Forgot about smoothies, we do raw milk/egg/frozen fruit smoothies as well. And sometimes we do yogurt. ds2 loves yogurt with raw honey

wow you ladies must have a good amount of energy when you wake up! I can't bring myself to cook first thing in the morning...no way! Most things mentioned here are things I might make for lunch or dinner but never breakfast...too much work when I'm still half asleep!

we almost always have some sort of meat usually sausages (turkey with apple, pork, chicken), eggs, cheese, plain whole yogurt with frozen fruit, fresh fruit. occasionally well have homemade hashbrowns.

i have espressos with a couple ounces pastured heavy whipping cream.

my favorite breakfast would be poached eggs over greens and ham with hollandaise but almost never make it.

samy- We don't do breakfast early. If my kids really need food before 10 a.m. they grab fruit or drink some milk or something. Typically, I cook between 10-11 a.m. unless we have to be somewhere. We homeschool, btw.

We eat a quick breakfast, before DD1 gets the school bus; I don't really like to cook in the morning. Most days, we have cold boiled eggs and homemade full-fat yogurt with some kind of fruit. Sometimes we have some leftover bread to toast, or we have soaked oatmeal or some soaked flour muffins. We also drink orange juice in the winter. In the summer, we have an herbal tea.

When there's bacon in the house, we have that sometimes, too, but not often because I can't deal with cooking it first thing in the morning..

We do a variety of things--soaked oatmeal with butter and dried fruit/crispy nuts, leftovers--specially stir-fries and the like--cheesie eggs, DH's favorite--scrambled eggs with shredded extra sharp cheddar mixed in. I have been on a poached egg kick the past few days. I also really love a cucumber/tomato/cream cheese/spinach and avocado sandwich on sprouted grain bread. OH YUMMY! We tried to go grain free, but have discovered that my diabetes is under better control with some grains, so I make them all whole grains, no white flour/rice/noodles and the like. I also do coffee or tea in the am.

Now my dd LOVES scrambled eggs and will scarf down 3 don in a T+ of butter most mornings. She is 4'10 and 90 pounds, not an ounce of fat on her! Lucky girl )

**Forgot to add** we do smooties a lot in the warmer weather--yogurt, ground flax seed, banana, frozen berries, nut butters, raw yolks...

Lately it's been eggs and sausage, cottage cheese and applesauce - the cc is not terribly TF, but I need the fat/protein to get me through.

Sometimes I'll make egg custards or egg muffins for the week - and now that it's warming up again I need to start doing that again.
