Today I'm cooking my usual maple sausage and eggs. I plan on making a sandwich out of both of them.

I really like any kind of sausage and eggs but it gets kind of old cooking the same stuff every morning. Anybody know some quick and easy alternatives??

    Absolutely nothing unfortunately :( I woke up too late and I didn't have time to eat anything, so I bought a couple of chicken thighs at the hot-food counter and ate them instead. Currently drinking Mountain Dew and going to eat a couple of sandwiches soon.

    Chicken thighs have got to be the oddest selection of quick breakfast food I've ever heard of.

    It's called cahuamanta; basically a seafood soup. Basically it's manta ray meat with a bunch of other shit.

    Fuck you man I can't decide if that looks good or horrible.

    I hardly ever eat breakfast but when I have time I make pancakes with a cinnamon, apple and brown sugar sauce/syrup.

    It looks like shit but tastes amazing. Here's a description and another pic:
    Cahuamanta is a soup that is unique to the state of Sonora. It was made with turtle in the past, but when turtle meat ended up on the endangered species list, manta ray took its place. The name of this dish is a combination of the old and new.Mirta makes a heavenly soup, amply flavored with natural seafood flavors.As a bonus, the caguamanta comes with aleta(tuna fin), gelatinous and buttery bits thrown in for textural enhancement.Their flavor is mild.

    They are an epic hangover cure as well.

    So is it made with fish stock or what? It seems like it might be a little too...seafood-y for me. :confused:

    I don't know the exact recipe because it tends to vary a lot. Dunno, it's really good, but it's more of a regional recipe though. It's pretty much a street food around these parts.

    Quick breakfast foods...

    Making eggs benedict isn't actually that hard. The hardest part is poaching the eggs. And it's SO good. Try it sometime.

    French toast is easy.

    Homemade oatmeal is good. You can put so many different things in it. Like your dick if you're feeling frisky.

    None of that is much harder or more time consuming than cooking sausage.

    We can has "how to"?
    A how to for that one has been on my to do list for a while, it is a great dish to impress your friends with, and is quite easy once you get the hollandaise method down. It is also easy to come up with variations for, like "Eggs Blackstone" with dry cured bacon and fried tomatoes. So bang up a method if you have the inclination, or I will get to it eventually.

    That looks awesome, do you know of a recipe or even a name for the Mexican tripe and hot pepper soup that is also known as a classic hangover remedy? My favorite hangover breakfast on days off is Pho, a Vietnamese soup consisting of anise scented broth, rice noodles, an a kitchen sink full of various other goodies. I like the Hue style in particular, it is spicy, and should have a big cube of congealed blood on top, if you can get that into you on a weak stomach, the rest of your day is easy.

    Honestly I'm too much of a lazy prick to put together an eggs benedict recipe. I'm sure google has plenty and I'd love to see yours. If I'm bored one day I'll make a how-to on how I do them. I put proscuitto and avocado on mine.

    That looks great and I bet it tastes even better.

    This morning I had pizza - I got one for lunch yesterday at work and left two slices. Couple of minutes in the microwave when I got into the office and I was set for the day.

    C/O, I think I have seen that recipe in one of the books I have - I will have a look for it, it definatly rings a bell.

    Edit: The thing I read was a Turkish dish - tripes boiled and served in their own stock with lemon juice, salt and chilli powder. It was more allude to than a recipe. Used to be a brilliant tripe shop in the city next to me, but as tripe eaters (old people) die, customer base got smaller and it closed. They used to have lots of different tripe. Shame.

    "soup for breakfast, burger for lunch, beer for dinner"

    Yeah, I think you're refering to "menudo".

    Here's a copypasta recipe as I probably couldn't make it even if my life depended on it:
    A large saucepan (see note below)
    1 calf's foot (about 1 to 1 1/2 pounds)
    2 pounds honeycomb tripe
    1 large onion
    3 cloves garlic, peeled
    6 peppercorns
    2 teaspoons salt, or to taste
    4 quarts of water
    A comal or griddle
    3 large chiles anchos
    A spice grinder
    A large chile poblano, peeled or 2 canned, peeled green chiles
    The calf's foot
    1/2 cup canned hominy (1 pound) drained (see note below)
    Salt as necessary
    1 scant teaspoon oregano

    Have the butcher cut the calf's foot into four pieces. Cut the tripe into small squares. Put them into the pan with the rest of the ingredients. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Lower the flame and simmer uncovered for about 2 hours, or until the tripe and foot are just tender but not too soft. Meanwhile, toast the chilies well. Slit them open and remove the seeds and veins from the chile poblano, cut it into strips, and add to the meat while it is cooking. Remove the pieces of calf's foot from the pen, and when they are cool enough to handle, strip off the fleshy parts. Chop them roughly and return them to the pan.

    Add hominy and continue cooking the menudo slowly, still uncovered, for another 2 hours.

    Add salt as necessary. Sprinkle with oregano and serve (see note below).

    This amount is sufficient for 7 or 8 people. It should be served in large, deep bowls with hot tortillas and small dishes of chopped chile serranos, finely chopped onion and wedges of lime for each person to help himself, along with Salsa de Tomate Verde Cruda to be eaten with tortillas.

    It's usually consumed heavily during christmas time and works great those holiday mornings.

    Thats the stuff:hai::hai:, I had it a couple of times back when there was a really authentic Mexican restaurant in our area. Calves foot and hominy should be fun to hunt for! Thanks.

    I had split pea soup with a slice of leftover pizza cut up on top. As well as being tasty, it has given me ripping farts all day, not stinkers, but a 10/10 for quantity.

    I totally missed my breakfast today, just so I could rush into college. When I arrived at college, it appears that I don't have any classes today and so I don't even need to be here :facepalm:

    So, I'm going home shortly and eating the fuck out of some awesome breakfast.

    My default go-to breakfast is ham/bacon and fried eggs on granary toast, with garlic, salt, pepper, basil and oregano. I've got fried eggs down to a fine art.

    I also love dumping a tin of tuna in a hot pan with butter and black pepper, cracking a couple of eggs over it and mixing it up 'til the eggs are cooked, then slapping it into a couple of soft white rolls. Onions are a great addition when I can be bothered.

    I tend to eat breakfast late, like at lunchtime, and after a workout so I like to pack in a lot of protein. Another staple is a lazy omelette, just tip whatever meat and vegetables I fancy into a pan with some seasoning and crack some eggs over it, then smoosh it around 'til cooked. Doesn't look great but it tastes good.

    Today was an unusual one, I had toasted ciabatta bread with Indian lamb (leftover from a buff Sunday roast), cheese, jalapeno hummus and nice crisps. Felt like something different and rooted around in the fridge, basically.
