Breakfast

So I think the one meal that I fear the most is breakfast. I need something quick and easy. What do you gals do for breakfast?

I made these last week & plan on making another batch this weekend.

I eat two (reheated in the microwave) with a half of a baked sweet potato (I keep several baked in the fridge at all times). Works like a charm!0 -
Have you found that your egg muffins come out tasting kind of fishy? I have had that happen more than once, and can't figure out the cause. It's not so fishy that we can't eat them, but there's a definite sort of fish taste. Weird, huh?
My go-to breakfast has been eggs cooked with some kind of leftover meat thrown in, and/or veggies like fresh spinach or frozen peppers/onions mix. I'm getting pretty tired of eggs, truth be told, but our leftovers are saved for lunches, so there's been little other choice. I need to start getting more creative!0 -
Fishy? Not that I recall. Do you add any dry seasoning to them? I have a shaker with some homemade taco seasoning that I throw in there & I also shake some red pepper flakes on top like "sprinkles. I've got enough heat going on that it would burn off any fishy taste LOL!!
Breakfast is ready!

I typically fry some eggs, sometimes with meat and usually half an avocado.0

I've tried a number of variations on the egg muffin, so have used a variety of seasonings in the past. I've always (pre-W30) sprayed the muffin tin with non-stick spray, though, and wonder if that's the cause. I'll try again with paper liners and see if that makes a difference!

I have one of those air pumps that I put olive oil in. The eggs still stuck just a little. I think next time I will use paper liners but still spray them a little.0

I've definitely experienced the fishy taste. I find canola oil gives it that taste. Sticking with olive oil (or coconut oil - which is a little tougher since it doesn't spray) would likely be your best best.0 -
I found spray coconut oil at a local harvest store, it was expensive but now I won't use Pam and whatever chemicals come with it. I've used olive oil spray in the past as well.
The coconut oil spray brand is Spectrum.0 -

This is what I usually do too. Today I had some left over veggies I needed to use up (mushrooms, onion and zucchini) so I diced them up really small and cut up some chicken sausage and made a hash with 2 fried eggs. Delicious! I'm doing it the rest of the week now!0 -
I made the breakfast muffins today using paper liners, and the fishy taste wasn't nearly as noticeable, so yay! I think because I half-expect them to taste fishy by this point, I did sense a twinge of fish, but that very well could have been my imagination. One thing I found funny - the muffins bubbled up in such a way that there was a big air bubble under each muffin, so it's like the bottom half of the muffin is entirely missing! How funny. 0

I made a giant breakfast casserole with broccoli, onions, eggs and dill and then portioned them out. Is pretty good
Brown some onions and soften the broccoli in coconut oil, then dump them in the casserole dish, whisk a dozen eggs and pour it over - add some dill and whatever other seasonings. Bake for 40 mins or so at 350.
Original recipe had asparagus instead of broccoli, but i bought a ton of broccoli for the week so i just used that.0
