Already feeling dominated by my breakfast this morning. Ate leftovers off of kid plate. (not the espresso - I'm not that foolish)
-Espresso w/milk
-1/3 of a bagel with cream cheese
-Some sliced fruit

String cheese and a granola bar. The sun was shining this am and we wanted to go exploring so didn't want to take time cooking.

Today I had a cup of coffee and the last of my homemade blueberry muffins.  Now I just have to decide what kind of muffins I'm making for this week....

I made blueberry muffins this morning with buttermilk I froze a couple weeks ago.  Also threw in lemon flavoring and chopped up a banana from the freezer.  Had them with crispy bacon and ramen eggs (firm whites, runny yolks).   So yum!

@horsepoor sounds delish! I too was just thinking about what kind of muffins to make for next week's meal prep. Maybe some strawberry-chocolate chip muffins.

Looks like cherry almond it is!  Which is a favorite around here!  I have just about 1 cup of frozen cherries in the freezer, rescued from my fridge this summer.  This is the last of them.

@CutTheFat do you just deseed the cherries and send them straight into the freezer. I don't buy them often, but it has crossed my mind a few times to figure out how to freeze them for later use.

I made this strawberry-chocolate muffin recipe. Teaching DD's friends how to bake. They came out good. But I would like to add walnuts next time I think. I used Greek yogurt. Batter a bit thick because of it. Just adding Tbsp of almond milk to the batter did the trick. Muffins for week. Check, done.

Yes, that's exactly how I do it.  I've used them in smoothies and muffins and they are great.

Yesterday we had bagels w/cream cheese & bananas on the way to skiing. My husband even violated his "no food in the car" rule so we didn't have to stop.

Yesterday, I made 5 grain hot cereal for breakfast with cranberries, raisins, almond milk, vanilla, cinnamon, Truvia, maple extract, and egg whites. Winco sells this cereal over in the bulk section and I highly recommend it. I think it might even be BRM, but I forget. Anyway, I had some leftover, so I took it to work for breakfast. Looks like I might have breakfast from the leftovers till Wednesday. Also, 12oz of coffee with unsweetened almond milk and Truvia.

My post count is plenty high already. I post to get ideas from others and perhaps to give others some new ideas. I eat oatmeal plenty of mornings, but smoked salmon from Sam’s Club is nice, too.

I cannot stop laughing that such an innocuous thread has yielded two such answers on the same page. And, ditto @pbkmaine  - I like to get ideas & see how others make inexpensive breakfasts at home.

Toasted sourdough bread with cream cheese and avocado, black coffee.   Second breakfast in a few hours will be egg and cheese on a toasted English muffin.  (I'm up and going by 4 am every day. I eat second breakfast at work around 9:00)

Peanut butter toast as usual, but today I have chickory in my coffee (an expensive treat, which is ironic as it started as a cheap coffee substitute). I'm going to have to start growing chickory.

Crepes!  I can't remember the last time I made crepes, but I got a Bountiful Basket this week, which contained some out of season and unripe white nectarines.  Cooked a few of them down with brown sugar to make a nice fruit filling, and improvised a crepe recipe to use a little of the coconut flour I'm trying to use up.  I even happened to have powdered sugar (usually don't keep it around) and made a nice little snow over the top of them.

My go to is always 3 eggs, turkey bacon, peanut butter or avocado toast, and sometimes a bowl of raisin bran or cheerios. Cheap, but filling.

Pretty much the same as every other day. 2 eggs over easy with sauteed spinach and peppers with pan fried sweet potatoes on the side. 3 cups of coffee. Some days I add half an avocado.

Leftover salad with beet, apple, pecans, and goat cheese that I was afraid would go bad. It actually wasn't a bad breakfast...

Leftover asparagus and cherry tomatoes reheated with a diced, fried red potato and two homegrown eggs on top. 

Looking forward to making something tomorrow morning with the fresh blueberries that came in this week's Bountiful Basket.  Perhaps Berry Buckle?

Same thing every day:  about 40 ounces of French Press coffee with half and half, sometimes cream.  I drink about 24 ounces immediately and take the rest to work in a commuter mug.  No food till 11am lunch. 

When I travel for work this is the number one thing I miss-- that high octane coffee with real, full-fat dairy.

Yay for second breakfast @Trifele! :D

During the work week, the second breakfast part of my day is my fave.
