation.

For a savory breakfast, my go-to is tofu scramble. I keep my spices premixed in a mason jar so it's really easy. Oil in a pan, crumble up the tofu, add spices and a can of black beans. If I'm feeling fancy or have veggies I want to use up, I'll fry those up a bit before adding the tofu.

For dessert-breakfast, (vegan) waffles with maple syrup and fresh strawberries is my Saturday morning staple.

If anyone's curious, here's the spice mix I use for my tofu scramble (quantities listed are good for around 6-8 blocks of tofu):

4 Tbsp nutritional yeast
2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp black salt (also called kala namak)
1.5 tsp turmeric (for colour)
1/2 tsp garlic powder

Pancakes or waffles.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 months ago (3 children)

egg soboro right now: crack an egg in a pan, constant stirring, 8 minutes or so at the lowest heat, super fluffy, flavored textured egg curds.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I made this today with fresh eggs from a farm around the corner with fresh garlic and tomatoes from my garden and sprinkled with celery salt and parsley.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

sounds great, except I don't know what celery salt is.

what is that?

oh, literally celery seeds ground up with salt.

I don't think I've ever cooked with it before. I'm going to have to give that a try, that's definitely a good combination.

I won't bother to make it myself, but my mother used to make a very light coffee cake on weekends that I really liked when it was very fresh and hot. Probably have the recipe somewhere. Called "cocoa ripple". Think I've seen it elsewhere.

kagis

This looks kinda similar. I'd leave out the chocolate chips, though.

For something that I'd actually be willing to make and like, large portions of scrambled eggs. Throw in some random spices from the spice cupboard and a little olive oil.
