Is this weird?

Last night I made scallops on pasta with a light cream sauce and peas. It was delish, and I only ate about half of it. It's 9am here and I'm craving it for breakfast. Is that weird to eat something like this for breakfast? Does anyone else eat non traditional food for breakfast? When I was in Thailand I ate soup every morning and it was the bomb.

There's nothing special about any food that requires you to eat it only at certain times of the day. Eat what you want, when you want it, within your goals.16

It's only weird if you make it weird.25

No it’s not weird. One of my favorite breakfasts is leftover dinner. If I eat leftovers for breakfast, I usually eat a lighter dinner, like what I would normally eat for breakfast. It doesn’t matter when you eat, or what you eat, just how many calories total in a day. Enjoy!7

My favorite is breakfast for dinner, so why not dinner for breakfast9

I eat whatever I feel like for breakfast. This morning I had leftover chilli from a couple of nights ago because it's a cold and wet and dreary morning here.12

I don't think it is weird. I eat whatever I want in the morning as I am not particularly a fan of 'traditional' breakfast food.5

Leftovers make the best breakfast.7

It sounds delicious. Eat it whenever you want. I’m one of those people who grabs cold pizza for breakfast sometimes. 🍕11

No it's not weird but I'm a freak and have to eat "breakfast food" for breakfast5

I regularly have stouffer's macaroni and cheese at work for breakfast - I get a few odd looks, but it is delicious and filling!6

Leftover pizza the morning after is da bomb.8

When I worked as a chef I ate anything and everything for breakfast. I would go in at 6am and cook myself a cheeseburger and fries. I have had leftover dinners for breakfast. No, you are not weird at all.5

Everybody and everything is weird if you think about it long enough. Enjoy your pasta!8

While visiting Japan I ate sushi at the tsukiji fish market at around 7 am. I thought it would be weird but it turned out to be amazing!! Pho for breakfast in Vietnam. I think the concept of breakfast food in America is mostly just corporate advertising.
For cereals, I would agree. But culturally, there are breakfast foods that don't have anything to do with advertising and different cultures have different breakfast traditions. Pho is a common breakfast food in Vietnam for example...my Vietnamese friends think it's funny that we eat it for lunch or dinner as Americans. Biscuits and gravy or ham and grits are common breakfast traditions in the southern U.S. Eggs, bacon, and potatoes have a long tradition as breakfast food in the U.S. When I was in Honduras, baleadas is a traditional breakfast...flour tortilla with mashed fried beans, cabbage, and salty cheese thrown on a grill. Also, fried chicken and a boiled egg was pretty common.2 -

I so agree! When in Bangkok, the hotel had a huge breakfast buffet and had "areas" such as "Indian", "American", etc. In the American section it was mostly pancakes, waffles and pastries. This is what other cultures think we eat every day.2 -
As a 3rd shift worker who ate at dinner restaurants for breakfast for many years, I've come to tell you that the "food police" won't ticket you for that.5

Breakfast for dinner is a hallowed tradition in my house.3

You could send it to me, I'll test it and get back to you if it's weird or not.3
