    Usually have a bowl of cereal, sometimes have toast. At the weekends, we might have pancakes for brunch or sausage/bacon sandwiches.

    Either in your trusty food processor, or using one of those hand held braun whizzer things that you see them use on ready steady cook... but not a liquidiser because the timing is too hard...

    Ingredients:

    1 large egg
    350ml oil
    1 tablespoon sugar
    1 level teaspoon salt
    1 tablespoon vinegar
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    1/2 teaspoon mustard (powder or made)

    Instructions:

    For the food processor - put everything in except the oil, whizz on high, after 20 secs slowly add the oil. Not too slow or for too long or it breaks and that's the end.

    For the hand held whizzer - put everything in at once, stir to mix and break up egg, then whizz it the same way you'd whip cream, start at the bottom and slowly lift out.

    You can make this faster than it takes to read it.

    A bowl of Special K with a banana chopped up on it, (2) slices of wholemeal toast with butter and a mug of coffee. I love breakfast!
  • Hi All Again

    For tea tonight we're having Home Made Toad In The Hole, Mash Potatoes, Carrots, Cabbage & Onion/Mushroom Gravy...yummy ;)

    Breakfast is normally a bacon & mushroom butty with HP. Also have several milky coffees through the day.

    Oooh, I've been invited to a friend's today - she's making carrot soup. Ds2 doesn't like soup so he's had leftovers from the fridge cos he'll just want to play with friend's Ds2.

    Isn't it nice to go somewhere else and get it made for you. Must go and put some lippy on now (standards, you know, even if just visiting friends :))

    I am not surprised that so many people don't eat breakfast. As I could never when I was working. Getting out the house by 7.30am was a struggle at the best times let alone food at that ungodly hour.

    I am not working at the moment. So breakfast is rather more leisurely at about 8.30ish. I have uncooked porridge with a rather large helping of yoghurt and a dollop of jam to take the take the tartness away from the plain yoghurt.

    lunch is a sandwich an apple and cup of coffee. Been naughty today and had two pkt of mini cheddars that are are really hubbies :o

    Tea will be steamed veg and veggie burger or sausage. With loads of gravy.

    Yummy.

    For some reason I feel hungry today maybe it was the 1.5 mile walk this morning at 7.00am that did it. Had to go and collect some post from the post office enquiry office. Our's opens at 5am :eek: Had to walk back but hubby gave me a lift there.

    Yours
