I've been interested in starting this thread for quite some time. I love breakfast but don't always think of fun or creative dishes. I usually have an egg and coffee. Perhaps we can share some fun ways to start the day!
I'll go first. I went outside my usual egg by adding a croissant, a little provolone cheese, turkey sausage plus a scrambled egg to make a fairly robust breakfast sandwich. It's winter, I'm in need of some extra excitement to start the day!

A breakfast casserole made with Texas toast, spinach, ham, gruyere & provolone cheese and eggs. It was okay? I don't usually eat much bread so think I would like a casserole with rice or potatoes more. But my guys liked it!

I'm ravenous in the morning and can eat a large breakfast but then most days skip lunch. Hubby works p/t M-W and eats cereal at 6 am. Too early for me to awake. I'll normally eat a large bowl of Multi grain Cheerios, sometimes with some diced peaches. Every once in a while I will have a Jimmy Dean egg and sausage croissant. The rest of the week when hubby is home we will have eggs and bacon with either toast or an English muffin once or twice. He eats farina once a week. Blech. Not a fan. And Sundays are always pancakes. Lately the mister has been on a poached egg kick, and we've been having 2 poached eggs on toast, minus the bacon.
I don't like to fuss in the morning as like I said, I am really hungry and don't want to wait.

My breakfast is rather boring BUT I love it! I have a cup of black tea (maybe 2) and a container of Chobani either red raspberry or vanilla yogurt! Every day! That is the only yogurt I love and those are the only two flavors I love!

I love big breakfasts. I'll skip dinner in a heartbeat but never breakfast. This morning I had oatmeal with a handful of chopped dates and walnuts. I usually have that or a poached egg on toast, sometimes an omelet with whatever veggies and cheese I have in the fridge. On weekends it's bacon or sausage, grits, eggs and toast. Sometimes we'll do waffles, French toast, or blueberry pancakes. And always two cups of coffee.

I just finished my usual egg and am sipping on coffee. I also had a patty of turkey sausage. Then off to the YMCA. Then will have some fruit to finish off my breakfast. And more coffee with oat or almond creamer.
I used to never want breakfast but now need to have it!

We had a couple of bananas that went from "too green" to "eat me NOW" overnight. Hubby made banana pancakes . . . yummy!

That is the only yogurt I love and those are the only two flavors I love! Mid morning I have my fruit. I am usually heading out to do errands or going to appointments and I grab fruit and go. Either an apple, or navel orange, or a baggie of green seedless grapes, or a banana.
(I meant to mention my fruit which is important to have).

Walnuts here too! I can't eat breakfast if I don't work out. So food motivates me! I had a yogurt parfait with figs and walnuts. And black coffee, which is the reason I get up in the morning.

Black coffee and a chia seed pudding with cashew milk and cranberries. This is my favorite! They stopped making it, and I was devastated. And they brought it back!

Plus, my stomach isn't able to handle those foods too early so if I'm going to have a big breakfast, like bacon and eggs, biscuits and gravy or corned beef hash, I have it for lunch or supper on a weekend. I just went to Denny's for my birthday meal last weekend. I'm still in the mood for breakfast so I might hit up a breakfast buffet this weekend. They weren't open on MLK Day or I would have gone then.

What is avocado toast? And, I must be the only person in America who dislikes avocado. Same for guacamole, too.

Avocado toast is just smashed avocados spread on toast. I tried it once but it was just meh to me. I'd rather have butter, peanut butter, cream cheese, or some other spread on my toast.

Eastcoast- you are the second person I know who hates avocado, lol! You guys are a rare breed, hehe! I don’t like guacamole only because it has onions in it!
I had an iced coffee and a banana

I get it, I didn't love avocado until I was in my 30's. Now I crave them, and they're super healthy. Avocado toast sprinkled with a little sea salt and fresh pepper topped with a poached egg is one of my favorite things. This morning I had scrambled eggs with a little shredded cheddar and a piece of raisin toast.
