What's Everybodys Favorite Healthy Breakfast?

During the work week, 2 multigrain waffles with a gob of natural peanut butter. It is easy to eat in the car on the way to work with 16oz of water.

Weekends, I will eat supper left overs for breakfast or a cheese and veggie omelet between whole wheat toast. I like turkey bacon and pork bacon but it stinks up the house for too long.

My favourite is a breakfast strata I make the night before with breakfast sausage or soy crumbles, homemade hash browns or toasted bread crumbs, dijon mustard, eggs, sometimes sour cream, milk, red peppers and onions, and cheddar cheese.
 
really? how does that work?

ive read about it before but never had the guts... im currently revising my lifestyle and know it would be excellent protein intake.

how dangerous are 'raw' eggs?

The avidin in the egg white (a type of protein) binds with the biotin in the egg yolk, deactivating it from use in your body. There is enough avidin in the egg white to strip other sources of biotin in the bloodstream from use as well so eating raw eggs can result in a biotin deficiency. Biotin is an essential nutrient, involved in skin/hair/heart health.

Much better pasteurizing the eggs which deactivates most of the biotin. You'd be even better eating the yolk raw (which is delicious and an excellent source of fat, protein, vitamins/minerals) and then scrambling the whites to make the proteins in them more bioavailable.
 
So a few days ago I made this awesome tomato chicken soup with broccoli, shallots, garlic, roasted carrots, etc. Then yesterday my boyfriend took the leftover soup and stir fried it with some beef and we ate that over rice...

THEN this morning, I took the leftovers from the soup/meat stir fry and made an omelet with it. The soup went through three different transitions and I swear it got more flavorful every time. Best... omelet... ever. NOMNOMNOM.

the only downside was that I was smelling it when I was sleeping and it made me very very hungry :(

little hungry boy needs foods...and lovins :D
