What is your favourite breakfast ?

Eggs benedict.

I rarely make it for myself though, usually if I'm at home I'll have porridge. Which is also awesome, if slightly less attractive.

I make my own muesli which is basically just porridge oats and mixed dried fruit and nuts and some cinammon which I soak overnight in milk, it's lovely. It was after a thread on here that I tried it and now I really enjoy it. I need to make some more actually, i've eaten it all.

Snap, but I have never made it, this is what I like when I go out for breakfast.

My fave breakfast at home is pancakes with cheese, ham & icing sugar, mmmmmmmmm!

My fav weekend breakfast (when I actually have time to cook it) is French toast (with ketchup!)
Close runner up is scrambled eggs on wholewheat toast with very crisp pieces of smoky bacon scattered over the top. And apple juice with ice.

Weekday breakfast is Alpen with milk at home and then grapes and pistachio nuts in the office. Or Rache's low-fat vanilla yoghurt with strawberries and blueberries.

I have to admit to being very excited last week when we had Coco Pops, courtesy of a 7-year-old overnight guest. God, they were good!

Another vote for eggs benedict. I can never be bothered to make the sauce though so always get it in a jar (and I still haven't managed to figure out how to stop it sliding off the eggs).

Mine is pancakes (of the French crepe variety) cold and spread with a bit of butter. Then you fold them up and dip into hot white coffee and chomp away.

This is the traditional way of eating crepes and in my book it's the best ?

Granola, greek yoghurt and berries. yum.

I'll second that. Got to be layered in a nice glass dish though. Berries or any chopped fresh fruit at the bottom, a thick layer of greek yoghurt, a drizzle of honey on top of that and topped with granola.

Or blueberry buttermilk pancakes for the occasional indulgent breakfast. I couldn't face them every day though.

And I do enjoy a nice poached egg on toast. ?

I've got a top 5

1. Staffordshire oatcakes with cheese ad sausage (best from the shop but homemade also yum)

2. Eggs benadict

3. Waffles with fruit and syrup

4. Blueberry pancakes

5. Fatty porridge (made with full fat milk and fresh fruit)

I love breakfast, weekend breakfasts tend to be better and off that list though, in the week all I can manage is toast or cereal

Eggs benedict is a recent notion of mine, also enjoy a couple of rahers cut up small and a can of beans dumped over the pan lots of worcester sauce, fruity flaky cereal with yoghurt instead of milk or rye bread, bratwurst and a hard boiled egg. All taken with copious tea.

PS coco pops.

I'm afraid I'm a fry up girl. Once in a while I'll treat myself to bacon, sausages, scrambled eggs, fried bread and baked beans. Yummy.

Alternatively I love pancakes, bacon and maple syrup.

However, day to day I have wholemeal toast and raspberry jam.

Granola soaked overnight in milk and served with yoghurt and honey

Soft bolied/poached eggs with sourdough toast and some wilted spinach and mushrooms

Fruit fruit fruit

Pancakes with blueberries and bacon and maple syrup

Eggs benedict

Kippers

Porridge with fruit and nnuts and a tot of whisky

Freshly made scones

Marmite toast

Bacon butties

An ulster fry (cooked breakfast with soda bread and potato bread)

Wild mushrooms on sesame toast (you can get bags of frozen mushrooms in supermarkets), with rocket and tomatoes

Croque monsieur, add a fried egg for a croque madame

Savoury muffins (bacon and courgette or cheese) or a not-so-sweet sweet one, like apple and cinnamon, or carrot, or banana and yoghurt

Waffles

Home fries

There are lots of mexican one with spicy eggs and thing that I can never remember the name of

Chicken noodle soup, thai style, or miso soup can be lovely at breakfast

Smoothies

Yummy, yummy, in my tummy! ?

I usually just have fruit for breakfast but my best favourite is thick cut french toast with fruit salad a la NYC. ?

I think I'm the only person in the world who can take or leave eggs benedict, although I love all its components. I find the richness of the sauce overwhelms the egg.

KN, this is probably quite grim in the eyes of some, but I have done a similar thing with leftover beraise sauce, which was lovely and not quite so rich.

Is it Hollandaise sauce? Does anyone have a T&T recipe?

Delia has a good foolproof recipe parkley, I'lll see if I can find it for you...

Weekday breakfast is usually Rice Krispies with granulated sweetner and then a mid-morning coffee. If I'm in a mad rush then it's a Kellogg's Oat Baked Bar and coffee.

At weekends we usually have time for a more leisurely breakfast so toast and honey or a vegetarian cooked breakfast with fried eggs, baked beans, mushrooms, chipped potatoes and toast. We only tend to have porridge in the winter months.

I've just seen this Geekypants:

Might need to try it this weekend, or even for supper one day.

Geekypants, huevos rancheros? H always orders this.

I also find the sauce with eggs benedict a bit grim. It's too rich and buttey for me.

I adore sour cream pancakes with bacon and maple syrup (but they mustn't touch) with a bloody Mary or pomegranate bellini.

At home I love ricotta scrambled or a runny boiled egg with toast, Nigella's granola, toast with raspberry jam and crunchy peanut butter or a big bowl of berries (I really wish I liked yoghurt).

At the moment, I'm being virtuous and eating a bran muffin from the health food store, peanut butter and berries most days.

I love breakfast, but most days it's just a banana or a coffee.

I love buttermilk pancakes with maple syrup, berries and bacon.

Also, toasted bagel, buttered, with creamy scrambled eggs and smoked salmon.

I love a greek cheese called anari, it's like ricotta but nicer. It's great on toasted greek bread with honey drizzled over the top.

My all time favourite has to be corned beef hash the way they make it in the Las Vegas hotels. I've never been able to replicate it, but it's kind of mashed corned beef with finely chopped onion, and teeny tiny potato cubes. Heaven. Otherwise I love a good scottish breakfast (haggis, bacon, square sausage, egg, beans) or huevos rancheros.

Normally during the week it's muesli, porridge or toast and at weekends it's scrambled egg on toast, huevos rancheros or a bacon sandwich. I only get the corned beef hash in Vegas, and the Scottish brekkie when I'm in Edinburgh (so once a year).

That sounds very like the hash that used to be my favourite breakfast in Army ration packs.... It was a marmite dish, either loved or hated. Which meant being mates with a hater or two could mean big breakfasts.

Thanks so much everyone, lots of yummy sounding ideas for weekend breakfast , I will be busy!

Fresh fruit and champagne.

Smoked salmon and scrambled eggs mmmmm

Eggs benedict (not too much hollandaise or the muffin goes soggy)

I also have a weakness for a full cooked breakfast but very rarely have it as it's not the healthiest - sausage (square or links), bacon, fried egg, fried mushrooms, fried tomato, potato scone mmmm sometimes I will have just a roll and square sausage and potato scone yum.

Mr R's absolute fave is smoked haddock and poached egg. I like that but find it more of a brunch rather than a breakfast thing.

Atm though I am just having rice krispie with a banana chopped over and skimmed milk!

I like all of the following:

Almond croissants (sometimes with nutella)

French toast with maple syrup (sometimes with bacon)

A bowl of granola, yoghurt and fruit

A lorne sausage roll with HP sauce (good for days when I need a bit of stodge for any reason!)

I just got back from cyprus where breakfast consisted of a selection of cold meats, cheeses and salads, with bread, fresh fruit and good strong coffee.

My favourite though has to be a good Irish fry up - bacon, sausages, white pudding, a couple of fried eggs and a big pile of buttered soda bread.

ohh roobarb you have just reminded me ofeating kedgeree on holidays as a kid...yum yum.

nowadays i am probably more of a pancakes girl or eggs florentine...but day to day it tends to be a coffee whilst I get Dd up and dressed then another coffee and whatever aI can find in the work dining room (normally a piece of fruit or a roll and marmalade).

Dippy eggs and soldiers!! Or scrambled eggs, but this is only weekends.

During the week..

Frosties

Honey loops

Ricicals

All naughty cereal is followed by lots of good fruit! So therefore makes it less naughty! I love kiddy cereal! My OH has bran flakes and other boring grown up cereals! x

Sesame bagels with cream cheese and very crispy streaky bacon for me and OH likes this with smoked salmon. tend to have this as brunch on a sunday before i go to work.
