Food inspiration, or what's for breakfast?

Yup - in the same situation here Nic. Leaving on a vacation tomorrow so the fridge is bare. All perishables have been eaten. Might be cereal and the last bit of yogurt tonight? Hope hubby left me a stray strawberry 🍓 or blueberry 🫐.
Ah Adventurista - I see you’ve got the blue Corelle dishes. I’ve got the older green version. Had it for over 50 years. That stuff doesn’t die! Well, unless you drop the dish on a clay tile floor. Then it shatters into teeny pieces you’ll be finding for years afterward.1 -
Yes, shatterproof, shatter resistant are mis-nomers.
Have wonderful vacations, travel safe!2 -
We had the corelle growing up with the gold/brown flowers around the rims.
We just have the plain white in my household currently, as we did through the kids growing up, because it's alot easier to replace individual pieces.1 -
Breakfast buffet at the hotel. Hope a LOT of walking works off those deadly breakfast pork sausages!1
-
The breakfast sausages made me feel queasy all day. No more of that tomorrow!🤢1

Hopefully walking was good! Where are you? Have fun!1

Cincinnati Ohio. Checking out the town and visiting nephew and family. Lots of interesting Victorian architecture, immigrant cultures, and soooo much cooler than Texas.1

Yup - WKRP! Having a really good time in Cincinnati! Tomorrow’s the last full day. The weather is bliss - low 80s. We’re able to walk around town comfortably, sit at outdoor cafes without retro a crisp.1

Weird day today. Grabbed plain white subway black forest foot-long with "pepper jack" and no sauces or even salt/pepper and definitely without the fried onion topping (but yes to all the rest). No reason to assume that the ~650 Cal entry is incorrect! I did manage to get out of there WITHOUT the potato chips which is a definite win.2

This was breakfast? I’m thinking it’s lunch? Either way sounds tasty and good on you for skipping the chips.1 -

I usually just start the day with coffee.... as I did do today.
Elevensies? Was about 11:45 when I left their store...2 -
Dinner was a grass-fed tenderloin, sauteed mushrooms and half of a twice baked potato (mine was made with cottage cheese and chives, and I could only eat half of it).3

Last night used a tube of Pillsbury crescent rolls in 8x8 pan. 1/2 on bottom, sprayed with Pam for a moisture barrier, other 1/2 of rolls on top.
Like a hot pocket filling, spread about 1 1/2 inch thick layer of mixed chopped chicken, green beans and peas, spaghetti sauce with some paste to thicken, shred parm and mix blend cheese stirred together, placed in pan like pie filling.
Topped with more sauce (think pizza smear) and shred cheese. Baked 45m at 375. Covered foil, removed at 1/2 point 20 mins.

Wait wait wait one.... I sense..... baked goodness?
I also need to track down that tuna bread you gals were talking a while back and give it a try!0 -
Adventurista- how did the bottom later of crescent rolls do? Crispy or soggy? I’ve done casseroles with raw biscuit dough on top which baked fine.
PAV - here’s the tuna bread recipe. It’s Akis Petrizikis and you can view it in English or Greek. Measuring in metric too. He’s got a lot of interesting and super simple recipes. Our friend Dante mentioned using this site for some of his fabulous meals.

Thank you Yooly!1

@Yoolypr nice, inbetween. Liberally sprayed (greased) bottom and sides of the glass baking dish. Laid down the crust, then the trick - spray top of crust to create moisture barrier and prevent to soggyness. I also sprayed both underside and top layer of the top crust for same reason, before doing the sauce smear and shred cheese topping. Did not snag a pic, but was a kitchen sink leftover dish. Turned out well, would make again.
I used the tube of crescent rolls (a pre-made puff pastry of sorts). I think the premade pie crusts would work as well, if they are sprayed for the moisture barrier. It was a pie making trick from gramsie. She did not care for soggy much.2 -
Sounds TRICKSY!
Yooly wants me to watch VIDEOS????!!!!!!
Whew.... ok. At least it doesn't SOUND like it needs a video! so basically nuked canned tuna in egg? Sounds perfectly compatible with my cooking methods!
Thank you!1 -
I made my tuna bread in a glass Pyrex measuring cup. I used water based tuna drained and added teaspoon of olive oil. Don’t skip the seasonings. Or slap some sriracha on the finished bread.2

1egg and 1 white scrambled with diced ham, peppers and onion and some reduced-fat cheese. Also 2 decaf coffees with milk beforehand.
