Miso soup with mixed grains - cooked the day before --added plus a half a sweet potato and a half a banana [ or a small tangerine ] .

Small yellow pepper, may also be called banana pepper. Very mild. Adds a very mild chili taste. No problem to leave out. If you like heat, you could also use a jalapeno chili. (Looks exactly like a Hungarian Yellow Pepper, which is the pepper used for paprika, which is hotter, but harder to find.)

I don't peel potatoes for diced breakfast potatoes. Reds are good, skin and all. (Otherwise potato skins are good for making soup stocks.)
Grated potatoes dry roast nicely with a non-stick pan, no lid to let the moisture escape. Otherwise, bake in oven.

I rarely eat breakfast. Morning food seems to divert my blood flow too much from my brain and momentum. I like to get my day started and engine running before I pile in food. I like the british beans on toast if I had to eat a regular breakfast for what ever reason, I think that starchy combo had something to do with their global determination.

I know you're tired of oats, but that's my favorite breakfast.

Steel cut oats, cooked in the slow cooker overnight, with a bunch of collard greens, steamed.

Yum!

Thanks everyone! I've bought some precut potato hash in the freezer section and have been eating potato with salsa. I think I'm going to try the sweet potato next week... then maybe I'll go back to oats.

Baked or Microwaved sweet potatoes and or rolled oats oatmeal.

also I have made brown rice pudding
2 cups brown rice cooked
put in a deep bowl with 1/2 cup almond milk , 1 tsp vanilla or almond extract , microwave till the milk is absorbed , take out and stir add stevia and 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt and stir., This is sooo good.

I love to make a *BIG* batch of HH tofu scramble http://happyherbivore.com/2008/10/basic-tofu-scramble/ and then heat it up as required in the microwave. I've always preferred savory over sweet in the morning, and this really hits the spot, especially with some tomatoes and tabasco on top.

My favorite breakfast hands down is potato hash with corn, onions and bell peppers and sometimes mushrooms mixed in. I could eat this every day. Unfortunatey I don't like to cook in the mornings, so I usually go with toast or cereal except on the weekends. I have just found out how to make overnight oatmeal for one and I am loving that.

Oatmeal 7 days a week with a little diluted almond milk. Never tire of it .

Brown rice and sliced banana with a little sauce then sprinkled with cinnamon. Sauce is dates blended with water - approx. 2 dates and 1/4 cup water.

I just remembered, when I get tired of oatmeal, I love Mary's recipe for Sweet Potato Beginnings. If you cook your sweet potatoes the night before, you can whip this up quickly in the morning! I sometimes substitute Pumpkin Pie Spice for the Cinnamon.
It's so yummy-good delicious, now I'm craving it!

We enjoy salads for breakfast and potatoes. I also do breakfast beans which are easy because you put them in the crock at night and in the morning they are ready to go. If you do them plain in the morning they can second as a salad at night with additions or soup. This am my in a hurry hubby is getting polenta, it was in a tube in the fridge.

Wings, that sounds yummy! My regular breakfast for the past couple of months is a big kale salad with a cooked lentil and mushroom porridge on top. I add a tablespoon of freshly ground flax seed and a sprinkle of nutritional yeast. At first it felt strange to have a big salad for breakfast, but now I'd feel lost without it.

There are some great breakfast recipes in the new Starch Solution book.

Almost every morning I have oatmeal with cinnamon, and add sliced banana. On the weekends I sometimes cook up some frozen hashbrowns (I like the O'brien kind with onion and peppers). On rare occasions, I will make banana pancakes with whole wheat or oat flour, and use egg replacer. Yum....
