Rec | I AM THE #1 HATER OF AMERICAN BREAKFAST

🍳

i always had issue eating sweet and heavy things early in the morning bc they made me feel so sick and i basically had to force it down. i’ve said it here before but i love quesadillas in the morning bc they’re fairly quick yet so filling and give you so much energy. i also make baked pita “pizzas” w olive oil, feta, spinach, roasted peppers…honestly whatever i have in the fridge. i really love a good egg and french fry moment when im feeling lazy :) or leftover rice and beans. i always pair anything i eat with a hot tea or some kombucha for easy digestion.

pasta for breakfast

Once I released myself from the shackles of only eating breakfast food at breakfast time my life improved dramatically (I too hate the texture of eggs and can't stand eating anything sweet before noon) I tend to eat leftovers for breakfast. Typical morning is pastawith veggies, soup, a sandwich made from scraps etc.

EGGS AND BANANAS ARE YOUR FRIENDS

when i get into a breakfast routine the angels sing. these are the two things i always gravitate towards: - some sort of an egg scramble. it’s crucial to have one cheese, one green, and one other vegetable. lately i’ve been blistering tomatoes in olive oil, butter, salt and pep, and when those soften i add my scrambled eggs also with salt and pepper. i’ll throw in a handful of spinach, or kale, or even arugula, and let that cook. when it’s almost done i add in some mediterranean herb feta crumbles. always serve with a piece of buttered toast or even crisp up some potatoes on the side. andouille sausage is my favorite protein for this when i have it. - i literally used to have this everyday for a month a couple of years ago and every now and then i come back to it but never as intensely. old fashioned oats and oatmilk on the stovetop. add vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, half of a mashed banana, a handful of chia seeds, some salt, and honey or agave to sweeten. let that cook and assemble your toppings! i usually cut up the other half of the banana and accompany that with any other fruit i might have. i add melted almond or peanut butter, granola, more chia seeds, and i would always add some yogurt, but ik you said dairy free!! mix it all together and you get this slop of oats, seeds, fruit, yogurty goodness and it’s so filling! there are definitely easier breakfasts but these two are always the most filling in my opinion. banana and toast is always a classic.

A list ranking the types of breakfast foods

1. French Toast: there is NOTHING better than some cinnamon French toast with some fresh fruit and whipped cream on top. Add some homemade syrup and you’re living the dream. Stunning. 2. Pancakes: this was a VERY close second. Blueberry or chocolate chip pancakes have my entire heart, especially with some whipped cream. Whenever I think breakfast, I think pancakes. 3. Breakfast Sandwich: this is an interesting choice at number 3, maybe controversial at times, but a breakfast sandwich (a bacon egg and cheese, hellooooo) is one of the best things that I’ve been introduced to, and I’ve met some pretty important people. This is the breakfast you gravitate towards when you have a full day ahead of you. I do believe that these are better on bagels than croissants, and English muffins are a whole other story- get that shit out of here. 4. Waffles: I know you all expected waffles to be much higher, but in my heart of hearts there is no spot more fitting than fourth place. When the waffles are good, they are GOOD, like first place good. When they are bad, okay they are still pretty good, but idk stop pressuring me they are at fourth place and you’re just going to have to deal with that. However if there was a bonus point section they would win for the fact that you can fill the pockets up with syrup! 5. Omelette: little fun fact about me is that I can only cook breakfast food, and an omelette pan to me is a paint brush in the hands of Monet. I love omelettes and I think they are such a great combination of so many yummy ingredients. Honestly though, 99% of omelettes made by other people kinda suck to me, and for that reason they must go at #5 6. Pastry: a fresh pastry in the morning with an iced latte really encapsulates the feeling I get in the summer on vacation. There are so many types of pastries available: croissants, macarons, muffins, cookies, scones, cinnamon rolls, quiches- I could go on all day. Whenever I’m looking for a light breakfast, this is always the move. 7. Smoothie Bowl: I actually love these so much, and anytime I can get my grubby little hands on a smoothie bowl I will do so. The reasons these are placed at #7 are twofold. 1) they always include banana in the base, which overpowers the whole thing, and when you ask if they can make it without banana, 99% of the time they scoff at you and reject your smoothie bowl dreams, to the point where you consider lying and saying you’re allergic to banana just to see what happens. 2) I’m a slow eater, and by the time that I can even think of finishing my bowl, the whole thing has been melted down to resemble a child’s popsicle on a Fourth of July afternoon. When these are done right though my heart is full. 8. Cereal: a true classic. I am one of the few adults who still appreciates a bowl of cereal. Saturday morning after a night out- cereal and cartoons like the good old days, need I say any more? 9. Avocado Toast: I don’t know how it took me so long to mention this considering this is what I eat every single morning, but those millennials realllyyyy knew what they were talking about with this one, absolutely no notes. 10. Eggs and bacon: I totally get why this is a thing, and nobody appreciates a classic diner breakfast more than I do. But sometimes you’re eating eggs and everything is great, and then you think about it for a LITTLE too long and then you look down and go, bro am I eating EGGS? Because of this I need to inhale my eggs before this thought occurs to me, and that feels like enough stress to put this at 10. 11. Iced coffee, empty stomach: if you want to feel anxious, hungover, and ill, this is the breakfast for you. Despite this glowing review I also do this for breakfast most days. 12. Oatmeal or Overnight Oats: I don’t get this one I’m sorry. If I wanted to feel like a baby bird whose mother had just chewed my food for me, I would go for this. Otherwise it’s a hard sell. Honorable mentions that I’m too drained to write about: granola bar, yogurt, porridge
