    It certainly didn't do my waistline any favours, but Sunday morning I had a big durty chip butty lashed with salt & vinegar from Saturday night's leftovers from the chipper. And a mug of tae.

    Black Coffee.

    Big cup of coffee.
    Made crepes with 20% brown flour (out of curiosity), served with butter, maple syrup (Aldi, it's excellent for the price) and crispy smoked rashers.

    I don't think I'll cut the crepes with brown flour again. (Though I'll be eating the leftover batter tomorrow and possibly wed...).
    My preferred way to augment the crepe batter is a 1/3 buckwheat 2/3 white flour, but the buckwheat doesn't really keep.

    Mango, Skyr natural yoghurt & granola.

    Yesterday, I had the ultimate in Southern heart attack breakfasts: A [savoury] biscuit, topped with a fried chicken breast, two lightly fried eggs, sausage gravy and potato rosti :D

    I could only eat half of eat, but my god, it's one of the best breakfasts I've ever had.

    I've always wondered is a biscuit in American terms like a cracker or more like scone / bread roll?

    I made the worlds most perfect soft boiled eggs this morning . White set perfectly and the yoke lovely and runny. Shame I wanted hard boiled eggs :mad: Would have just had them anyway but I had let them cool so cold runny egg yolk wasn't appealing unfortunately. I swear if I wanted soft boiled eggs any other day of the week I wouldn't be able to get them as good as today, typical!

    It's like a savoury, buttery scone. They're amazing. It's definitely on my "to learn" list!

    We have been working on digestive issues our 18month old has and he has been on medication since 6 months old. I chatted to a friend who is a nutritional therapist and she suggested a few additions to his diet. Within two days he was off his medication (under doctor supervision) and we've not looked back 2 months later! So breakfast is the same most mornings :)

    Overnight soaked oats in either water or almond milk, 1 table spoon of kefir in each bowl, dab of honey to sweeten and a sprinkle of chia seeds. Followed by kiwi.

    Baby is feeling much better and I can feel the benefits myself. Delighted!

    Is kefir something that has a short date on it or is it something that keeps for s long time? I'm interested in this breakfast for myself and my son

    Edit to add my own brekkie: same as every other week day - boiled egg on 2 slices of homemade soda and a gallon of tea promptly followed by a mug of coffee :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,772 ✭✭✭✭Whispered


    I buy mine in the local farmers market and it has a date of about 3 weeks. It's available in tesco for €1 in the chilled polish section. I don't know what the quality is like as I've never tried it. Or you can produce your own if you get the grains. I don't know how long that lasts for though. Find it easier to buy it.

    Tóst agus chickpea cream cheese. I'm after getting very fond of the ould Lidl chickpea cream cheese and will be upset when it no long exists.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,561 ✭✭✭✭dastardly00


    Oaty Egg Muffins (I used almond milk instead of cow's milk)

    Kefir turns up in Lidl's Polish Week special offers. Never felt the need to try it myself :)

    Breakfast Spanish style - churrios dipped in a hot chocolate sauce.

    I made a batch of granola yesterday with oats, pecans, pumpkin seeds, vanilla, oil, honey and dark chocolate. I ate some this morning with greek yogurt and blueberries. It was a happy Sunday morning indeed.

    Cup of coffee with cream and some of yesterday's leftover homemade sushi.

    A sad icey crumpet from the freezer (after toasting it twice it still was a bit soggy underneath) with jam and butter and some nice coffee


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,057 ✭✭✭MissFlitworth


    Homemade granola (had been planning to do this for ages & homadecider's post above kicked me into action!) with oats/buckwheat/walnuts/third of a sad, chewy 'luxury nut' box that had had the bag left open/cranberries/shake of milled linseed that I don't know why I bought/peanut butter chips/cocoa/maple syrup with Skyr natural yoghurt and some mango. Enough granola for breakfast for a couple of months now :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,561 ✭✭✭✭dastardly00


    On the subject of homemade granola, I've been making my own muesli for the last month or so. I wanted something that didn't have wheat flakes, or too much sugar (including natural sugar), or any preservatives.

    I came up with a mixture of 50% oats, 10% almonds, 10% hazelnuts, 10% raisins, 5% walnuts, 5% sunflower seeds, 5% pumpkin seeds, 5% sesame seeds, and a good dash of cinnamon. I normally have it with almond milk.

    Poached eggs, smoked salmon and a side helping of melon. On a bit of a health kick, missing the bread though.
