Re: Breakfast ideas, please

[Guest guest]

Helena:

I am pretty much grain free too, but I do eat eggs like they're going

out of style...

Ideas:

-Sausage, premade and frozen into patties

-Smoothie: banana, frozen berries, kefir or yogurt, coconut milk, coconut oil

-Nut-based " grain " ola: soak almonds and other nuts, dehydrate, add

dried coconut and fruits, and a bit of sweetener. Eat like cereal

with milk or coconut milk.

-Bone broth mixed with coconut milk (it's really delicious!)

-Pancakes make from mashed banana or sweet potato. Eat with butter or

coconut oil

-hash browns cooked in lots of fat with kim chee and creme fraiche on top

Just sausage, bacon or leftover meat usually. Sometimes hash browns with or

hash made with potatoes and leftover meat. Sometimes eggs don't sit right

with me recently. Try to eat no carbs until after 5.

We've got a group you might be interested in, GFCFNN (gluten-free,

casein-free, ) with members that have various food

intolerances and allergies.

GFCFNN/

I don't do gluten grains and I'm avoiding eggs right now, and I often

do a meat and veggie stir fry for breakfast. I also do sauteed plain

or floured (tapioca or rice flour) pieces of meat and kimchi or other

veggie on the side. I've also done meatballs (where I add a few

organs, but not enough to taste them). Recently, I've been making up

fish cakes and freezing, then just pulling one out and sauteeing it.

Leftover beef stew is good, too. I ususally have a coconut milk

smoothie with my breakfast.

I've been taking a hint from the Asians ... a chunk of fish

is often breakfast (well, they have rice with it too, or a bowl

of miso, but like Wanita I don't do starches til the evening). A bit

of protein in the morning seems to make my day go better,

plus I take pills and need something go go down with them.

Fish is the best because it " wakes you up " . The amino acids

in fish help your brain, and so do the oils if it's a fatty fish.

So smoked salmon is ideal! Turkey, OTOH, isn't so good

because the tryptophan can make you sleepy.

A bit of herring or broiled fish was also traditional in many

places in Europe, and Queen is said to have started

her day with cold beef and a bowl of beer. Grapefruit

is nice too.

Have had a tin of mackerel few times for breakfast. Mixed with nut or rice

flour (there's the Asian) could be a fried cake.

I like kippered herring with spicy mustard and kimchi on the side -

anytime of day is fine.

Although I love miso soup for breakfast, but that and all these ideas about

fish and salted foods for breakfast have got to sound absolutely hopelessly

depressing if you're used to cereal and sweet pick-me-up type foods --

especially if you want to eat before you've woken up all the way as I do.

Get me food! Looking a fish in the eye, even a smoked one, first thing in

the morning can be a bit daunting I admit..

So actually, something I've come to look forward to first thing in the

morning when my digestion is still waking up is this:

I put an apple in the oven the night before -- on the lowest setting. It's

so yummy warm and sweet when I wake up. I don't eat the skin and the pectins

get cooked out of it (I think?) Anyway, the baked apple with coconut oil or

butter drizzled on top and a handful of soaked almonds makes for a meal that

is not only on the sweet side but keeps me from being hungry until 11am or

so when I have my Big Meal. My digestion is up and running good by that

time.

######## I know what you mean - I used to love a bowl of cereal for

breakfast during the summer. OTOH, I love yogurt with fruit too...

Being European, we're used to eating sandwiches for breakfast so I

still do that a couple of times a week: whole rye bread, raw butter,

raw cheese, fish or sausage, eggs, etc. I try to eat more protein

than bread though.

####### Sounds yummy !!! I've been eating soaked cooked organic

ish oatmeal into which I've melted some raw butter and/or CO - I

add raw cream or maple syrup or coconut flakes or fruit. It keeps me

satisfied plus oatmeal supposedly helps lactation (I'm still

breastfeeding my 8.5 month old).

Thought I'd share,

I like making porridge out of leftover rice (white or brown). Can be done with

milk or coconut milk. I add banana, sultanas, nutmeg, cinnamon and a bit of

maple syrup. Yum

Seconded. My kids love this.
