What's for breakfast at your house?

[justme824]

When you get eye rolls when announcing oatmeal again for breakfast you know you need some new ideas :) So I am hoping you can offer up some good ideas to reboot breakfast around here!

[Mrs Mungo]

Ummm...we had scrambled eggs and toast. So, not all that exciting today.

 

Here are some breakfast ideas that I've posted in the past (we tend to do a lot of protein at breakfast:

Breakfast burritos

baked oatmeal or steel-cut oats

omelets

crepes (they are mostly egg)

boiled eggs and fruit

migas

huevos rancheros

yogurt parfaits with homemade granola, greek yogurt (it's higher in protein and lower in sugar than regular) and fruit

waffles with peanut or almond butter

biscuits, sausage, scrambled eggs

breakfast pizza

various egg-based casseroles

french toast with bacon

Breakfast frittatas

Quiche

Quaker Banana Nut Bread soft baked bars. I get 24 of these at Costco for 9.99...on those morning when I don't want to cook.

Leftovers are being eaten here. We usually don't eat typical breakfast foods in the morning.

Breakfast is a PITA around here because no one likes much of the same things. Today the kids are having toast, apple slices and banana shakes.

[DusksAngel]

We had pizzas. On other mornings we'll have eggs or oatmeal (depending on the kid). Usually though, we have leftovers or lunch style things... We don't eat "normal" breakfast things

[indigomama]

We pretty much have the same thing everyday. Boring but easy. Oatmeal, eggs (boiled or scrambled), a fruit, and sausage or bacon.

Saturdays are pancake days.

oh wait the children??..... they have the usual, 1 egg and 1/2 bowl of cereal.

[Hoot]

I have to be out of the house for work at 6am and DS13 usually goes with me so he grabs something quick like frozen waffles, pancakes, toast, cereal or bagels.

[nmoira]

Almost always porridge, a small sausage patty (not the salty frozen kind... yuck), fruit, milk.

[Mom-ninja.]

Yesterday we had hot cereal (mix of millet and buckwheat) and this morning we had english muffins with almond butter along with sliced bananas and apples.

[Soror]

this am:

scrambled eggs w/ bacon

parfaits w/ grain free granola, coconut yogurt and blueberries (frozen)

OJ for the kids

[LaxMom]

yogurt and granola, (gf) pancakes/waffles/muffins, steel cut oatmeal, eggs (scrambled, over easy, in a sandwich...), dutch baby, leftovers, toast, bagels... It varies.

Can you all come feed my kids in the morning?? They usually just have cereal. I want to be creative and motherly like you all!

[Tita Gidge]

Breakfast is "fend for yourself" - which means anything from last night's leftovers to a simple bowl of cereal.

 

I have one who will make everyone omelets a few times each week, and I have another who bakes batches of muffins each week that the others pick through in the mornings.

 

I'm never hungry until lunch time, so I just have coffee in the mornings. That's how the kids learned (early) to fend for themselves :)

[Joshin]

We also do fend for yourself in the morning. DS12 sometimes makes eggs in various ways, or they have oatmeal, or leftovers. Sometimes the boys make a batch of pancakes or muffins on the weekend and freeze them for the week. They make smoothies in summer. They always have fresh fruit or home canned fruit with breakfast. DH doesn't eat breakfast and I wake up three to four hours before everyone else, so I make myself a quickie veggie fritatta most mornings.

[Tess in the Burbs]

My kids feed themselves, but the following are available:

 

cereal(3-4 different kinds)

bagels/cream cheese

toast( with jelly or apple butter or cinn/sugar mix)

eggs(can also make grits)

oatmeal

 

So they can pick and chose their own thing, make it, eat it, clean up. I do offer pancakes or waffles on the weekends. Since we have food allergies we use a certain mix for that and it's only a family thing....b/c we can literally eat one box of mix and have no leftovers. :-)
