    Sometimes I like milk toast for breakfast - cheap white bread toast, crumbled up into warm milk and butter.

    Other times I like oatmeal with a little milk, fake sugar, and 2 pieces of buttered toast and a large glass of milk

    Or rice krispies with bananas cut up into it (and fake sugar). With milk.

    Or if I'm feeling particularly industrious, I'll make upma, which you can think of as curried cream of wheat. you fry up spices - mustard seed, neem leaf, cumin seed, a little bit of urad and chana dal, in a little oil. Add some onions and potatoes diced really small. when that's about cooked add tomato puree and simmer (make sure the potatoes are done before the next step). Then add water and cream of wheat. I eat it with soy sauce, a really nasty habit I picked up from my ex, it's like putting ketchup on your cottage cheese to Indians. But that's the way I learned to eat it, so that's what seems normal to me.

    I almost never have that much ambition in the morning though.

    Im going to make that apple thingie, with quinoa flour. It sounds like apple cobbler! Yum! Maybe with cherries...
    I dont eat much, when Im riding to work.
    Two bananas and a bottle of apple blackcurrant. but for tea( 11 am) I have fresh veggies cut up( my current fave is radish, garlic, carrot sprouts, green bell peppers,tomato, cucumber and any thing else that strikes my fancy) with four tablspoons of hot okra curry poured over as dressing( the spicier the better as its flavors the veggies more), Oh and some halumi.( Fried cheese, like a grilled cheese without bread. I cant have grain).
    Now that is cold, Im going to need a hot brekkie and that sounds like a good idea.( that apple thingie) Does it microwave well?Ihave to get up at 530 amanyhow to get to work on time, so Im not cooking it!

    Before a 100k+ epic weekend ride in the mountains I would have porridge with dried fruits and tea and a banana. Sometimes I'd just have a couple of slices of toasts with scrambled eggs instead.
    On a work day ,,, just tea and toasts

    You bet! I'm at work right now, but it's on my to do list. They're vegan, but don't contain anything unusual. The leftovers are awesome toasted...okay, now I'm craving them. Maybe Sunday...

    Some of you have amazing breakfasts. The only time I've ever made any egg dish for breakfast would be when we have an overnight guest...if they wanted it. If I make scrambled egg (which really is homemade egg foo young with veggies thrown in) or similar, it's for supper.

    I'm hopelessly lazy and robot-like for breakfast. Sorta the same with minor variations: Usually 1/2 c. of microwaved oatmeal with abit of skim milk. With cup of tea. Sometimes with fresh fruit.

    Or if we happen to have certain ingredients in fridge..melted soy cheese on a small slice of bakery bread.
    Next few breakfasts this wk., I will savour multi-grain saffron and pecan baguette slices. Very interesting bread!

    I have a new favorite breakfast, courtesy of Cafe Nola (one of my favorite Maryland coffee shop/cafes): Eggs Benedict Portabella-- poached eggs, mozzarella cheese, and spinach on a portabella mushroom cap, generously dressed with hollandaise... Oh my
