Check it out here: What's Cooking America/Breakfast
I scribbled down some new ideas, and then Googled "breakfast ideas" to see how to "make it look nice!" It was fun.
This morning I made an effort to cook a healthier and bigger breakfast....that will see us past 10 o'clock in the morning! :) I made:
- Egg, Tomato, & Mushroom Omelette
- Wheat toast
- Strawberry smoothies
Everything was a bit of a rush this morning, but I did manage to cut my toast into triangles....since I believe that makes them "fancy" and fun. Of course, one of these days I'll be able to manage my time so that I can actually butter or put jam on the toast too!....... ha
By far the biggest success this morning was the smoothie. Delicious! I will write out the simple instructions below. I've made smoothies before, but the last one wasn't so tasty.....I added orange juice, bananas, and no sugar....and it was pretty much a flop. But here, here is the keeper:
Berry Smoothies
Ingredients:
- 5-6 strawberries (fresh or frozen....mine happened to be fresh - though old)
- 1/4 cup blueberries
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 1 Tablespoon sugar
Blend it all up in a blender or food processor. Pour into cups and enjoy! (Can be adjusted for taste by using different berries and/or amounts of sugar) Also, remember to wash out the blender right away or you'll have a tough time later.... :)
More breakfasts to try in the future:
- Baked Eggs & Mushrooms in Ham Crisps (This will be great with the Sara Lee meat coupon floating around out there!)
- Eggs baked in Tomato Sauce
- Eggs Benedict & Fruit
- Poached Egg and Tomato on Potato Pancake
- Harvest Cinnamon Rolls
- Banana Almond Bread
- Mini Blueberry Turnovers
- Breakfast Tacos
- German Pancakes
- Casserole Florentine
- Virginia Ham Tarts (The best thing about these last two are they are Make-The-Night-Before kinds of recipes)
