Jim says he eats more like 3000 calories a day. Today the vitamin E study nutritionist advised him to eat more protein and calcium and less olive and sesame oil. I think he simply guessed wrong at the amounts he reported eating - 1 oz olive oil, 8 oz rice, 4 oz beans -more like 1/2 oz oil, 16 oz rice, 8 oz beans. And his cholesterol is too low (140 total, similarly wrong for HDL and LDL). She suggested eating cheese.
Eggs
For breakfast Jim cooked the lima beans I had soaked, peeled some cooked potatoes, and fried up radishes, cauliflower, onions, brocolli, carrots with peanuts to put on top. Filling. More left for lunch.
I had a roast beef sandwich for breakfast..with lettuce, tomato, provolone, and wheat bread. Lunch will be greek salad and probably 2 hardboiled eggs.
Breakfast today was Honey Bunchs of Oats with almond slivers with fat free milk. :)
Breakfast was a bagel and cream cheese. With Indian brewed chai earlier in the morning.
turkey on wheat with a coffee
Oatmeal and corn on the cob and yellow cherry tomatoes and grapefruit juice and we left the cooked cabbage and onions for lunch.
I had eggs, tomato, greenpepper, onion, and feta cheese wrapped in a whole wheat lawash. And coffee.
Breakfast was Frosted Mini-Wheats and milk. oooh, exciting! ;) resp:61 That sounds really tasty (minus the green pepper)
Today it was home-made Indian style tea, followed by a whole wheat bagel and cream cheese, another cup of tea (this time, teabag brewed) and a chocolate muffin two hours later. I've been decadent.
turkey sammitz w/coffee
I missed breakfast this morning but had a chicken sandwich and cucumber salad for lunch. That Indian chai tea is good, I bet!
Strawberry yogurt with Grape Nuts mixed in, coffee.
The last meal I cooked was walleye, served with a cold cracked wheat salad and steamed asparagus. I've been playing around with fish lately, trying to figure out what works and what doesn't. My favorite catfish recipe involves a dredge in cajun-style seasoning then a quick bake at 425 degrees. Salmon I like marinated in asian-style seasonings and broiled. Walleye (or other tender white non-oily filets) I've not been so happy with despite trying a number of techniques. So the other night I gave walleye another shot, this time going back to basics. I simply sauted it in a tablespoon each of olive oil and butter. When the fish was done I removed it then added a little fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley to the pan, scraping up the bits, then drizzled it over the fish. Too simple, but it worked. Dinner was 10 minutes, start to serve. Sometimes, that's important.
Pssst, Mary, this is the breakfast item, but your dinner sounds yummy and I really don't like fish.
That sounds like a delicious and easy recipe - I should try it (though I'm not sure I know what a walley looks like) Skipped breakfast and am having a Subway sandwich for lunch. Also kipped the Indian chai tea as we've just moved (yesterday) and I neglected to make sure we had basic breakfast items on hand :/
I had pancakes and sausage links for breakfast today. I have this same breakfast almost every Monday.
I wish I had the time to make a breakfast like that. Well I would if I woke up earlier instead of 30 minutes before the time I'm supposed to be in at work.
Haw. I didnt make that breakfast. We have a cafeteria at work that serves breakfast. I always eat breakfast here at work. It occurred to me recently that I have always worked someplace where I could eat breakfast so I almost never eat breakfast at home except on weekends.
My cafeteria serves up bagels and cream cheese. I'm usually way too late for their breakfast.
Jim usually makes oatmeal for breakfast. It has gotten pretty boring since berry season ended. Today he shook some apples out of a tree.
(and I always thought you supported non-violence.)
Ack, sorry about #67. I thought I was in another item. In a few minutes I'll be poaching eggs and serving 'em with English muffins and a cup of berries. That's a five minute breakfast.
How do you poach. In swirling hot h2o?
No, I'm too sleepy at breakfast to try to deal with free-swimming egg whites. I have this little three-compartment tray thingie that sits in a small, covered pan of simmering water. Like this, but for only three eggs: http://tinyurl.com/sxbrh
Three easy monthly payments of $4.95? And when you're not poaching, you could serve condiments.
And here you had me all jacked thinking you were sincerely interested. It's like, no prom for me, again.
(sorry)
Here's an interesting breakfast recipe that I just came across [from the cdc website mentioned in 0 that I'm finally checking out]: Apple Sausage 1. Mix one large finely chopped apple with a pound of lean ground turkey or chicken. 2. Season with sage and rosemary and shape into breakfast sausage patties. 3. Cook in skillet over medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes on each side until meat reaches an internal temperature of 165 F.
I do a version of that for a hearty camping breakfast. Leave the apples out of the sausage mix. Brown the sausage, and then saute apple slices with it for the last 10 minutes or so.
That sounds yummy
Breakfast these past few days has been blueberry muffin with tea
Breakfast for me is usually juice, a banana, and either a bowl of cereal or a couple of Clif bars. We just picked up a 1.5-quart slow cooker to use for making overnight steel-cut oats, but haven't used it yet.
a suggestion on the overnight oats. I find putting the oats and water in a small pyrex custard cup gives me a better texture. You might try stacking them if they won't fit comfortably side-by-side.
I've recently gotten back into eating oatmeal again. My dad gave me some blueberries today-so I'll be adding them to my next several bowls of the oatmeal. :-) And am also going through some clementines, too. [other than this stuff, I haven't been eating very healthy lately and I'm really beginning to feel it.]
A great photo-series of people and their breakfast. http://jonhuck.com/breakfast/index.htm
I love that! I just wish they had names for what some of them are eating.
For whatever reason, a few of the photos made me laugh. :-) There's a number of them I'd love to try but a few, well, let's just say that they don't look at all appetizing and thus, I'd pass on breakfast. I wonder how many of these breaksfasts were on weekdays and how many were on the weekend? And thus, how much of a difference would there be in what these people would've had? Cool website and photos!
