Hey Hill,

I sometimes like to eat some homemade egg mcmuffins. I toast the english muffins, microwave an egg for about 35 sec in the microwave, add cheese and some lunch meat. Its pretty good, and I stay full for a while yet too. Thats what I like when I'm in a breakfast rut!

 

no hill, you are not alone. I think I have had eggs and toast for breakfast almost everyday since I started working at Haworth a year and a half ago. How's that for a rut! But what can I say, I like eggs and brown toast :-)

 

it's true, everyone has a breakfast rut. I have been eating cheerios for breakfast since I started school this semester. Sometimes I'll mix it up and have toast with peanut butter (and banana if I have any) and some yogurt, but I hate the toaster we have since you have to hold down the handle so the bread will actually toast, and I find that time consuming. I think everyday at Briercrest I had toast with peanut butter and some yogurt. Variety is hard in the morning. Maybe for every season of life there is a breakfast you have. I wonder what I'll have when I'm a wife? Who am I kidding? Probably cereal!

 

Erica, you are going to end up going to the chicken koop and getting eggs and then slaughtering a pig for some bacon..and that is what you will have for breakfast when you are a wife!

 

Girls, Granny hated breakfast because she was always in a rut.. like her whole life! Boppa was so happy with toast, but she wasn't. So you aren't alone in any sense, we all seem to have the problem. You just can't beat toast and peanut butter with jam. Love you, mom

 

I have just been on this naturopathic diet for the past 30 days... so I was eating rice puffs (not rice krispies, they are full of sugar) with rice milk (vanilla flavored) for the past month. Oh sure, I mixed it up once in a while with rice bread, with almond butter, but mostly it was the rice puffs. Man am I glad that's over. Now I still mostly just have toast, but at least if I wanted to I could have something else.

 

Okay, I am a toast girl....currently with Cheez Whiz or Harvarti cheese. Oh, and it's gotta be good bread - Superstore Canadian Harvest is my fave. At the beginning of the school year at a staff meeting, we had to do this dumb activity where we lined up in alphabetical order according to our favorite food. Everybody looked at me like I was crackers when I said mine was "toast". But truly, if there were only one thing left on earth to eat, I would wish it to be toast (with real butter of course....)

 

you sure can't beat a bagel with cream cheese. i think of you all the time when i eat a B with CC, Hills, because i remember how much you loved them. maybe you still do?

 

What a great discussion question!

I've deffinitely been in the toast and pb and honey rut for a while. It's accentuated by the fact that b-fast usually ends up being the only meal I eat at my house... so really that's the only groceries I have to buy... and I make my own bread in a bread maker I found on the side of the road... so yeah... groceries don't cost too much!

 

I definitely get stuck in the breakfast rut! But it's only because I love my breakfast. :) I normally eat 1/2 cup granola and 1/2 cup all-bran buds with with strawberry yogurt and some sort of fruit cut up in there. I loved it the most in the summer when strawberries were in season--it was so great. Now I try bananas which is alright, but not as good. And I try to have a boiled egg with it too...the protein makes me stay full longer.

 

Raisin bran is where it is at. And of course I know who you are.
