I drink coffee mixed with protein shake.

Then I eat more of a traditional breakfast around lunch time. I saute a bunch of veggies and a but of sausage (just enough to grease the pan) and then add some eggs, put it in a tortilla for breakfast burritos.

Anxiety and despair

[-] 0ops@piefed.zip 1 points 2 months ago

Normal day:

  • Breakfast cereal (my favorite is corn flakes with sliced banana)
  • Oatmeal
  • Eggs and toast (scrambled or over medium)
  • Leftovers (may or may not bother to reheat)

When I'm feeling fancy:

  • Breakfast burrito
  • Biscuits and gravy
  • Loaded hash browns
  • French toast

Sometimes I'll also just be in a weird mood and make dinner for breakfast, just as I often make breakfast for dinner or lunch.

Not sure if people just don't eat cereal anymore, or they just don't care to admit it. Love me some corn chex in particular. I'll do toast and scrambled eggs and bacon if I'm feeling like taking the time though, sure.

I don't eat cereal - too many calories and too much sugar, plus I'll just be hungry again in 45 minutes. I need protein and fat in my breakfast.

[-] tamal3@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Peanut butter toast and a cup of coffee, usually. Y'all international types really do need to try crunchy peanut butter. Don't give me no skippy bullshit. It's amazing stuff.

[-] droning_in_my_ears@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

We use peanut butter in some traditional dishes where I'm from. I'm actually surprised I couldn't find any peanut butter with no sugar added here in Europe.

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.

Last night's leftovers or oatmeal and fruit, usually. Maybe some toast or eggs depending on the mood. I'll occasionally go to the ma and pa diner down the street for some waffles or pancakes, but that's more of a treat than a real breakfast.

Edit: also coffee or tea. A strong irish breakfast with cream and honey is my favorite

I like toast, eggs, and coffee for a work day and whatever Im feeling for a free day (which tends to be toast, eggs, sausage, and coffee lol I usually do wheat toast and i get ground sausage tubes because they're easy to freeze and such)

[-] Pumafred9@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Nine cans of ravioli.

[-] MourningDove@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 months ago

Coffee. And then coffee.

[-] klemptor@startrek.website 1 points 2 months ago

My usual breakfast is:

  • 3 slices lean breakfast ham
  • 2 eggs over-easy
  • 1/2 avocado, mashed, with lemon juice, salt, pepper, and Japanese 7 Spice
  • 300g strawberries
  • Yorkshire gold tea
  • Water

I toss that ham in the frying pan, brown it and put it on the plate, top it with the avocado mash, and then top that with the eggs. Strawbs go on the side.

It's 478 calories and has a decent amount of protein (28g) to start my day, plus 10g fiber, and it gives me good energy for my workout. Plus I never get tired of it!

I don't generally eat breakfast. I honestly don't know how people do it, when I wake up the last thing I want to do is eat.

Farina with hot water. And coffee

[-] MurrayL@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago
[-] Zugyuk@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

🤣 two in one, one in another...

But seriously, i bought all my instant coffee for the next four years before the tariffs kicked in.

[-] dil@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 months ago

Heinz Beans, Eggs some scrambled (veggies added( and one or two over easy, 2-4 bacon and/or 2-4sausage, toast, if I'm not lazy

If I'm lazy, bacon and or sausage if I remember throw it in the airfyer, omelet (veggies addedg and toast, probably in sandwich form with cheese

And my "breakfast" at 2am is usually what I thinj is called eggy bread? I just dip bread in whisked seasoned eggs and panfry that, pretty peak honestly I could eat that forever.

low calorie keto bread so I feel less bad about toast consumption, and cup of chai. I use ketchup always. Im so hungry but I know I should sleep and have breakfast for breakfast instead of making it rnow

[-] dil@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 months ago

I have no idea how that happened lol

[-] grasshopper_mouse@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Workout days (3 a week) I eat an egg/feta cheese/spinach scramble with 1 chicken breakfast sausage and about 1/4 cup of sweet potatoes. I meal prep these and keep them in the freezer.

Any non-workout day it's non-fat Greek yogurt with half an apple, 1/4 cup protein granola, and 2 TBSP of PB Fit powder.

The amount of Americans in the comments who don't eat breakfast is shocking

[-] Soulcreator@programming.dev 1 points 2 months ago

As an American who doesn't eat breakfast, I'm curious why that is shocking to you?

[-] XiELEd@piefed.social 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I see breakfast as part of the time when you're getting ready for the day. I am not sure what else to respond to why it's shocking to me, it just is. I am also more likely to skip lunch than breakfast.

People say breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
