Did YOU eat a healthy breakfast this morning?

[dmccarty]

I used to love
3 eggs with salsa beaten-in then scrambled. Eliminates need yo worry about sticking/dryness. When near done:

When I eat breakfast at work I have a ham and cheese omelet. I did not stay in a Holiday Inn last night but back in January I think I got Whooping Cough which has whooped my fanny! :shocked: WORSE cough I have ever had and there ain't much to be done about it but let it heal. The doc and nurse told me that it would take a long time to go away but they did not test to see if I had Whooping Cough. They did not say either but we had an outbreak in my area last summer, one of my kids brought home the bad cough and then I got it as well.

What the heck does this have to do with breakfast and eggs? :laughing::laughing::laughing: I am getting there....

This cough really makes your throat sensitive. While I am much better now the throat is still sensitive. I have to be careful to not laugh or I will start coughing again. I pile salsa on my omelet at work. It usually is not spicy just just hot enough. When the cough was bad I had my usual breakfast and a bit of pepper seed stuck in my throat, which caused me to have a coughing fit. Did people at work check to see if I was about to die? NOPE! Just told me to quiet down. :confused3::shocked::laughing::laughing::laughing:

I have not had salsa on my omelet since then and I had to go back to the old stand by which is ketchup. As a kid, and most of my adult life, I thought ketchup on eggs or an omelet was disgusting, but at some point I had some and really liked it. :confused3: Add a bit of Texas Pete and its even better! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup: With this cough I just use the ketchup and leave off the Texas Pete.

What make no sense to me, is that I only to this at work. I don't put ketchup or salsa on the eggs/omelet at home. Strange.

Spoiling the kids again today. I made them pancakes, not stuff out of a box either, with fresh whipped cream that was not out of a can. Twas pretty good until the kids got into a fight at the table. :confused3:

Oh, well, it is a beautiful day out today, like yesterday, so we will have to do something to enjoy this weather. Wifey and one child are outside doing homework while I figure out what I will do... Should put the box blade on the tractor and work some soil...

Later,
Dan

Have any of you ever tried rice and scrambled eggs. Cook your rice the night before and keep it in the fridge. I usually put about a half cup 1% milk whipped with three eggs. Amd toss in a medium high heat skillet. As the eggs start to thicken I add about a. Cup of rice. Salt and pepper to taste. The kids put katsup on it. I tried it. Not bad but salt and pepper is good enough.

Interesting idea...I prepare a lot of those Knorr brand rice sides that come in a pouch...have some that is ready cooked now and will add some of that to my next batch of scrambled eggs. Then top it with medium salsa...

Problem is, I simply CRAVE bacon every morning.

Tell the rest of us what your traditional breakfast menu usually is.

Good Afternoon William,
I have the same problem, I love bacon and eggs ! But I do excersize some self discipline.

Maybe once a week on the bacon band wagon sometimes less. During the week if its winter, I eat oatmeal or Maypo, sometimes with fresh fruit on top.

Now that the warm weather is here I usually go with a healthier cereal, shredded wheat, raisin brand etc... but it doesnt come close to my once over easy eggs, strips of bacon, homefries with onion, and jewish rye toast, my trademark breakfeast !

I had a really healthy breakfast this morning. Took my wife to a small little rural diner near home......had me a big plate of homemade biscuits and gravy with two fried eggs on top......topped it off with a couple cups of coffee. Don't eat like that very often and my doctor probably would not be real happy about my choice......but.....man that was some good eating! Think I'll skip lunch and go lite on dinner tonight. :thumbsup:

A cup and a half of coffee makes a good breakfast.

Depends on how much water you plan on putting with it.

I have 1 cup coffee, and 1 scoop of an oatmeal mix I make. I get ten grain, 5 grain, and if I see it in the store 7 grain breakfast mixes and throw it all in a container. 1 scoop of that and berries from the freezer I am good all day until lunch. Takes 1 min in the microwave to make and I can prep it the night before.

Yes.



Jdgreen227, that is all you wanted right, a yes or no. You should have titled the Thread:
"How much fat and cholesterol did you eat this morning?"

Then my answer would be 2 grams of fat (in the flax seed meal and oatmeal), no cholesterol.

Good Morning!!!!
