I just had to share my delicious breakfast with you. I am still thinking about how good it was, and I ate it hours ago. I might have to make it for lunch too.
Since I’m so obsessed with mushrooms now, I sauteed a handful of mushrooms, then mixed in four egg whites and a ton of fresh basil. On the side, I had a leftover piece of grilled herb bread from our dinner party last night.
And… I had to eat it with this giant three-prong serving fork. It’s literally bigger than my forearm.
We are completely out of utensils! No forks, spoons, knives – and we have tons of them. The majority are in the dishwasher and the others are dirty in the sink. And I was too lazy to wash one of those. At least I wasn’t too lazy to make breakfast.
What did you have for breakfast today?





I’m Jessica and this is where I share my stuff. You will find a balance of healthy recipes, comfort food and indulgent desserts.
That scramble sounds awesome – love the use of basil.

Buttered toast… simple but I love it. All week I’ve had a peanut butter sandwich, Greek yogurt, and 2 pieces of fruit. Tell you what, I didn’t even THINK about lunch for hours and hours!

That looks delicious – I had chocolate sweet potato oatmeal.

Oh my geeezus. That sounds amazing, chocolate and sweet potato? Just add some coconut and peanut butter and maybe a banana and it’s heaven. Post a recipe soon? :) plus i’m not a big mushroom fan but this breakfast looks delish!

I HATE when all of my utensils are dirty. Usually I just eat with a plastic one when that happens. Yeah, I’m classy. ;-)

That looks delish – might be the secret to getting me to like mushrooms. I’m visiting my parents so I had oatmeal with walnuts and cranberries, which is a treat since I’m too cheap to buy walnuts OR cranberries (at the same time at least) when fending for myself. Plus, humdrum food tastes better at home.

That mushroom scramble looks like heaven (a vitamin D enriched heaven)
I had lemon blueberry vegan french toast. DE-vine

Yum! That looks great. I’ve been craving mushrooms lately :) I hate running out of cutlery too! We specifically went to the second hand store to get spares just in case. They’re aren’t pretty but better than having to wash a spoon or fork when your food is already made! Oh, and I had a green smoothie. They usually don’t fill me up till lunch but I’m sick today :(

I had oatmeal made with vanilla almond breeze, then topped with chocolate chips, white chocolate PB, coconut and pineapple. Lunch was some eggs!

Haha I love the huge fork! Too funny.

I haven’t had a savory breakfast in forever…this looks delicious. I love big hunks of bread for breakfast.

Egg over medium, hash browns and a whole wheat English muffin at our favorite local breakfast joint!

I couldn’t have a huge breakfast this morning because I went to the gym at 9am. So I ate a whole wheat tortilla stuffed with peanut butter, peach jam and ground flaxseed, with a banana on the side!

So far, two chocolate chip cookies I made last night.

Breakfast? At 6am I had popcorn with nooch, choc chips, coconut oil, a special K bar, some edamame dipped in hot mustard, and then I went to bed :)

I tried to make these. To say they “fell short” is an understatement, they rose only to completely sink once flipped :(

I had pumpkin oats! I have been on a huge mushroom kick lately too…sauteed mushrooms on a baked potato with massive amounts of hummus…totally hits the spot!

Shrooms will be in my dinner tonight. Egg whites sounds pretty good, too, haha. Breakfast for dinner?

I love mushrooms. I could eat them in anything.

Your blog always makes me drool!! Glad I’m not the only lazy girl around here. ;)

If I liked mushrooms, that might look good. Put in peppers and onions and I’m there!
I had a bowl of oatmeal with strawberries, granola, coconut and chocolate chips. Then my roommate offered some scrambled eggs mixed with whipped cream cheese; I had a bit of that too. ;-)
Reply
That pretty much looks amazing! I had pancakes topped with sunflower butter, bananas, blueberries and coconut cream. It was really, really good! Might have to try this next time I’m craving a savory breakfast, I love the addition of basil!!

A piece of cake from Bethel Bakery – totally amazing and soooo worth the sugar coma afterward!

I’m in the Eatin’ Breakfast With a Serving Utensil Club too. I’m also in the Eatin’ Breakfast With a Toddler Spoon Club. Not today, though. It tends to happen after I’ve been decorating a cake and I used every spoon to mix various colors of frosting.
Today’s breakfast was Kashi Honey Sunshine cereal. And then I went out and stood in the rain waiting to get into a mom-to-mom sale. Honey sunshine, my ass.

You’re gonna have to stop that! You’re making me *want* to like mushrooms, but I just can’t go there. They’re squishy. Shudder…

haha. I love it. Sometimes we run out of clean bowls and I will use a huge salad bowl for my cereal. I feel like a kid again!

I’m not crazy over egg whites, but in this scramble I think I would be willing to give them a try. It looks like a breakfast for champions if you ask me!!

Oooh, this is messing with my mind. In the photo, that seems like a tiny, tiny fork to me. Oooooh.

You are brave! I am scared of savory oats.

I wish I liked mushrooms, because that looks really delicious. I had oatmeal for breakfast and slurped it down in 30 seconds. It was not glamorous.

I had a Luna protein bar and coffee.

That fork made me laugh out loud! YOU make me laugh out loud! Thanks for that! :)

We had overnight blueberry almond French toast and an overnight casserole with shredded potatoes, cheddar cheese, eggs, green and red pepper, and onion. YUMMY!

Oatmeal with peanut butter, egg, and honey mixed in. This gives me my protein fix. And I love the creaminess the peanut butter adds.

I’ve been there before..oh wait.. right about now.. the dishwasher is full, and I have dishes in the skink waiting for the dishwasher to finish because… my hands are so dry from washing dishes…. I need gloves… I’ve never been a glove wearer.. but I must..
That bread there looks mighty delish..

I am eating it now… oatmeal and hot cocoa! :)

Wish I liked mushrooms, maybe we should reconcile our differences.

I invite you try my favorite Spanish breakfast! (which I had yesterday, today and tomorrow):
Grate a tomato (no skin) in a small bowl, add a spurt of good Spanish olive oil (HAS to be Spanish), add some oregano and salt.
Then, toast a couple of slices of bread and scratch a clove of garlic on them. With a spoon spread the tomato mix on top… mmmmmmm
So easy and so tasty.
You will thank me for that.
I’m personally obsesed with garlic so I actually grate half a clove (or more…) and add it to the mix… That’s up to you :)
¡Que aproveche! ^_^ and wish you a beautiful day!

That looks fantastic I love mushroons I also mix in some extra spinach with my mushrooms and eggwhites, wild mushrooms with some good dried white whie.

It’s not fair that you’re making me want buttery garlic bread or something similar right now… okay well it is almost lunch so I guess that’s okay. You’re forgiven ;)

I love when I have leftovers good enough to build breakfast around. I was ambitious this morning – homemade scones and tea with milk. And, no, I am not English. Just felt like eating elegantly today! For no good reason. :)
Reply
i ate my usual breakfast this morning; whole wheat english muffin, natural peanut butter (but crunchy! something new for me) topped with a banana.
the egg whites and mushrooms is more like dinner for me, especially with the garlic bread. p.s. isn’t breakfast for dinner the best?
Reply
Awesome! I like it – mushrooms are so good!

…and a vegetable. Well I guess fungi technically, I bet that what allows you to eat them, the technicality. ;)
