Cold leftover pizza.

Breakfast Tacos!!

Flour tortilla stuffed with scrambled eggs, bacon strips and/or ground breakfast sausage, cheddar cheese, refried beans (optional), and a line of habanero hot sauce.

Fucking 😙🤌!!!

It's also one of the best hangover cures!

2

Cut a croissant in half. On the bottom half, spread out a healthy serving of a good chicken salad. Sprinkle a tiny bit of red pepper powder for a kick (optional but recommended). Put two slices of cheese on top of this. Put this in a toaster oven, preferably heat from above. Take it out when the cheese is melted. Replace the top croissant half and press down a bit so everything doesn't fall out when you take a bite. Enjoy the best start to your day.

Oh wow this does sound good

1

anything that can be eaten and reached from bed.

2

Toasted bagel with cream-cheese and a sunny-side-up egg on top. Two eggs for the two halves of the bagel. Eat with hands knowing that some of the yolk will get on your fingers. It's awesome. I made it for my partner once and she now makes it for herself when she's eating alone.

Coffee

Leftover dinner. Not a huge breakfast fan.

1

Omelettes. So versatile. So good. Of all the combos I love bacon and mushrooms in my american cheese omelettes best of all.

Pancakes are a close second.

2

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.

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

2
- I would, but the band hasn't figured out that I don't really know how to play the tuba yet.

Pussy.

You wouldn’t happen to be from Ohio?

12

Square sausage and potato scones.

2

Sugar and caffeine.

1

A nice breakfast bowl w/ sausage, egg, cheese, and shredded fried potatoes all mixed together. Throw in a glass of OJ and a mug of coffee and I am set.

It's actually been a while since I made it, since the extra effort of getting the potatoes right loses out to the morning ennui, so I end up substituting the eggs and potatoes for just grits.

2

My work cafeteria serves a similar breakfast bowl on Tuesdays. I think I know what I'm having for breakfast tomorrow

2

That I don't have to make myself? Greek omelette. That I do have to make myself? Breakfast burritos that past me made a bunch of them froze for future me. Or just general food, we don't often have just breakfast food.

3

The one I eat most often is overnight oats, just steel cut oats and whole milk with some fruit if I have it. Favorite to eat is probably bananas foster french toast made with home made brioche. Nothing like starting your day with a brown sugar, caramel and rum sauce haha.

2

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.

14

Oh is that the term for it? I've been calling it "super smooth scrambled eggs" which doesn't adequately describe the texture. Egg curds is pretty close but it's almost like a creamed egg. So soft and fluffy, I like to add cream cheese into it while it's cooking and serve it on toast with melty cheese and a bit of tomato salsa. Yum!

1
- yup, egg soboro.
  
  woo that toast you make sounds goood

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.

4
- 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.
  
  5

Usually made for dinner these days but a breakfast burrito comprised of either scrambled or fried eggs, cheese, diced potatoes, with bacon or chorizo, smothered in cheese and a NM green chile sauce.

1

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).

10

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

6
- 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.

For a long time it was Huevos Rancheros, but that got nudged into the #2 spot when I discovered Eggs Benedict.

2

Steel cut oatmeal with maple syrup and almonds and shredded coconut.

9

Chilaquiles

7

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

2
- 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.
  
  2

Eggs Benedict with a perfect lemony Hollandaise

3

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

6

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

8

I like having congee or pho for breakfast

Sometimes I have fried rice with chinese sausage and eggs

Pan-fried Salmon, Miso Soup, and Rice is good too

4

Spam or sardines are great with egg and fried rice too.

3

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

7

Do you press the tofu beforehand, or just out of the package and into the frying pan?

2
- I've tried both ways and didn't really note any differences. If anything, unpressed might've had a slightly better texture.
  
  I find for crumbled or smaller pieces of tofu, pressing doesn't do much. It's really more for when you have bigger chunks and want to marinate it, in my experience.
  
  2

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

6

Oatmeal flavored with a mix of sweet chili sauce and soy sauce or cheerios.

3

Noodles, specifically Bee Hoon (rice vermicelli). Mild and feels like is absorbs all the sins of the night before.

2

gotta go with pancakes

2

Bacon

3

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

3

Need some runny yolk with that gravy though.

2
- Not for me. don't like yolk to strong flavor, don't like white to weak flavor, love egg when blended.

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.

Very fancy!

3

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.

3

Pancakes or waffles.

3

A 24oz can of NOS.

2

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)

2

I usually eat a simple Porridge, but if I want to make something fancy on a weekend I make pancakes for my family.

1

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

2

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

2

A slice of bread with whatever is available to me.

2

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.

3

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.

https://mindeescookingobsession.com/chocolate-chip-ripple-coffee-cake/

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.

2

Cereal and toast, but I also don't typically eat breakfast.

1

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.
