I usually (almost always) have youghurt with m?sli with added nuts and seeds and fresh fruit.

If I've run out of youghurt I make porridge with basically the same ingredients, except the youghurt.

I've had the same breakfast almost every day for several years: about three tablespoons of all-natural peanut butter spread on a saucer, topped with a light sprinkling of salt and a handful of half-sugar dried cranberries. No bread.

I don't really get the resistance to eggs, though. Yes, the prices are up (that damn Biden!  :laugh:) but at my kind-of-expensive grocery store they range from $5.50 to about $8, which means you can easily still get a meal's worth for a dollar or two. I mainly don't eat eggs because I'm too lazy to make them.

These are all good ideas. It's hard to find a good yogurt in American grocery stores. All dairy tastes so much better in Europe. Gelato tastes so good that I have not been able to eat American ice cream any more. But I digress.

There used to be a cereal called Mueslix sold here but it wasn't very popular. I think I might be able to find it at a health food store or Whole Foods. Granola is sold instead and that varies in quality.

I don't know if I could stomach peanut butter in the morning, with its, shall we say, unusual texture. I'm actually used to paying about $6 a dozen for eggs because I buy them from a local farm. In early February I bought 18 eggs for $11 and I'll probably do that again soon. But I want to diversify my morning meal and use a substitute, such as applesauce, when I bake.

I've bought eggs from local farms before. It's amazing how much noticeably better they are.


What's for breakfast? Reportedly it's BUTTER HOT SAUCE JAM SYRUP   :laugh:

It's easy to find good, unsweetened yoghurt in the stores here, but my yoghurt comes directly from an organic farm I'm a member of. As do my veggies and meat.

It's not difficult to make your own high quality muesli if you can't find it in stores. Mix several kinds of cereals, such as oatflakes, ryeflakes, buckwheat (not a cereal, I know), barley and/or others. Add whatever you like of nuts and seeds or dried/fresh fruit.

Several years ago I had a period of making porridge every morning. I would soak some whole barley and oat overnight, and cook it with muesli and fresh fruit in the morning.

I don't know what you mean about the texture of peanut butter, but I like it on whole wheat toast or a whole wheat bagel. I don't eat it every morning; I don't have toast or a bagel every morning. When I do have toast or a bagel I like to switch off the toppings, some days vegetable cream cheese, some days strawberry jam or preserves, some days peanut butter.

Some mornings I have raisin bran, some mornings I have oatmeal, and sometimes I have eggs and toast. Sometimes I even make an omelet.

Today was two eggs with two slices of whole wheat toast and coffee.

When I was a kid, I would put peanut butter on toaster waffles.   So good!
