After my trip to the Santa Monica Farmers Market yesterday, I am convinced that the best breakfast is freshly picked Gaviota strawberries, Arctic white nectarines, a few blackberries, a couple of dollops of good Greek Yogurt (I like Fage 2%) and a sprinkle of a good locally-made granola. As much as I love that breakfast, I am starving about 3 hours after.
Sounds like this is where its at.^

3 hours after eating that sounds right.. at least from a 5 meals a day perspective..

If its all in the mind.. and a pill is created to tell the mind you aren't hungry..
Then.. successful weight loss program!
Regarding 5 meals a day.. to all FTers who try this.. the key is to cut down on the portions..

Most of the time I'd rather eat leftover dinner food than breakfast food, but of the breakfast food options...
#1 eggs benny - best I ever had was at Snooze in Denver. Followed closely by the Park Hyatt Vendome
#2 French Toast - best I ever had was the Cinnamon Challah French toast at the Breakfast Club in Scottsdale
#3 Full Irish - definitely with mushrooms, and minus the black pudding.
#4 Corned beef hash and eggs.

and their eggs benny ranks right up there next to Snooze.

Just had a childhood favorite: finely chopped onions and ham, sauteed in butter with scrambled eggs (basically, scambled eggs). But instead of toast with super-sweet jam, I had a salad, because I'm not a child anymore and not allowed to eat carbs.

If I'm at home, I tend to like simpler things: a bowl of cereal or peanut butter on toast. If I feel like eggs, my childhood favorite was always what my dad calls Egyptian Eyeballs (aka eggs in a hole). You cut a hole in the middle of a slice of bread, fry it in butter or olive oil, and crack an egg into the hole. The yolk must be runny still!
If I'm out and about and need something quick, I like the Starbucks turkey bacon breakfast sandwich.

In the midst of all these fancy or spartan breakfast suggestions, part of my vote goes to an old favorite, "Foreskins on Toast", chipped/dried beef in cream sauce over crisp toast (the one reward after standing the 4-8 watch).
