    Recipe Saffron Semolina with Berries

    Banish all thoughts of lumpy semolina school dinner puddings and transform semolina into a seductive treat. This dish would be good for breakfast but it could be served in smaller portions as a dessert. I think it works hot or cold. If serving cold you may want to add more milk as the semolina...

    Recipe Granola Bars

    Based on the ingredients of a ready-mix pack from Marks and Spencer cooked by @Kake Lover - see here! I worked out proportions of each ingredient and made it from scratch. I used a little more butter than the ready-mix suggests as the mix didn't seem to be adhering. This might be because I used...

    The Breakfast Myth

    Is eating breakfast really so important? Would it matter if you never ate breakfast? For years, we’ve been told that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But one former Cambridge University lecturer hopes to challenge this way of thinking. Terence Kealey, 64, believes breakfast is a...

    Recipe Rhubarb, Rose and Almond Bircher Porridge

    I've had a hard time deciding on which recipes to try out for the rhubarb ingredient challenge but have finally decided on this one as one of them. I've had to dairy free it, which veganises it as well, but it sounds good, so good that I'll have it for breakfast and evening meal whilst my...

    Would you eat eggs on Weetabix?

    The makers of Weetabix have sent Twitter into a meltdown thanks to a bizarre serving suggestion on the back of a cereal box. The company advised customers to try putting poached eggs and sliced ham on top of their dried Weetabix. It’s supposedly a bit like Eggs Benedict. Would you try it...

    Recipe Vanilla & Raspberry Polenta Porridge

    This is one of my combinations that I like for breakfast. It doesn't need much in the way of polenta for a single person, and usually I manage to make way too much tbh. I put a touch of sugar in it initially and then add what I need afterwards to make it sweet enough for my tastes but not too...

    A "Welsh" Breakfast

    Back in '69 I started a new job in South Wales which involved 7 x 12+ hour days therefore actually having time to cook was out of the question. The job involved a lot of time "on the road" and one of my favourite stops for breakfast was a transport cafe just outside Abergavenny. Breakfast...

    Breakfast in Melbourne

    I absolutely loved living in Australia for the breakfast culture there. One of the cities I spent a lot of time in has a wonderful breakfast and coffee culture, and there's an Instagram account of people taking pictures of their breakfasts at cafes there...

    What is your favorite breakfast combo?

    I love breakfast, it is probably one of my most favorite meals of the day. When thinking of breakfast, I will usually make or order my usual, sunny side eggs, bacon, home fries and rye bread to dip in my yolk. I love this combo for breakfast so much I will often eat for dinner also. What is...

    Sweet or Savory Breakfast?

    This is a bit of a point of contention in our household. I have to have a sweet breakfast. That's not to say it has to be loaded with sugar, but I'll take fruit/granola/yogurt any day of the week over bacon, eggs, and toast. That could be to do with the fact I really dislike eggs, but that's...

    Cereal - are you a crunchy or a soggy fan?

    This probably sounds a little weird, but my husband is eating cereal right now and it made me think of it... He loves his cereal with tons of milk. I'd say the ratio is like three amounts of milk to the amount of cereal he puts in the bowl. For me, on the other hand, I barely put any milk in...

    Starting off the New Year with what for breakfast?

    It's the New Year here in Japan - bright and early, too (it's JUST going 6am - wow!) I had a quiet night last night and actually feel quite well rested! I'm starting my morning with a couple of gluten free blueberry waffles (I'm not on a gluten free diet, I just like the taste of these...

    Eating out for breakfast

    How often would you say you eat out (at a restaurant or café) for breakfast? Here in Japan, it's honestly pretty hard to eat out for breakfast. There's a bit of a culture here of places only opening around 10am -- so that means that it's a bit late for a traditional breakfast hour - it can be...

    How do you take your coffee?

    Okay, let me start off by saying I am a true coffee lover!!!!! I do not start my day without one and I definitely enjoy more than one a day. Usually, I just add some milk and half a teaspoon of sugar. On the rare occasion, I buy the specialty creamers, you know the International Delight flavored...

    Breakfast Burritos

    One of my hubby's favorite weekend breakfasts are breakfast burritos. Basically, he gets a tortilla, scrambles a couple eggs, adds some refried beans, salsa, cheese, and chorizo sausage if we have it...and wraps it all up. It's probably not the most low calorie of breakfasts but he thinks it's...

    What does the world eat for breakfast?

    I find videos like this fascinating and informative. Having lived in Australia, the USA and right now Japan, I can say that those three "stereotypical" representations of breakfast are reasonably accurate! Is your country on there? Would you say the video represents your country's average...

    Recipe Homemade Breakfast Cookies

    Many years ago when my children were small, I use to make a breakfast cookie that they all liked. It had eggs, of course, along with bacon and orange juice and wheat germ. They were easy to make, but because of the bacon in them, I stored them in the refrigerator. On mornings when we over...

    "Healthy" cookies for breakfast

    I used to make homemade granola bars quite often when my kids were little. It was just a variation of a good, oatmeal, cookie recipe that I had. It was a healthier version than most cookies, so I just made them into bars with fruits and nuts and oats. The kids loved them. What do you think...

    What do you do with leftover grits?

    In my house we do not eat grits very often but when we do there is always some leftover. I hate to throw food out but leftover grits do not taste very good to me. I found a recipe to make oats and grits muffins which did not sound too good to me but I gave a try and was surprised that they...

    Hotel "Continental Breakfasts"

    I've been and will continue to be staying at a hotel for the next few weeks, and I've been taking advantage of the "free" continental breakfast offered each morning, since eating at restaurants and even buying microwavable food is starting to add up rather quickly. I was a bit surprised to see...
