I want to make DH a really nice hot breakky one day. I can do the normal old bacon and eggs, but was trying to think of something a bit special. He's been sooo lovely and supportive of my hormonal, pregnant-ness and I just want to show him I appreciate his patience when I'm crying over the fact that I want chocolate at 6am (no really!!).
So what's your specialty, what yummo breakky do you make that everyone really raves about??
My DH loves a hot brekky, we try to do it every Sunday!
Some of our favourites are:
Bacon and egg toasted sandwich - I also put in tomato, cheese and mushrooms
Omelette with lots of vegies
Pancakes - some favourite toppings are baked apple with cinnamon and banana with walnuts and golden syrup
Ricotta and spinach pikelets
Toasted croissants with ham, cheese and tomato
Mmmm......
Juicy steak, eggs, toast & buttered mushrooms.
Yummy.
Mmmmmmmm I love pancakes, DH loves the bacon, eggs, tomato, sausage etc big breaky
How nice of you to do that for your DH :)
My DP loves bacon, eggs, tomatos, mushies, toast and a coffee. Oh peace and quiet with no kids on your lap while your eating it is great too ;)
Kellie, as for the choc hun, I think it's time you got yourself a secret stash ;)
English muffins with smoked salmon, cream cheese and dill
Eggs benedict and bacon and chorizo sausages with yummy thick bread
Sweet corn fritters with rocket, avocado and hollondaise sauce, bacon and oven rosted tomatoes *drool*
Personally, I am a bufet girl :redface: The perfect breakfast for me will be something of EVERYTHING!!!
I don't know what your DH likes, but mine is sort-of a grease monkey, so I make him this for supper although he had it once at a diner from the breakfast menu:
You panfry some mushrooms and bacon (chopped) in butter. Then you cut potatoes in little squares and deepfry them in a seperate pot till they are really, really crispy. Then you drain the potato squares and add them to the mushrooms and bacon. Just make sure that there are not to much fluid left from the mushrooms, otherwise the squares are going to go soggy. You just toss that around for like two minutes. Then you put it on two pieces of toast, soft egg on each, cheese on top and round it off with some ground black pepper. That with a cuppa good quality strong black coffee .... yum!!
HTH
:bump:
I know this thread is from a while ago, but since it's Daddy's day tomorrow, I will be making DH a yummo breaky and am looking for some different ideas. Or a delicious spin on the smae old same old???
So, anyone with some more ideas.....
In my single days a group of friends would crash at my place for the night after we had a night of clubbing & i would have them lined up in my kitchen in the P'J's waiting for my toasted croissants & strawberry jam for breaky :dance:
*** Kellie what DID you end up making ?? ... Hope your DH is having a fab DADDY'S DAY :D
this morning i cooked DH rissoles, potato pommes and yummy egg ring ommelette with egg, cheese, bacon, cream, onion and capsicum. was awesome!
Well, amazingly enough, DH said he didn't want a cooked brekky this morning!!! We always have a cooked brekky on Sunday, most often pancakes. He's more concnerned about how we're going to eat a cooked lunch, complete with dessert, and then do the same at dinnertime :rofl:. TBH, he never worries about having to eat too much, he's usually more bothered about whether or not there will be enough......I personally think he's just trying to be kind to me, as I've not been feeling well. Which is lovely, but I'm still gobsmacked that he turned down my offer to cook whatever he wants! To name a few.....
Pancakes (with lots of different toppings on the table, DS favourite)
Waffles
Bacon, eggs, etc etc
Bacon, egg & cheese rolls with hp sauce
French toast (sweet or savoury, we have a few variations)
Blueberry pikelets with maple
Croque Monsieur
Oh I love cooking brekky :D And why haven't I thought of doing savoury toasted croissants at home? Since reading that ALL I can think about is having a ham cheese and tomato one!
Eggs bendict with salmon not bacon and nice crusty bread not muffin and a little pile of baby spinich leaves on the side and maybe some kind of potato cake.
With fresh OJ and a latte.
(no breaky for my DP yet as he's still snoozing in bed ... no doubt dreaming about me :ROFL:)
Brontide ... that just sounds so delish :D
I have not had my fav breaky for 4 years.
We lived in Kew and would go to Georges in Camberwell and have a BIG breakfast.
Mine was always scrambled eggs, bacon, thick toast, sauteed mushrooms, spinach and of course the hash brown. Downed with fresh OJ then followed with a latte - they use to have to roll DH and I out of there.
Now my fav breaky is one I don't have to cook myself :lol:
I made chocolate chip pancakes for DH this morning, yum!
My fave breakfast would be DH's scrambled eggs, hollandaise or persian fetta, english muffins, smoked salmon, salmon roe and sauted spinach. A glass of pine orange and a latte.
If I wanted a fave sweet breakfast it would probably be ginger pancakes with honeycomb butter and maple syrup. And a big mug of irish breakfast or traditional afternoon tea.
OR if I'm feeling healthy... homemade grenola, fresh fruit and honey yoghurt. And white rose tea.
Ohhhh that reminds me...
Another favourite breakfast... Waffles/French Toast/Pancakes, bacon and maple syrup! YUM!!!!!
Oh yummo girls!!! You have all got me drooling and wanting breakky at 745pm!
I ended up making some baked croissants with egg bacon and cheese, mmmmm *drool* it was deeeeelicious! I also had one with just strawberry jam, so simple so yum!
I made an egg and bacon pie for dinner last night which would have been really good for breakky, with mushroom, zucchini and spinnach. That was delish too and DD absolutely luuurved it! She had about as much as I did!
I was going to just go the whole hog and do a mixed grill for DH with lamb chops, snags, bacon, hash browns, grilled tomatoes, buttered mushies, toast, eggs.....but he requested the croissants, so croissants he got!
I have had canadian pancakes, minus the eggs though, not much of a fried egg fan. It is very yummy! The whole sweet and savory thing is what makes it so good!
I'm thinking I have to get back into the habbit of making a cooked breakky every so often now. I stopped when DS was born cause it was just too much for me to handle, but now he's older, I can start again!
Any more ideas people???
Pancakes with banana slices, brown sugar and butter (mega drool). I like my pancakes thin with the filling rolled up inside.
I also love a good bacon and poached egg brekkie with grilled haloumi, pesto sourdough toast, mushrooms and a good homemade tomato relish.
I feel like brekkie now.
I made DH blue scrambled eggs this morning!!!
Ok....what is that??????????:
Oh Rouge, thanks for the reminder!!! I made a fantastic recipe a little awhile ago, little ginger pancakes with homemade honeycomb butter etc and it was DELISH! Must be sure to pull that one out again, thanks :D
Hahaha is just scrambled eggs with blue food colouring in it! :D:
no offence hj but that sounds awful!!! Does your dh like it???
My all time fave breakfast would have to be.............
LEFT OVER PIZZA!!!
Mmmmm...has to be from a proper pizza place though, not ordinary pizza from the chain stores!
:redface::redface::redface:
LOL Crystalwings - well he was a bit shocked at first and not game enough to try them - but than he eventually did and yes he liked it - however didnt eat it all??? Hmmmm - he did say tho it was worse than my red love heart shaped pancakes i made him for valentines day! i think he is a bit worried about what will be served up next - hehehehe
Amen to that sister! Serve me up a bowl of cereal and you're my God for the day ;):
