When you don't do cereal...

TrinMama · 04-06-2008, 05:23 PM

what do you do? I can't imagine having pancakes and eggs most of the time. LOL. I'm getting tired of cereal in our house...at least, so much of it.

I hate cereal. Pretty much every day I drink a Carnation Instant Breakfast, have for the past 18 yrs.

Sometimes I have microwavable sausages, smoothies, yogurt smoothie drinks, french toast, oatmeal, cream of wheat, toaster pastries, cinnamon rolls, etc. But mostly it's Instant Breakfast.

HTH!

we eat eggs, french toast, pb&j, homemade protein shakes, bagels or granola/clif bars most days

ranade3 · 04-06-2008, 05:32 PM

Dd1 eats pb&j, dd2 eats oatmeal, I eat a breakfast bar. We are boring, we eat the same thing for breakfast almost every day, just not cereal

euromom · 04-06-2008, 05:41 PM

breakfastbars, oatmeal, eggs if there's time.

DS has a milk, a banana, and either toast with jelly & coconut oil or a bagel with cream cheese and coconut oil. And a vitamin.

I eat an egg cooked in the microwave on toast w/ coconut oil & cheese. And a vitamin. And coffee.

We keep cereal around for finger food snacks - but only DH eats cereal for breakfast.

We are big fruit on the go breakfast people...apples/banana's/grapes/strawberries/oranges...whatever is here.

The twins really love oatmeal and have that 4 or 5 times a week.

On the weekends I will make eggs/toast/bacon b/c dh likes it.

I buy cereal like Cheerio's or checks squares but it gets eatin as a snack usually.

Bonnie · 04-06-2008, 06:01 PM

I do an apple (wedged) with peanut butter frequently. Or pb on ww Ritz. Or an egg with broccoli and turkey bacon and shredded cheese. All depends on how much I feel like exerting myself.

Or granola on vanilla yogurt.

Soliloquy · 04-06-2008, 06:05 PM

The only cold cereal we eat is Ezekial 4:9 cereal and it's very expensive so we only buy it when it's on sale.

For breakfast we have steel cut oatmeal, eggs, kefir, pancakes, waffles, fresh veggie juice, toast w/ peanut butter, beef bacon, fruit, cheese . . .

I'm not much of a breakfast person, personally. A big glass of kefir is often all I want. On weekends we make a big breakfast sometimes and then skip lunch.
