What Do You Eat for Breakfast?

What do you eat for breakfast and with what drink? Do you treat yourself to a better breakfast on weekends? More time for pancakes or bacon and eggs or a McDonald’s breakfast.

    As much as I like a mans breakfast I'm trying to lose weight so breakfast is a almond milk/mango/banana smoothie with a bit of protein powder.
    Saturday is toasted sourdough, avocado, eggs bennedict though.

    Breakfast is a made up meal by the cereal industry. Wake up sheeple.

  • +2

    Replacement Meal Shake with psyllium husk, keeps me full until lunch.

  • +2

    Whatever cereal purchased from Amazon Warehouse has the closest date. Currently this.

  • Another no breakfast person. Large white coffee at 9am, then overnight oats with fruit, yoghurt and peanut butter at noon.

    • Wouldn't a milk based drink qualify as a meal? Especially a large one.

  • +1

    avocado on turkish bread and a latte from the bambino plus

    weekend, bacon and egg burger and a latte……….from the bambino plus.

    • +1

      Wait …your coffee machine makes bacon and egg burgers? Now that's something I could get behind :)

  • +1

    Boiled eggs, fruit toast with lemon curd, pancakes with butter, croissants, coffee, yoghurt with blueberries.
    Anything really. Sometimes it's just a banana.

  • +2

    Coffee. Black. No Sugar.

  • 2 Boiled eggs or sometime Omelette with black coffee ( no carbs, no sugar)

  • +1

    Mukbang

  • winnie red and a black coffee

  • +1

    Man tou with tea

  • Someitmes 1 ramen egg that I prepared in batch of 7 with rice and any yesterday veggies/kimchi. White coffee no sugar. I love muffin with fried egg as well

  • Varies from day to day & time. Sometimes nothing but liquids (water, kombucha, barley/wheat grass, herbal teas), other days leftover main meals, soups, raw egg yolks. Occasionally some cereal puffs (Good Morning Cereals brand) with in season organic fruit/berries, some nuts, organic milk/yoghurt.

    • Intrigued. Why raw egg yolk? Better nutritional value?

      • Mainly taste/mouthfeel preference. Goes down easier. Good to have on an empty stomach. If I have warm broth sometimes I'll add a whole raw egg to it.

        Sourcing good quality eggs/dairy is becoming difficult. There's a lot that goes on behind the scenes as to how the products are produced that most people are unaware of.

          Yeah, I'm sure you'd be wanting fresh etc to eat it that way.
          Isn't it funny how you can be used to a food one way and not another. Give me a fried egg with a runny egg yolk and I'm in heaven but the idea of drinking it just confuses my brain. I know it's the same thing but my brain is telling me it's gross.

            @cookie2: I am a fan of fried eggs too. Cooking can change the properties of foods.

  • +1

    A Scotts $1 pie.

  • +3

    Roti Canai, Nasi Lemak and tea. That's the stuff.

    • Found the Malaysian here…

    • gotta be Teh Tarik - or Masala Chai - commonly shortened/Ozzified to 'chai' except that literally means 'tea' and if you want spiced tea that would be 'masala chai' - although I'm not sure teh tarik typically has any spices added

  • generally a pack of ciggies and some wild turkey

  • +1

    Rolled oats, milk, 90 seconds in the microwave, honey. It's a boutique dish but I don't mind the hassle

  • 2 eggs white omellette sandwiched in brown bread toast + Peri Peri sauce / mushroom on it., Bread is buttered with low cholestrol butter. And some tea.

    Haven't eaten breakfast since i was 14. Took up too much time and I didn't want or need it.

    7 years ago I stopped lunch as well because I still felt full at dinner time and it was annoying me that I couldn't enjoy eating dinner because I was still full from lunch. I Just drink lots of water
    during the day and love eating the meals at night now, makes the effort of cooking them worth it.

    My scenario might be extreme but in general, I think unless you work in a physical role and need then burn the energy, the idea of 3 meals a day is a scam and the reason why people put on weight constantly over years by overeating because they're conditioned to eating 3 meals regardless whether they need or want it, and sitting on chairs all day to not burn that excess off.

  • +4

    I have a boiled egg, a shot of espresso, and a little cry to start the day.

    • +2

      R U ok?

      • +7

        Thanks for the concern. I see where you're coming from but boiled eggs aren't that unhealthy if you don't overdo it.

      • +8

        The tears season the egg :')

        • Renewables seasoning?

    • +1

      Same, minus the boiled egg and shot of espresso.

  • +3

    beef noodle soup, spicy beef noodle soup, broken rice with egg and grilled pork

    • +3

      Phở Bò,Bún Bò Huế,Cơm Tấm, typical Vietnamese meals 🤣🤣🤣

  • Week days: Jordan's oats with milk
    Week ends: Cafe brunch meals

  • generally fried eggs with tobasco or chilli sauce sprinkled liberally across the top. weekends I might add some tomatoes or mushrooms.

    Coffee or juice to drink

  • Sunsol muesli (the plain fruit-free one with nuts) with a chopped banana, couple of tablespoons of lactose free Jalna Greek yoghurt and almond milk (usually Aldi organic). Low sugar and no chicory root fiber to make up for it like a lot of 'low sugar' muesli (my stomach does not like it). Have had this most days for at least 5 years now. Then a handful of nuts when I get to work with an oat milk flat white (find the standard Vitasoy oat milk the best with coffee).

  • I normally rotate either:
    Oats with skim milk, protein, greek low fat yogurt, banana and berries.
    or
    Egg white french toast, turkey bacon and with greek low fat yogurt, banana, beriies and can highly recommend Steeve's sugar free maple syrup!

    Weekends
    Banana/Oats/Protein pancakes again with greek low fat yogurt, berries, steeve's sugar free maple syrup.

    I do weights, hiit sessions and mountain bike rides 5-6 times a week and I think that fasting would make it hard to get enough healthy cals each day…

    • got a recipe that you like for the pancakes?

      • +1

        Similar to other recipes on youtube etc:
        All in a ninja or similar,
        2 whole eggs
        1/2 cup quick oats
        1 scoop (mine is 38grams) whey protein, I use impact whey isolate choc smooth
        1 ripe medium to large banana
        A few drops vanilla essence
        A dash of cinnamon powder
        A dash of skim milk, just go for the consistency of regular pancake mix

        Dont overcook, low to medium heat, lightly golden brown, otherwise too dry.
        Toppings and boom! This is for 1 person btw.

  • +1

    2 weet bix, 2 slices of toast with vegemite and a maccona on work from home days and weekends. On days in the office, i drop the toast.

    Sometimes on sundays i will have something different like 3 crumpets or bacon and eggs and toast.

  • +5

    A single plum, floating in perfume, served in a man's hat.

    • Best answer ever!

    • Number 8 number 8 number 8

  • Up and Go. Every single day.

  • Rice is life 😂😷

  • i guess depends on you usual work.

    if you do a lot of physical stuff like lifting etc in the morning, i think breakfast helps.

  • Pickles for breakfast

  • 2/3 cup of oats with 4/3 cup of water and microwave 2 minutes
    add 1 teaspoon peanut butter, 10g honey, sliced whole banana and 10g vanilla protein powder.
    Every day for 6 months so far

  • +2

    Never eat breakfast tbh, just never in the mood for food in the morning.

  • Weeties or Cornflakes every morning, all my life.

  • +2

    Recently I've been only eating cereals that are high in fibre. All-bran, Aldi's version, etc.

    Best shits of my life.

    • +1

      Thanks, I am sure the whole of Ozbargain was dying to know about your bowel movements..

    • What grade on the Bristol stool chart?

  • Single piece of Vegemite toast and a coffee.

  • Exercise then local shop for a latte, no snack nothing till lunch
    same every day, usually eat breakfast on holiday as a family but it more about finding some nice place to sit and enjoy the view

  • +1

    During the week no food for brekkie, only a couple of black coffees with no sugar. I'm just not hungry at all for the first hours of the day. Been like this since I was a kid. Later I've discovered this is called intermittent fasting and apparently that's what's keeping me fairly skinny now I'm in my 40s lol
    In the weekend I usually have an early lunch (aka brunch).

  • Full English breakfast with black puddin

  • Pieces of sh!t like you

    • +4

      You eat sh!t for breakfast?

  • +1

    1200 cal shake
    500ml milk, mass gainer protein, maltodextrin, fibre supp, creatine.

    On a 5000 cal bulk and drinking calories is easier and faster for me in the morning.

  • Big fat smoothie!

  • Toast, peanut butter.
    Coffee, some form of protein

    Gotta hold those gains somehow

  • Double Espresso, and that's it till at least 11. I can't keep food down for a couple of hours after I wake up, and at that point I may as well just push through until lunch.

  • Currently eating 6 eggs (whites only) for breakfast as following diet program that missus did and was successful at.

  • I buy a bag of quick oats and mix it with a bag of muesli so it goes further. Then when making a bowl, I fill it with 1qtr water and 3qtrs of milk to thin the milk out.

  • bread, butter, strong black coffee and cheese.

  • +2

    Wow, there are some interesting and disturbing eating trends on display in this thread!

  • +1

    Weekdays: 2 pieces of toast. Slide of cheese melted on top. Orange juice.

    Weekends: 2 pieces of toast. 2 fried eggs. Fresh coffee.

  • 2-3 eggs scrambled, sometimes on wholemeal toast. Sometimes omletted with diced red onion, red capsicum, sometimes diced bacon, side of sliced avo.

  • Free fruit, cookies and coffee at the office. Otherwise, nothing if at home. Cost of living too high.
