What's for breakfast?

[Kaido]

Dutch pannekoek with bacon. (They're like crepes, but thicker)

My brother-in-law made these for us when he got back from the Netherlands...soooo good!

 

[Kaido]

scrambled eggs with green chiles, salt pork, white cheese, and spinach
atole
banana
OJ
DMD

DMD?

Stomach acid.

My stomach is gurgling from all the coffee I had around midnight.

But since im going to sleep soon, what I have when I wake up is my breakfast, I guess, and I think I'll have some whole wheat toast (dry), a banana, chocolate soymilk, and some green tea.

Have you ever tried chocolate almond milk? I think it's better than even real chocolate milk, if you get the right brand. I use this kind:

Greek omelet, rye toast and coffee.

I finally figured out how to add tomatoes to omelets...I slice them up, put them in a bowl with some water, and microwave them for 60 seconds. That makes them nice & soft...otherwise they're kind of tough to cut (the skin, anyway - pulls off the tomato like a string, bleh!) with just a fork in the omelet.

Yum thanks, need some breakfast inspiration.

Oh, well in that case, my latest creation:

Brown rice wrap (gluten-free, and it's actually tasty!)
Scrambled eggs
Tomatoes (microwave for 60 seconds in a bowl of water)
Avocado
Turkey bacon
Pork sausage (the real kind, in the soft tube wrap)
Sweet baby yellow, orange, and red peppers
Sweet onion
Sea salt

Currently experimenting with freezing these...I'd like to make a month's worth at a time and just microwave them. Cost savings + great flavor + reasonably healthy :thumbsup:

Dave,

What do you think?

Yup, anything in a box is most likely going to be highly processed. I like Almond Breeze almond milk (the Sweetened Vanilla line), but it's got as much sugar as some candy bars (the Very Vanilla Soymilk has like 16 grams per 8 ounces!). You can make it yourself, but it takes a bit of time (soaking, blender, cheesecloth, etc.). The lazy man's way is to get a Soymilk Machine, the G3 goes for $120:

Sounds expensive, but a lot of the fake milks I buy are like $6 a bottle. Curse you, dairy allergy! Haha. You can buy soy, rice, and almonds in bulk from food storage supply websites and just throw in a vanilla bean for a sweeter flavor.

That actually looks great, how long is prep & cook time?

 

[Kaido]

That actually looks great, how long is prep & cook time?

1 minute for the tomatoes (microwave in water)
5 to 10 minutes to carmelize the onions with EVOO (I throw the sweet peppers in there too)
10 to 15 minutes for the pork sausage (this stuff takes FOREVER to cook! taste is worth it though!)
2 minutes for the bacon (microwave tray wins here)
5 minutes for the eggs
30 seconds for the wraps (microwave to soften them up)

So probably about 20 minutes from start to finish if you start everything at the same time. I pretty much start it out as a giant omelet and then just kind of chop it up, almost like a messy quiche. That's why I'm experimenting with freezing them...if I can make a huge batch and they come out good out of the freezer, that will save loads of time in the morning!

The only thing I'm still trying to figure out is how to keep the wrap together. Right now I have to eat it by hand or in tinfoil because the rice flour doesn't stick together like wheat flour does. Maybe some hummus paste to glue it together or something, I dunno.

Edit:
changed bread to toast

Culinary sorcery!

 

[RossMAN]

Seems similar to Starbucks Chicken Sausage Wrap but tastier and cheaper, healthier?

Diet Mountain Dew. What God intended water to be but he cheaped out.

Hmm, may have to clone that! Mine is just a breakfast wrap. But check out the Starbucks ingredients:

It's actually pretty tasty with some picante sauce or salsa.

Uh oh http://www.livestrong.com/article/313249-the-side-effects-of-thiamine-mononitrate/

Eh, everything will kill you. Heck, life will kill you eventually If you doesn't bother you physically you're probably okay eating it lol.

It's been a fun year adjusting to the corn allergy...dextrose, maltodextrin, cornstarch, blah blah blah. So many things to avoid. They even put it in table salt! Haha. Fortunately, my cooking skills are second only to Alton Brown, so I've survived thus far! Huzzah! :awe:
