3. Waffles with chocolate syrup, strawberry slices and whipped cream. (Actually that's better
as a dessert than a breakfast!)

I love blueberry pancakes and bacon. Sausage is also good. Also enjoy home-fries, toast, and corned beef hash, but only in restaurants.

10. Almost like a shortbread, yes.
Not sweet though. Until you put jam or honey on it.

9. biscuit



Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1/3 cup shortening
1 cup milk

Directions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Gradually stir in milk until dough pulls away from the side of the bowl.
Turn out onto a floured surface, and knead 15 to 20 times. Pat or roll dough out to 1 inch thick. Cut biscuits with a large cutter or juice glass dipped in flour. Repeat until all dough is used. Brush off the excess flour, and place biscuits onto an ungreased baking sheet.
Bake for 13 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges begin to brown.

14. ohh, I love breakfast!

But I'll insert the caveat here: must have eggs from well-treated chickens. Otherwise all bets are off.

I love a fried egg sandwich - super toasty english muffin, butter, some cheese.

Or an egg burrito with excellent salsa.

Or pancakes or french toast with some sort of fresh fruit; if it isn't real maple syrup, no thanks.

16. Oatmeal with a little cinnamon and turbinado sugar
I make mine in the microwave - 1/3 cup quick oatmeal, 1/2 cup fat free milk, a dash of salt, sprinkle of cinnamon. Nuke at 50% for three and a half minutes, stir, nuke until thick (I like mine really thick). Sprinkle turbinado (demeara) sugar over it, stir a pat of butter in if you feel indulgent.

19. Eggs Benedict is my favorite.
I have made it at home with sausage patties and gravy instead of the canadian bacon & hollandaise.

2nd favorite is 2 eggs, hash browns, bacon, toast.

But an Egg McMuffin was pretty good until the corps quit trying, and they quit toasting the muffin.

23. Start with roast beef hash...
Cook it until it is almost burnt. Add in some spaghetti sauce, onion, garlic, cholula sauce and dried mustard, heat it up then add two eggs and continue heating until the eggs are cooked. Serve with tater tots on the side (sprinkle onion powder on the tots before cooking) and also some fresh OJ and coffee. It looks like cat puke but it tastes yummy!

Plenty of bacon, crispy hash browns and a couple of scrambled eggs with a bit of grated cheese and a lot of Tabasco. OJ and good coffee with cream.

31. There'sa little diner by my house
that serves a thing called the Deep South:
Corned beef hash (crispy on the bottom) stacked with american cheese and 2 eggs over medium (I get medium but you could get whatever) and hash browns.

I get it pretty often.

But I am also a big fan of the Full English served at a nearby British pub. (I don't know what it is but I love English breakfast sausage while I am very indifferent towards regular American sausage links or patties. Sorry Jimmy Dean.)

And if my wife is cooking, I love her French Toast. But she doesn't like making it so I have to have been a verrrrry good boy that week.

34. On a side dish note
Why do Brits love those Heinz beans? Now I won't try to make like I am a world traveler just because I go to a lot of British style pubs but the ones I go to are proud of the Heinz beans on their menus. But here in my world Heinz is considered the inferior bean. Elite bean eaters choose Bush's (no relation to W that I know of and if I found out there was a relation I would throw the cans I have in the trash. OR maybe send them to a conservative republican homeless shelter.) (Which means throw them in the trash)

But with that said, the Heinz beans just works with that full breakfast. I don't eat them anywhere else but I also don't think I want any other bean there.



OR maybe I'm thinking of Van Camps. lol.

36. Am I cooking or is it restaurant fare?
If I'm making it, you are probably gonna get something along the lines of a chocolate chip bread pudding with fresh fruit and thick sliced bacon. I use a lotta cream and butter in my bread pudding and it is rich to the point of being almost a Pain Perdu.

If I'm eating out, I love Eggs Benedict or a Denver Omelet. Gotta have crispy hash browns and maybe even a big old glass of ice cold tomato juice with a slick of black pepper on the surface.

Coffee with real cream is a "have to" accompaniment with either meal, however, if you are at my house you may choose iced (cold brewed, of course...)mocha rather than hot coffee.
