What did you have for breakfast thread?

Late, lazy breakfast of leftover meatloaf refried in hot oil served with the remainder of last night's homemade coleslaw. Several gazillion mugs of tea.

Crumpets

I'm still in bed so I'm probably going to hold out and have roast chicken for breakfast/lunch/dinner. Staying at the folks' house and Daddy likes to cook early.

I had cream crackers and a packet of tayto salt and vinegar crisps this morning for breakfast. Shameful I know, but very enjoyable

Pancakes and nutela

Porridge, good way of filling you up, trying to cut back on bread, if I have coffee for elevenses I can never just have 1 slice of toast have to have about 3 slices so sticking with the porridge.

I got it from Nom Nom Paleo's Pumpkin and Carrot muffins.
I swapped for butternut squash, which I roasted for 45 min in the oven and then pureed. A quarter of a whole squash would give you plenty than what's required.
I also used ground cinnamon and bit of nutmeg, instead of five- spice because I've made them with five- spice before and they were 'interesting' but won't repeat that again.

I've always wanted to try it too. Doubt I'll ever bother to make it myself, but will order it out sometime.

I always find naturally smoked haddock way too salty. Orange-dyed stuff for me all the way!

Hotch potch breakfast spread over several hours with many cups of tea - pain au raisin , very large slice of (mams) strawberry Victoria sandwich - toast and all topped off with a fried egg sandwich and potato cakes -

Yesterday was savoury hottokeki with fried eggs and Toulouse sausage. Went down very well.

MissFlitworth

Killowen lemon curd yogurt (nicest yogurt ever. Also, yogurt or yoghurt? and isn't it an odd word) with oats, banana and dried cherries.

Tilly

That looks delish, Miss F.

Jesus, you people love your breakfast but I have to give you top prize. Had to google hottokeki.

I was looking forward to my superquinn sausages, back bacon, eggs and freshly baked ciabatta but feel a bit inadequate now. Lie in today. Must get up.

And, is it yo-ghurt OR yaw-ghurt? Somehow the latter bothers me. Sounds like a disease.

Tilly

It's yo, always yo

Oh god me too, can't be doing with yaw-ghurt, it sounds v. nasal. My vote is for yo-ghurt

Ah, I'm just trying to keep up with the kedgeree/fritter/eggs benedict crowd by making 'pancakes' sound fancy

Aldi have a very, very similar yoghurt in the same little pots - I imagine Killowen supplies them but not sure. They are hands down the best yoghurts ever. The raspberry one is my fave.

MissFlitworth

I think they're Killowen too This one is came in a big plastic bucket and the curd is incorporated into the yoghurt rather than a layer underneath, so it's a little sweeter than they normally are. SO much awesome. Really do love their yoghurts, they've ruined most others on me (cos they just taste way, way too sweet)

I've had problems with this brand of yogurt. Every single time I've bought it, across different shops, it's been gone off! Like, actually lumpy and sour.

MissFlitworth

Sour I'd expect, it's a particularly sour/tart yoghurt. (I'd probably go as far as saying it's an unusually sour yoghurt!) Much more so than other yoghurts I've had, which is partially why it's one of the only ones I eat these days, I find most other yoghurts way too sweet, even ones I wouldn't have pegged in my head as 'sweet' yoghurts, like Glenisk ones. Don't like the sound of lumpy yoghurt mind you.

Tarzana2

I'll give it another go, think I may have just been unlucky. And sometimes shops can be lax on correct storage of perishables!

I'm sure when I had it , it was lumpyish too . But proper yogurt would be - most yogurts have extra non fat milk powder and or modified starch ect - the only smooth thick natural natural yogurt that I know of is something like onken bio pot ( it's made in the pot you buy it in so they don't have to disturb the set to pack it ) ( useless info )

Nothing

That horrible moment when you've just parked the car at work and realise that your breakfast is still sitting at home in the press.

Oh I do love food facts, that's really interesting! Although I'm getting a big obsessively fascinated with the yogurt industry (How does one dairy product make enough money to have, what feels like, 99% of all tv advertising etc. etc. Possibly turning into a Big Yogurt Conspiracist over here).

Agh, agggggggh, hate that. Have done that to myself way too often, so depressing!
