If it's in the fridge and good I eat it
Left over pizza, pasta, Caesar salad
Or I make eggs, pancakes
I make an awesome country fried steak breakfast

Today?............Coffee. Period.

1/4 cup of part-skim ricotta cheese with a little vanilla and Equal, a few walnuts and fresh blueberries. And coffee! Delicious

Scramble
 

This morning my husband made breakfast and we had what he calls a scramble. Hash browns, egg, bacon, cheese, mixed up and fried in a nonstick pan. Seasoned with paprika and onion and garlic powder. Vegetable juice. Earl Grey tea. Delicious.

We said, just this week, it's time for our Cracker Barrel fix! Love the eggs on sourdough.

I am too ashamed of my unhealthy lunch choices to reveal them.

I wish that would be remembered by all those who read my threads.


Are you lecturing me?

On golf days I either have cereal or nothing - then I have crackers on the course.

On non-golf days, it could be sunny side up or scrambled eggs with bacon or sausage or bagels with butter and either sugar free jelly or hot jalapeno jelly or Jimmy Dean hot sausage on biscuits with mustard or cereal with canned fruit or, if I am luck, a couple of slices of cold leftover pizza with a can of Coca Cola. If I go out for breakfast, it is usually a western omelet with grits and wheat or rye toast, unless I am at TooJay's then it is a raisin bagel to go. I also like the make your own at Denny's - over easy eggs, bacon, grits, two pancakes with sugar free syrup.

Does the boiling water kill the live cultures in the yogurt? :)

Yummy

How does one eat a quarter of a bagel? Both in the portioning and the "that's not enough to eat" sense. :)

My blood sugar is always highest in the morning so my body is all no no no to food. I've therefore skipped the Most Important Meal of the Day ever since high school when my mother began allowing me to. My line has always been that I can't stand the thought of putting food on an empty stomach.

I get hungry and eat my first meal around 11 am, which -- getting to the point! -- today was a bowl of leftover zucchini soup and 2 sticks of string cheese.

I have a two o'clock feeding and was delighted that Nigella Lawson on the food channel raids the fridge in the middle of the night too. I thought it was just me and Dagwood.

So I will have some kind of leftover and go back to bed. I don't know why.. I always have.

And then I am not hungry for breakfast.

Yogurt that I make every week

Yesterday a friend in Columbus made four of us longtime friends the nicest breakfast. It was sliced hard-boiled eggs in a cheese sauce on whole wheat English muffins, fresh fruit, bacon, orange juice, and poppyseed muffins. A perfect sendoff of food and laughter before driving alone three hours back to hubs and dog and bird in Pittsburgh.

This morning it was coffee and a saltine left on a plate on the kitchen counter. Can't have a vanilla wafer every morning or I'll get in a rut.

Any yogurt bought in the supermarket is dead, there are not live bacteria left due to FDA regulations. If there were live cultures, you could reculture and make more yogurt. Real yogurt has the consistency of buttermilk, which is a drink. The food industry has added sugar and fillers, thickeners, which your body converts to sugar.

Only the best and true yogurt is one that you make yourself, with cultures....it is very easy. I get mine from New England Cheesemaking. One packet will make endless yogurt, using a small amount of finished yogurt to culture the next batch. And yes, heat will destroy cultures, temperature is very important.
