Good morning! We're getting into the swing of things this morning with a bowl of yogurt and a mug of chai tea, though we're craving steel-cut oats after seeing the image above. What did you have for breakfast today?

Actually, Irish oatmeal would be particularly appropriate with St. Patrick's Day tomorrow. In the post related to the image above, the guys over at the Bitten Word suggest a technique for soaking oats overnight to shorten the cooking time in the morning.
Perhaps we'll get up the gumption to try that tonight so we can celebrate St. Patty's day in style!

Yogurt with fruit.
About the steel cut oats, they reheat really well unlike rolled oat oatmeal. My husband and I often make a big batch on the weekend and then reheat it by the bowlful on weekday mornings.

I took the red eye home and went directly to the office. I have coffee and a croissant from the bakery on the corner.

Breakfast is for suckers!
I eat leftovers from dinner if I eat anything.

Some turkey bacon, eggs scrambled with tomato and spinach, and a couple of pieces of toast. And a latte.
I don't understand how people can skip breakfast. If I skip it then by about 10 I'm ravenous and grouchy!

Custard filled doughnut with chocolate on top and a diet coke. Not exactly the breakfast of champions but a bribe was in order to get myself to work this sticky, grey morning.

My favorite quick breakfast, Ezekiel almond cereal (http://tinyurl.com/43aax9) with soymilk and raisins. It's not cheap, but I'm addicted to it.
Recently, I've been making rye flakes and/or spelt flakes just like oatmeal and loving it. It's like a much heartier oatmeal.

We mix equal parts steel cut oatmeal and 4-grain plus flax cereal and freeze it in ice cube trays. This mixture bumps up the fiber in the cereal. It freezes well. Takes a minute in the microwave.
Ate it with half a banana and some whole milk yogurt.
And lots of coffee. YUM.

Trader Joe's Whole Milk Vanilla Bean yogurt (definitely worth it) with blueberries from Chile (which I've never had before and are really not as good as local in season ones).
I love this thread and all the good ideas here for breakfasts.

Oatmeal porridge with chocolate flavoured protein powder, some cinnamon and Splenda.
The proteins make me feel full for longer, and lowers the GI a bit. And it tastes kind of like Dumle chocolates from Fazer. :)
