So--what did y'all eat this morning at your house--no matter who made it?

At ours today:

Pillsbury crescent rolls with Nutella inside. I used the 4 pack of rolls, or else I would have done some with cheese inside to have some savory ones.

DH will put jam inside. I wonder what that would be like with a little cream cheese--probably better than jam alone. Jam gets very messy very quickly. A little dab'll do ya.

Linking this thread. This thread is about ideas for breakfast, and the teen breakfast thread has some good ones.

Looking for quick easy breakfast for Teen

Macabre:
Today: breakfast burrito Italian style (we only had 6-cheese Italian shredded cheese in hand). I did a two-egg burrito, since I had the 8" flour tortillas on hand (with the smaller ones I do one egg).

It's wrapped and ready yk grab on the way out the door, which is how breakfast happens on school mornings and why I am looking for more ideas).

DS# 2 and I use this often:

I use the "light" whole grain eng.muffins, we put on cholula hot sauce, cheese and mine get spinach or avocoado. DS gets a banana or apple on the side with a glass of milk

We also do a lot tortilla/egg burritos (Cholula, potatoes, salsa, sausage, bacon, cheese...whatever we have...), with fruit on the side.

DS#1 eats an egg sandwich/burrito, bowl (i.e. trough ~)) of cereal and a fruit - he's 15 and on the track team - bottomless pit!

Sometimes ds#2 wants 2 fried eggs, toast and fruit.

This morning I had an egg, and 1/2 avocado on a piece of toast.

3+ times/week I try to do a green smoothie (16oz)and I eat a handful of almonds or cashews later in the morning - the boys will drink an 8 oz serving if I make them

leftover crepes/pancakes/waffles - when I make these on weekends I make extra for school mornings :)

I have a POT of tea b/4 I get to work :hiding:

Typical here is cereal. My kids don't eat eggs, dd will eat bacon with her cereal if I make it. Sometimes I make crepes or french toast.

For me, I often have 1-2 scrambled eggs or egg beaters, I ma or may not add a little cheese, or do an omelette with onions and spinach or Kale. Other days, I may do 3 turkey breakfast sausage links and something else, maybe one egg, or egg beaters, or some piece of toast or a light English muffin. Always decaf coffee with half and half. If I am avoiding gluten, which i float in and out of, I may add quinoa to my scramble for some carbs.

I should get back into smoothies. I like one with Greek yogurt, spinach, blueberries, ground flax and a packet of truvia. I add some ice and water to it as needed.
