What's for breakfast?

I eat dinner stuff almost all day. Frozen dinners in the microwave.

But! When I do eat breakfast!

I love me a good Benedict !

My favorite is eggs Florentine… (which is hard to come by)

Eggs Florentine is just English toast, spinach, tomato’s, poached eggs and hollandaise sauce.

You can sprinkle cayenne on it.

I prefer the vegetarian route for my Benedict’s … but! I must admit … I had a seared mahi mahi Benedict in Hawaii that was divine.

My other staple for breakfast is hash browns… I’m very picky about them. Not too soft, and not a lethal weapon because they’re too crispy!

I kinda equate a good hollandaise sauce with something luxurious like a truffle sauce. Hmmm, I could probably make Hollandaise sauce into a soup it is so delicious.

Yeah… hollandaise is hard to make. I met a hotel chef when I was in my late teens / early 20’s who opened his own restaurant … made the standard Benedict with the ham, but his hollandaise sauce was the best I ever tasted. He told me one day that his secret was how much lemon juice he put into it.

Another amazing Benedict I’ve had was a bacon / arugula Benedict with spicy hollandaise

Crab Benedict’s are good too

I’m kind of a Benedict freak.

but mimosas tho

…same as all week, but with a glass of kombucha to sip-on after, today - the stuff really is good for One’s physical constitution… must be the polyphenols, flavonoids, and vitamins & minerals, I presume.

Same as above (quelle surprîse :icon-rolleyes: ), but with the addition of a Cell Salt… combination 12.

…to be followed by intermittent exercise of the dynamic-HITT kind.

Your diastolic number seems high in light of your healthy eating habits and exercise regimen. Any idea why? Heredity”?

Me: My exercise regimen, not my eating regimen, has been almost non-existent for almost a year now, apart from a few workouts here-and-there to stop me from feeling lazy… and therein the problem may lie :laughing: so I’ve just recently started, like intermittent eating/fasting, intermittent dynamic-HITT training… it’s much more pleasurable/less-boring to do than a set exercise regimen.

Three spiced eggs sunny side up over buttered five seed toast.

Name the seeds, please.

Brown flax, golden flax, sesame, black sesame, and sunflower, lots of texture with actual flavor packed into 1 carb per slice, made by Aunt Millie’s Co. in Indiana, named Live Carb Smart. I actually called their headquarters to see if their products could be ordered directly online. No. Big fat bummer.

Cinnamon and spice oatmeal with 1/2 Tbs brown sugar and milk.

A courgette, radish, celery, and watercress omelette, and an XL coffee… for brunch. Health on a plate…

Maltomeal with cinnamon, coconut palm sugar, and skim milk.

…was very palate-cleansing, which is perfect for a morning… scrambled eggs, home-made diced ceviched-salmon, with a watercress garnish… a bowl of cantaloupe melon, on the side.

_
Spot the difference… besides the lack of fruit.


[tab]My morning coffee is now a R not an XL… eating more fruit and vegetables seems to be more filling long-term, and so an XL becomes far too much, for a fibre-filled gut.[/tab]

I had breakfast hours ago, so a very early one indeed, of XL coffee and 3 scrambled eggs.

I’m already thinking of what to have for dinner tomorrow, as today’s is already sorted from yesterday’s… I’m thinking seafood… brown crab meat and/or squid or cuttlefish.

…and back to sleep, I go.

In Montreal I woke up around 7 AM just because I was looking forward to breakfast so much.

Walk through the crisp snow to the diner, mugs of coffee and eggs, bacon and excellent fried potatoes, spending hours there writing, looking at squirrels and trying to figure out the quebequoise gossip from the waitresses.

The dining out was not as good, with the exception of Asian food.

A FR-3-egg, Organic vegetable omelette… was absolutely delicious and bloomin filling. Been quiet all day, so a good frontyard-cleaning kinda day… felt enjoyable, rather than a chore. More Autumn-cleaning tomorrow.

Well that was deceptively filling… two fried eggs, pacon (pork loin sliced into rashers), a watercress garnish, and a coffee… the home-made kombucha, to sip, whilst browsing the forums after finishing eating.

My third day on vitamin D drops and I feel fully present and wide awake, without that clinging drowsy tiredness that’s felt behind the eyes… and yes, I take baby supps. 8- [

A delicious bag of extra buttery popcorn. So good!

A coffee/omelette break fast…

Oh yea, and my daily dose of Vitamin D3 baby Drops… energising.
