Nothing, usually. Sometimes yogurt with granola and/or fruit. When I was younger I ate cereal a lot. If I'm eating out, I'll get bigger stuff like waffles, biscuits and gravy, eggs benedict, or a classic plate of stuff (usually eggs, meat, and potatoes).
Coffee, banana, oatmeal, sometimes omelette and bacon.
My most frequent breakfasts are just coffee, or 2 eggs over medium, some kind of meat (spam, bacon, sausage, or steak in that order of prevalence), and some kind of bread (toast, English muffin, biscuit) with coffee. Those options account for perhaps 85% of my breakfasts.
Sometimes (1-3 times per month?) I have cereal and milk. Very rarely, I'll have fruit and salami.
During the summer, I sometimes substitute iced tea for coffee. During winter, I sometimes have leftovers from dinner the night before. Any time of year, if there's leftover pizza, I'll have that for breakfast, cold, with salt and red pepper flakes added.
About twice a year I pull out my waffle maker, and make waffles on a weekend. Every time I tell myself I should do it more often, but every time it seems to sate my craving for ~6 months.
Glass of water and a cup of coffee. I don't usually eat food until 1 or 2 in the afternoon.
oatmeal or yogurt with coffee
If I'm working, I don't have the energy to do more than a toasted bagel with cream cheese. On the weekend, especially if I manage to sleep in, I might do something like an omelette or egg sandwich of some kind. If I have the time, I might go big and break out a can of corned beef hash, cook that up and poach an egg in the middle of it, then have that with some toast.
If it was easier to get and keep fruit without it spoiling before I can eat it, I'd probably throw in a mandarin orange or something as an easy to eat side to my usual bagel, but American supermarkets make it hard to buy small batches of food more frequently rather than making a trip twice a month to stock up on groceries.
back in my day it was waffels eggs and coffee but now adays with inflation its a monster
eggs sausig bacon horsemeat potato and coffee
Every day?
every day.
I’ll make a latte and snack on some nuts sometimes. Wife has avocado toast or two eggs
Yogurt and granola. Maybe a banana. 2 cups of coffee.
Typically: Bowl of cereal, milk and glass of OJ. Cereals I rotate through: Honey nut Cheerios, Cinnamon Chex, Mini Wheats
Once a week: I make malted waffles for the family. Usually on Sundays.
Once in a great while: donuts. I love donuts but at my age I need to restrict how many and how often I eat them.
I dont eat breakfast. If I do though, usually cereal like wheaties or frosted mini wheat.
Three times a week Ill make overnight Oats. the rest, Yogurt
I baked some pumpkin muffins with oats this past weekend. I usually eat that with a homemade latte. :)
For me it varies a lot. First off im not wild about eating until severl hours after I have gotten up. So like when working a job when I commute I want to eat just about when I get to work and I used to pick up stuff a lot. Lately my wife has been scrambled eggs with breakfast sausage or chorizo lately and it can be sorta plain or we pick up guace, salsa, avacado, sour cream. but also just eat it with toast or tortillas or whatever. I can say my perfect breakfast would be biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs, corned beef hash, and french toast. It should be noted that most places do not make fresh corned beef hash and use canned. That is god awful and a non starter. Im often afraid to order it as its one of those things that can be horrible but when made well its awesome. This applies to biscuits and gravy to a lesser degree but more places make it from scratch and the canned while not great is not awful. Its kinda hard to make bad french toast and even harder with scrambled eggs but places find ways.
Pepperidge farm cookies and almond milk or hot cocoa when it's cold.
I do a peanut butter vanilla oatmeal fiber meal smoothie in lieu of breakfast. It's tasty and filling and slows my digestion down for the rest of the day. It's a custom recipe mostly.
Bacon, eggs, and biscuits.
My standard is a mix of plain Greek yogurt and plain "American?" yogurt with hemp, chia, and flax seeds, cinnamon toast crunch, and wheat checks all mixed together. A lot of times I will also do a banana, spinach, ginger, and tumeric protein smoothie.
Eggs usually. Big egg bake (9x13 pan of like scrambled eggs and whatever casserole) on a Sunday lasts me all week.
single egg burrito with fried cabbage and onions + coffee
idk, its kind of variable because i truly just do not give a fuck at this point, but my breakfast may be one of the following:
nothing, just not hungry that morning
some kind of soup + toast
small 2-3 egg scramble w/potato, bell peppers, bit of cheese, bit of some kind of meat
ramen w/chicken and veggies
... throw on a small apple or handful of grapes, maybe a small salad (no dressing) or handful of baby carrots, maybe a small muffin onto any of those if i am more hungry than usual and/or trying to make that meal hit more food groups and be a bit more well rounded.
A smoothie and/or bagel with cream cheese.
On weekends, I usually skip it because I'm asleep. If I do make something, it's for a date, so pancakes/French toast, eggs, and some fruit.
