Slache Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 We haven't figured out the cause of this, but the scent of eggs cooking has made me sick for about 5 and a half years. So I've had a Jimmy Dean DeLights sandwich (because they don't smell) 5 days a week for the past 5 and a half years. I'm kinda over them. What are your suggestions? My ideal breakfast would be warm, have no eggs, little to no dairy, and little to no gluten. Eta: I hate oatmeal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethel Mertz Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Oatmeal. I slice up a banana and put it in with the oatmeal for cooking (either a pan or a bowl in a microwave if I'm using instant packs of oatmeal). I also might add a handful of dried cranberries or raisins. Once the oatmeal is cooked, I add a big heaping spoonful of peanut butter, a big spoonful of yogurt (you can skip the yogurt if you don't want dairy). and then add milk (substitute rice, soy, or almond milk) to desired consistency. In warm weather, I have cold cereal with fruit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted March 16, 2015 Author Share Posted March 16, 2015 I should clarify that I have some undiagnosed intestinal problem. I throw everything up. It's insane. I used to love oatmeal, but I ate it with the wrong thing, lost it, and now the texture bothers me. I'm really high maintenance now when it comes to food. I'm not a high maintenance person. It sucks.

Dh has more food intolerances than you can shake a stick at. He often eats a large salad that includes lettuce, fruit, nuts, turkey, freshly made dressing. It isn't warm, but it's what works for him. If he wants something simple, he has celery with sunflower butter. If he wants something warm, he has homemade chicken vegetable soup. If you have problems with food, eat what works and don't worry about whether it's breakfast food. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My ideal breakfast would be warm, have no eggs, little to no dairy, and little to no gluten. Eta: I hate oatmeal. I hate the mushy kind of oatmeal, too. Not the overnight kind with yogurt, either, ick. But I love baked oatmeal. It has applesauce and milk in it, but you could easily replace with whatever milk you want. 2 cups oats 2 heaping TBSP oat flour (just oats ground up in the blender) 1/2 cup light brown sugar, loose, not packed 1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp cinnamon (this isn't overpowering, but you can leave it out) 1 1/2 cups milk of your choice 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce 2 TBSP melted butter 1 egg, beaten *optional 1/3 cup of raisins or dried cherries or whatever you want to add Combine dry, add in wet ingredients. Pour into sprayed 8x8 pan and bake at 375 for 20-25 min. **The texture of this is drier and makes loose, cake-ish squares which is why I don't gag on it.

Amira Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I usually have fruit, but if there are tasty leftovers in the fridge, I'm happy to eat those. Chilaquiles are one of my favorite breakfasts if I'm cooking something. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFSinIL Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Adult son with autism: toast and juice mixed with plain protein powder. Hubby: yogurt mixed with granola and berries or banana DD, 18: toast or Special K (chocolate) Me: steel-cut oatmeal mixed with a lot of roasted sunflower seeds and lightly salted. It turns out like salty, nutty gravel, not the mushy stuff. I hate most breakfast food. I make a batch of oatmeal every five days and chill it in small containers. no one messes with mom's oatmeal! I have a cup of 1% milk while the oatmeal heats in the microwave, and then a plain cuppa tea with it. When I visit my Dad in California he insists on I-HOP in the mornings, and then I get a waffle or their multi-grain pancakes. I looked at that breakfast around the world site: I'd LOVE to wake up and eat in Turkey, Thailand or Mexico! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justasque Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Amy's Gluten-Free Tofu Scramble Burrito. Very gentle on the tummy. Wrap in a cloth napkin and microwave 1 minute, then flip over, pull the napkin up a bit so it doesn't stick to the tortilla, and microwave one more minute. Easy-peasy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will show how uneducated I am about food.... I don't know what about half this stuff is, let alone how to prepare it, or what it might taste like. I am truly baffled. I am a toast with just butter, oatmeal, or smoothie for breakfast type. I should seriously consider expanding my menu. Of course, in light of the OP who has eaten the same thing every day for years, I guess I am already diverse. Hehe. Guess I'll stay tuned in for more ideas though. The Hive is always full of great info. :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justasque Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Amy's also does a tofu scramble with hash browns and tomato slices, and a Mexican tofu scramble with refried beans and a corn tortilla.

Ausmumof3 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 This is not what we had breakfast but I have seen it suggested here before. Would you enjoy Dahl?

RKWAcademy Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I generally don't eat warm breakfasts, unless it involves eggs. How about: Kind bar - nuts, low sugar Nuts and fruit GF pancakes (? for warm food) Smoothies - protein powder, greek yogurt, fruit - could use almond milk and fruit to make dairy free. Greek yogurt with strawberries muffins baked eggs - would those smell to you? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris in VA Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 How about buttered coffee? It's not breakfast, but it might give you an hour or two to wake up, and then you could have a snack that isn't breakfast-y, if eating non-breakfast food early is a problem for you. I like rice pudding for breakfast--but if you don't want the dairy, you could make it with almond milk. It's wonderfully warm and sweet. I like potatoes with bacon, too, or some grilled apple and chicken sausage with peppers and onions. You could add it to potatoes, or add potatoes to it. Mashed potatoes are good, too--warm and comforting. But I need a bit of protein or I spike. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pehp Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I actually love millet. I soak it overnight, cook it in the crockpot all day (often in stock--veggie stock, chicken stock, whatever), then store it in quart jars in the fridge. At breakfast I can put some in a saucepan, add almond milk (you can use regular of course!), and heat it through. I like it with a generous dollop of almond butter and a sprinkle of some kind of fruit (raisins, berries). My close friend who is an acupuncturist introduced this breakfast to me. It's not as goupy as oatmeal, which really works for me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucyStoner Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Dinner leftovers. Seriously, I will often just chow down on leftover chicken and veggies or something like that. Or leftover aloo gobi or similar. Veggie and potato hash with greens and grits (with or without a little meat). We had that this morning. Yummy. Potato pancakes.

LisaKinVA Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 If it's breakfast, and there are leftovers they are most likely to get eaten. Unless I specifically tell someone not to eat something, it can get eaten. So...burritos, lasagna, ribs, eggs, it all works. Given I have half the fridge space I used to, I'm a lot less picky. Besides, we can eat eggs at lunch or dinner, if we need to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zinnia Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I usually have a bowl of grits. I like them better than oatmeal.

flyingiguana Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 My daughter eats Ramen or dinner leftovers. A decent canned soup might be good. I was going to suggest oatmeal. I kind of hate it too, but I eat it every morning. I just forced myself to get over my revulsion because it's filling and quick. Most importantly, it doesn't make me sick like a lot of other foods do. And while I can handle being sick from dinner, not so much from breakfast. Hint on dealing with oatmeal -- don't put anything in it. No milk, no sugar, nothing. I find it a lot easier to handle straight. There's less of it that way. And if I let it sit for 15 minutes after cooking it's more solid and easier to eat quickly. I also eat yogurt and a banana. Every morning. I like a breakfast with no decisions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soror Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 current breakfast- bacon and apple with coconut cream favorites- bacon, broccoli and apple sausage and sauteed brussel sprouts leftovers- although I find that something light for breakfast is usually better for me and I save leftovers for lunch. In the past I did yogurt a lot but I'm off of dairy now and non-dairy yogurt is too expensive, nasty or not available here. Smoothies and juice of the green variety were staples for long periods. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
