| Split pea and Veggie Fried Rice I have never been a traditional breakfast person. Eggs never appealed to me. Sweetly sick cereals and pancakes covered in syrup turned my stomach, so I developed a habit of eating leftovers. This morning I had cooked brown rice and split pea soup, so I sauted a zucchini , onion, garlic along with 1/2 cup cold rice and 1/2 cup split pea soup. I topped it with 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds. Of course, I doused it in siracha because I'm crazy addicted to spice This totally hit the spot and provided me with a powerhouse of nutrition. I am feeling somewhat burnt out by cooking right now.. so the next several days will be full of simple food. Do you have any unusual breakfast favorites? |

Savory breakfasts are a nice change of pace. Sometimes I do savory steel-cut oats, with soy sauce, scallions, and sesame seeds.
ReplyDeleteI love Kimchi wrapped in Nori in the morning. My husband thinks I'm crazy! hahaha
ReplyDeleteHannah, I really need to try savory oats... I've heard several people talk about them!
ReplyDeleteGF Gidget.. that sounds delicious!
I know you will be so surprised to hear it, given the name of my blog, but I liked miso soup for breakfast. I add diced tofu and wakame for extra nutrition and tastiness. I never get bored of it and it's the only thing I'm always happy to eat in the morning. I can see kimchi wrapped in nori for breakfast though--that sounds great!
ReplyDeleteI love leftovers for breakfast too!

I do love a good breakfast but rarely eat one. This looks great though! Nothing wrong with leftovers! :)
ReplyDeleteI eat leftovers for breakfast too. But probably the thing that really gets people about my breakfasts is that I often put sauerkraut in my green smoothies.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a fantastic breakfast.
I am the opposite, I can't take anything too savory in the morning.
ReplyDeleteRose, that is interesting about kraut in the smoothie. I'd never do it though!
Simple food is sounding good to me too.
i'm burned out here too, Melody - i think we all are. ah ha ha! i'm not a sweet breakfast kinda gal either and i was also never one for eggs. ick. your brown rice 'n split pea soup stir fry looks deeelicious - i love this idea and might have to give it a whirl. breakfasts i usually enjoy: salads with chickpeas, collard wraps, polenta, and hummus sammies. :)
ReplyDeleteI definitely have a sweet tooth in the morning, and love my toast. However, every once in a while, I dive into a big bowl of leftover pad Thai for breakfast! :)
ReplyDeleteHey Mel ... this looks great! Yep, I have some weird tastes sometimes ... I LOVE salads for breakfast.
ReplyDeleteI usually love to eat soups and stews for breakfast.
ReplyDeleteI love miso soup for breakfast too. I have a sensitive stomach and I have noticed that if I eat something soupy it usually doesn't give me "the pain" that I get with regular breakfast meals. On the weekends though, I love to do breakfast tacos with soyrizo and black beans.
