Easy and Filling Breakfast
 
I love breakfast any time of day.

My perfect meal is as follows:

An omelet with cheese
Asparagus and Sausage
A side of crispy bacon
Home-fries (with onion and peppers mixed in) a couple of fluffy pancakes Sourdough toast
And a hot but not too hot, bloody Mary.

Can anyone top that? :D

Throw the first four things into a tortilla (along with a dash of some spicy pork green chili), and you have a portable breakfast burrito.

I don't know about adding the asparagus, but I agree with the other items. :)

That said, for me, lots and lots of coffee as a beverage.

When I saw the thread title, I thought "duh, breakfast burrito". I am glad I wasn't the only one.

So, yeah, breakfast burrito. Or a bowl of steel cut oats.

You want a filling breakfast eh? Steak and eggs. Especially if you do the steak in the skillet first and then cook your eggs in the grease to make dirty eggs! Serve that with a side of toast and you're set for hours.

YOW! Far TOO filling for me. I'd maybe be able to tackle that after a marathon.

My favorite all-time breakfast is simply two soft boiled eggs with toast/butter. Like Anthony Bourdaine, I'm an egg slut. ;)

Since your breaky has eggs, I'm on board. Just could not finish it.

An everything bagel with vegetable cream cheese topped with slices of red onion and tomato then topped with slices of Irish belly lox and a yoohoo.

I do this open-faced style so you get two pieces topped high with deliciousness.

Not a good breakfast before being close to people without some Scope or Trident.

Point me to a good quality genuine NYC Bagel with Lox and cream cheese and I'm there. Your toppings of of red onion and tomato sound like bliss.
Nice.

Kippers with fried eggs and capers, toast + a Coke for the caffeine intake :D

That's big enough to be the only meal of the day!

Hate to sound like a 16 year old girl, but OMG! YES. Two soft boiled eggs, with toast, butter and a nice cup of coffee.

I'm THERE! :p^

I don't do coffee, but 2 eggs and toast is what I consider a (very) light breakfast. A regular breakfast would be 2-3 eggs of some sort, biscuit & gravy or potatoes or both, and some sort of meat. Since I've been doing the 700-800 calorie breakfast (around 2hrs after waking), small afternoon snack and 300-400 calorie dinner, it's been easy to maintain my weight even with substantial beer consumption.:)

NICE! I have always been a fan of breakfast. I have no doubt that a substantial breakfast, followed by a light lunch and a low-cal dinner would keep the lbs off of you. Seems like you have the ticket.

My problem is, I typically have a 2 egg type breakfast, then run 5 miles and/or bike 25 miles and/or swim a mile followed every other day by 1 hour of medium weight training (55 lbs per arm), that by 2:00 I'm absolutely STARVING.
I guess if I stopped working out so much, I could actually lose weight by not being so hungry. ;)

Wow, the breakfast in the OP sounds intimidating!

I don't bother with breakfast at all when I'm at home. I skip breakfast, have a small lunch, and then a huge evening meal.

When I'm away from home I'll have a slice of toast with some jam (er... I think Americans call it "jelly"?), and maybe a wholegrain roll with a bit of cheese in it, just to make sure I consume something before the end of the work day.

The thought of eating eggs before consuming at least three cups of coffee is nauseating :p

Do Americans eat hash browns much? That's one traditional "breakfast food" that I do enjoy, and that is pretty filling.

There is a special place in my stomach for homefries and tater tots. And I love a good veggie egg-white omelette but sometimes I will accept scrambled eggs, the fluffy kind that I can't seem to make at home. Served with a side of toast with a little butter, and coffee with milk.

1. Bowl of steel cut oats
2. 3 Hard boiled eggs
3. Bowl of strawberries and one banana
4. Glass of non-fat milk
5. Cup of coffee

Bet you've never heard of this quick egg trick before
 
Great new trick for a filling and easy "Egg Scramble", for breakfast or anytime. And no pan to clean. Call this "Egg Souffle" if you want to impress.

Crack 2 eggs into a large coffee mug *
Add 2 TBSP milk
salt and pepper to taste
lightly scramble with fork
put in microwave for 45 seconds
take out and lightly scramble again
Put in for another 45 seconds - take out when just set

DONE!
Now you can eat like it is, or add in any toppings you want: cheese, mushrooms, ham, sausage, onions, salsa. If you add these in before cooking, they slow down the cooking- better to add at end.

* note- it's best in very large coffee mug, or small bowl with high sides.
Put a plate underneath mug in micro, in case of egg overflow.

The more you scramble, the fluffier it gets. You can watch it puff up like a souffle.

Try it - you'll be surprised it came out of the microwave.

I could have breakfast foe every meal of the day.

Best include:

Bisquits and sausage gravy
Or
Toast with peanut butter
Or (in China)
Dan Bing (a kind of crepe with scrambled egg, hot sauce and green onions)

I can barely remember what I used to gulp down in the mornings as a 16 year old lad. ;)

During my years in China, I've become even more convinced than before that egg and tomato belong together. So would add thin slices of tomato on the buttered toast, maybe sprinkled with salt and herbs, to that simple but delicious setup...

kaka May 30, 2012 6:39 am

mine's really easy

run down the street as the bakery's set for the whole grain bread
get a ripened avocado and use it as butter.

fresh squeezed OJ or some fresh citrus fruits (not juice) on the table

goes a long way!
