cheesecake (with frozen berries and whipped cream)
At this point, i’m just happy there’s food
Pho. I have a pot every morning.
A pot o’ pho? Isn’t that a French thing?
apples
Probably not the weirdest by a long shot, but I absolutely love having leftover dinner for breakfast because I’m not a big breakfast food fan.
One of my favorites is if there’s leftover homemade mac and cheese, I’ll take some and heat it. Then I’ll put some on a tortilla and then add ketchup. Roll it up and I will gladly devour it.
When I lived in Chicago, mom-and-pop Mexican stores were a stone’s throw from one another, take your pick. Also, they opened early to cater to laborers.
Real Mexican for breakfast? I would kill to have that back.
The Mexican places here make breakfast chilaquiles with yesterday’s leftover chips!
Do grits count? Grits with as close to an entire stick of hot butter as someone will let me have.
Grits is traditional breakfast foods though? When were you eating them before?
Grits with butter, cheese, and nutritional yeast, yum!
My wife and I don’t eat traditional “American” breakfast at all, it’s always either refried beans, some kind of Indian curry, or protein and fried rice. PBJ is supplemental otherwise.
We love a breakfast burrito with refried beans, potatoes, eggs, onion, cheese, salsa.
Oh man you are a visionary.
I can’t believe I never thought it suitable to just eat cheese cake for breakfast. Or any cake for that matter!
Seems obvious now that it’s been said, but never occurred to me prior seeing this. That’s a bit sad honestly, that I’ve become so reserved and “traditional” with my morning meals.
Edit: well just to answer the actual question so as not to waste space in the thread unnecessarily, the one thing I’d consider a bit more unconventional in my habits is just eating boiled eggs with nothing else. A cup of coffee and some 3 eggs, nothing else. I guess it’s not that strange, but I’ve got some funny looks when people are visiting or for example starting dating with someone, and I happen to do this.
Whenever I’m talking to a little kid and they start trying to joke me, I normally reply with the “oh yeah. Well I can go and eat cake for breakfast or dinner if I want.” That usually shuts them down.
For the confused they are normally related through family or friends. I’m not just going out to the playground to start trash talking a kid. They normally are just being kids and start making jokes.
Cold slice of leftover cheese pizza.
Love toaster pizzas for breakfast of any time really
The best hangover breakfast.
Pickled herring. Or soused herring. Or really, any kind of cold fish.
I love a Greek salad for breakfast. Eating salad as the first meal of the day makes me feel energetic, without the heavy, achy feeling that meat and bread-based foods give me.
Rice. I know it’s common in Asian countries but absolutely not where I’m from.
My grandma used to eat leftover rice with a little milk and sugar for breakfast. Kinda like oatmeal.
Unless it’s Krispie
Whatever leftovers are on hand, but my favorites are noodle dishes like pancit bihon, pho (a normal breakfast but not here in the US), or Singapore curry noodles.
I didn’t think it was weird but when I put lox on my bagel one of my coworkers gagged and asked “ugh how can you eat fish for breakfast?”
Which is rich considering her people invented scrapple.
Nah, your coworker’s weird. That shit slaps.
Hear me out, toasted onion dill rye bread instead of a bagel. Room for more lox, creme cheese so holds together and a better crunch. Also rosemary sourdough bread.
Well, I’m the only person I’ve met that has soylent for breakfast everyday. It’s basically meant for breakfast though so…
Soylent green?
Those breakfast shakes? I had one of those. They are pretty good.
