We spend so much time cooking amazing breakfasts for our guests, I was curious what most of us eat. My first year as an innkeeper I gained so much weight! I was eating all that yummy stuff. Couldn't do that anymore.
This morning I made a smoothie with leftover fruit from yesterday and threw in fresh papaya.
 
Leftover Anadama bread with greek yogurt. My favorite.
I bring the leftover muffins and coffee cakes to work (I work in an office) and they are gone in minutes.
On the weekends, I serve muffins, yogurt and fruit and then make myself eggs and toast. :)
 
You won't believe it, because I go through these phases... normally it's a bagel but today... Pop Tarts!
 
Chia pudding with berries and walnuts. I am loving this stuff and considering using it in a fruit course for guests, perhaps just a bit layered in a fruit parfait instead of yogurt. I can definitely see using it for vegan guests.

HAHAHAHAHA...Caught ya!

Well, it's the truth. Worst part... I had a muffin on the counter that I should have had... I bought it on Saturday and it's still there.
 
Four egg whites and an egg scrambled and a slice of ezekiel bread with honey. Only interrupted once while trying to inhale it!

Very interesting! I had to google it to see what it was. I've never used chia seeds for anything except for chia pets!

Chia pudding! I have a recipe something like that I was wondering about. Now I have to try it!
 
savory crepes (fresh sausage, fresh leeks, mushrooms) greek yogurt with cilantro, fresh mango, fresh pink dragon fruit, fresh lychee
 
I made myself a helping from our "Do It Yourself Muesli" shelf this morning, adding fresh Scottish strawberries, they're at their best at the moment.
Yesterday I used what was left of the pancake batter to make to pancakes, sandwiched with strawberries and drenched in maple syrup.
 
1 bite of egg and 1/4 helping of home fried potatoes... and 3 cups of coffee

I know! Ch-ch-ch-chia...
I heard about chia seeds as the latest health food trend and saw recipes and pics of the pudding for a while before I finally tried it. Surprised myself by liking it!
Easy peasy: Put 2 1/2 - 3 tablespoons seeds in a 250ml jam jar; add some kind of milk (dairy, almond, etc) to about 3/4 full; screw the lid on tight and shake to mix. Refrigerate overnight to let it thicken. In the morning, add nuts, fruit, or sweeten to taste.
 
I used to think that a bowl of cereal was a great breakfast because it was low fat. Now, I'm avoiding it like crazy because of all the carbs & sugar. Lately, I've been doing omelets for myself. Mixed bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, black forest ham and swiss cheese. Yum!

Oh, i get weak-kneed over Pop Tarts. *sigh* I sometimes go to the aisle in the store and fawn over them. Can't buy them. No way. It's like Lay's potato chips - you can't eat just one. Mega weakness!
