Coffee, peanut butter sandwich, and a banana (shout out gwen Stefani)

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Pot of coffee, a bowl of dried figs, and a few pieces of dark chocolate.

Then I fire a heater at a porcelain target fast enough to launch a small payload into orbit.

[–] IHeartBadCode@fedia.io 5 points 6 days ago

A glass of water. About an hour later a cup of coffee. For lunch I usually have a slice of bread toasted, with butter and jam followed by a cup of coffee.

This pretty much every day.

[–] sunshine@lemmy.ml 5 points 6 days ago

I went quite a few years making oatmeal for myself and my kids every day, usually with brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and frozen blueberries.

the kids have stopped enjoying it, though, after all the repetition, so we've started doing breakfast cereal, Raisin Bran and one of the Cheerios permutations that has some oat/nut ingredients, so these days I just have Raisin Bran.

[–] JakoJakoJako13@piefed.social 5 points 6 days ago

Eggs and Bacon if I'm cooking. Scrapple if I'm feeling extra PA. If I'm not cooking and I grab something quick it's usually a breakfast sandwich from somewhere.

[–] randomcruft@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 6 days ago

Oatmeal with honey, fruit, and tea… typically.

[–] mmmac@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 days ago

I've been intermittent fasting recently so breakfast isn't till around noon, but it'll either be 3 eggs, turkey bacon and an avocado, overnight oats that I'll prep, or Greek yoghurt with berries chia seeds and nuts, or a blended fruit smoothie with some whey protein depending on what I'm feeling for the day

Varies.

Sometimes if I’m motivated, an egg, pesto, and cheese grilled.

Otherwise, cereal. A banana. Something real simple and easy.

[–] HakunaHafada@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 days ago

Always coffee. Food options include low-sugar cereal, a banana, toast, fresh dates, cheese.

[–] ApatheticCactus@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Two eggs, two sausage links, and a fruit smoothie consting of a banana, apple, orange, grapefruit, and lime, with some kombucha and maybe frozen berries.

[–] Vupware@lemmy.zip 3 points 6 days ago

Nicotine and high-octane energy drink or multiple cups of coffee. If I eat something, it’s usually a sweet treat like a donut or pastry. Hearty food in the morning makes me queasy and an appetite for real food usually doesn’t surface until almost lunch time.

[–] happydoors@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

I’ll make a latte and snack on some nuts sometimes. Wife has avocado toast or two eggs

If I'm working, I don't have the energy to do more than a toasted bagel with cream cheese. On the weekend, especially if I manage to sleep in, I might do something like an omelette or egg sandwich of some kind. If I have the time, I might go big and break out a can of corned beef hash, cook that up and poach an egg in the middle of it, then have that with some toast.

If it was easier to get and keep fruit without it spoiling before I can eat it, I'd probably throw in a mandarin orange or something as an easy to eat side to my usual bagel, but American supermarkets make it hard to buy small batches of food more frequently rather than making a trip twice a month to stock up on groceries.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

It varries. Pizza if I have left overs. A egg or just dry toast usually

Water.

Maybe a chai latte, yogurt, a piece of fruit, or chocolate oat milk.

[–] Unlearned9545@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Cereal with milk and nuts

[–] falynns@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Water, yogurt and granola, or frozen breakfast sandwich. Sometimes nothing.

[–] Ioughttamow@fedia.io 4 points 6 days ago

Coffee, ground at home, made in a French press. I’ve switched to decaf because I’m taking stimulants now for my certified quirkiness

Edit: I normally don’t eat for breakfast, but lately I’ve been having lightly toasted English muffins with chili crisp cream cheese on top

[–] chunes@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Rice chex, english muffin with peanut butter or butter and jam. Handful of almonds and sunflower kernels. And a banana.

[–] DrunkAnRoot@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 days ago

back in my day it was waffels eggs and coffee but now adays with inflation its a monster

[–] twice_hatch@midwest.social 4 points 6 days ago

Puffed corn cereal sweetened with corn sugar

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemmy.zip 4 points 6 days ago

I personally tend to have leftovers from dinner if there are any and if it's leftovers I care about. Otherwise, I'm not a big breakfast fan.

[–] Legge@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

Cottage cheese, granola, and a little bit of jelly/ jam/ preserves (and coffee of course). Right now I'm using blueberry. It keeps me from being hungry for a few hours, which is good enough for me

oatmeal or yogurt with coffee

[–] platypode@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 days ago

Either a large piece of buttered toast or a bowl of yogurt.

[–] tal@lemmy.today 4 points 6 days ago

This morning, I had bacon, easy-over eggs, stir-fried potatoes, and buttered rye toast.

[–] foodandart@lemmy.zip 4 points 6 days ago

I have a cup of coffee (milk, no sugar) two fried eggs and a piece of buttered toast.

[–] finalarbiter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Depending on how much time I have, either some eggs or a piece of fruit. And a fuckload of coffee

[–] skooma_king@piefed.social 4 points 6 days ago

Either an egg over easy with whole wheat toast, overnight steel rolled oats with fruit and walnuts, or a smoothie with no sugar yogurt, walnuts, and fruit

Coffee and on sundays it’s coffee……. With croissants

[–] Wytch@lemmy.zip 4 points 6 days ago

Coffee and oatmeal, coffee and pancakes, coffee and eggs, coffee and cereal, coffee and scone, coffee and waffles, or coffee and breakfast burrito.

Sometimes I'll get a cappuccino with oat milk because I'm lactose Intolerant.

[–] TheTurner@lemmy.zip 3 points 6 days ago

It depends on my mood or if I'm in a rush.

A lot of times something like an egg sandwich, grain based cereal, or a peanut bar.
