This is a Christmas Day morning tradition. It's my son's favorite!

I never have time for a big breakfast although it's the most important meal of the day, but i make due with what i have time for & good eating habits as follows nothing to heavy or greasy but fulfilling to get me through till lunch without my stomach eating me inside out lol 😆

This meal was satisfying and left me craving it. I love the crispy cheese and the pepperoni cooked in the microwave comes out crunchy and salty like bacon. (L)

I had read Cooking for Geeks, and it was discussing the way to make alterations to recipes, substituting ingredients, and wanted to make oatmeal cookies even healthier, primarily by reducing the sugar. The is was the result of several incremental changes to the basic recipe.

We don't like the sweet versions of granola so I played and tweaked and made my own:-)

I was able to start this, do yoga in my home gym and come back to a delicious breakfast! It frees up cooking time by baking instead! Also, holds well for the next day. Would make tasty muffins with minimal changes.

My picture doesn't do justice for this dish. I will add a better one next time I make.This is a stick with you all day kind of breakfast. Very good. I only used 2 potatoes. I didn't have cheddar cheese, so I substituted mozzarella/provolone.

A giant stuffed breakfast loaf that takes a bit of time but makes for a fantastic brunch showpiece for a crowd and gives plenty of time for mimosas.

You can add other fruits to the oats like small cubes of pineapple, shredded apple or berries.

*To anyone following my recipes---Remember that "debris" I harvested from my pho soup.... delicious, well spiced gelatinous fat and bits of meat. It smelled like a corn beef pot roast a bit. So I thought, potatoe, onion hash, left over brisket, cheese with an egg on top. A great way to make the delicious flavours of my pho be reborn as this breakfast brainstorm. Needed to share. *;-)

Almost every morning for me starts with a healthy bowl of fresh fruit, oats and yogurt. It gives me all the energy I need to start my day and is so tasty I sometimes have it even more than once per day! If you want to make something quick, healthy and very delicious for your morning, then do try this easy recipe. If you don't have all the fruit I used for this bowl, feel free to use whatever you have. Make sure to tell me if you like it by leaving me a comment and I would love to see all your beautiful photos as well.

This is a great recipe for those on the go eaters in the morning or after a good workout! Great protein and energy to tie you over for lunch! :cookie
