Ask HN: So, what'd you have for breakfast today?
There seems to be a lot of nutrition-speak going around here, so I thought I'd ask the question. (question taken from etcetera in #startups)
- tomh- 16y agoSandwich with chocolate sprinkles (Boterham met hagelslag)
- speek 16y agoI had the most amazing breakfast burrito (eggs, chorizo, veggies, guac, beans all wrapped in a wheat tortilla) and green tea after I came back from the gym. Didn't know that Starbucks makes 30oz drinks now.
- joe_bleau 16y agoPiece of white bread toast with grape jelly, three or four small bites of a sausage patty (I prefer the edge), and a glass of milk. Yum!
- AN447 16y agoCarrot/Apple smoothie (home made) + porridge (with blueberries)
- MaysonL 16y agoAs usual before noon, nothing but a couple cups of black coffee.
- pedoh 16y agoGranola with raw milk, but boy does that breakfast burrito speek had sound good!
- jbgoddard 16y ago1/4 cup greek yogurt with frozen blueberries and ground flaxseed.
- papa 16y agoGreek Yogurt is awesome (Fage and Chobani are the two brands I've most frequently come across). I enjoy mixing any of the following: granola, strawberries, walnuts, almonds, honey, raisins. And if you want to mix things up wrt to your yogurt viscosity, try the soupier "Australian-style" yogurt from Wallaby. It's a nice contrast to the thick Greek-style yogurt.
- briandu 16y agoA bunch of fruit (apple, peach, grapes, blueberries, strawberries) and a half a bowl of muselix cereal.
- imp 16y agoScrambled eggs and cheese. Glass of milk.
- kevinherron 16y agoGranola bar + glass of water before bike ride, blueberry bagel (plain) afterwards. Out of bananas or I'd have had one with the bagel.
- wnoise 16y agoLeftover baked chicken with Parmesan, baked potato, and blueberry muffins. Jasmine green tea.
- mbenjaminsmith 16y agoPot of coffee and a cigarette.
- bmelton 16y agoI know that 'me too' statements aren't generally accepted on HN, so I feel like I'm unnecessarily expounding on the notion, but that's basically what I had today, yesterday, the day before, etc. While I'd love to kick the cigarette vice, I feel like it's my soul that has the coffee addiction. I could take or leave the caffeine even (maybe), but the taste of coffee is simply irreplaceable on all but the hottest of mornings.
- mian2zi3 16y agoMy morning routine is pretty standard, today was no different: cup of coffee, hour and a half of yoga, bowl of steel cut oatmeal with fruit and nuts (today: apples and almonds) and a splash of milk. Unbeatable.
- limedaring 16y agoToday wasn't normal — had a medium latte and an apple dessert thingy at a coffee shop. Normally though, my favorite thing for breakfast is super healthy and filling: - Quickly fry two pieces of turkey bacon - Microwave some frozen spinach, drain. - Combine cut up bacon and spinach in a bowl, add an egg, a healthy glug of egg whites (mine come in a carton), splash of milk, herbs, salt, pepper, and miscellaneous veggies from the fridge. - Scramble, top with some shredded cheddar, enjoy. Full of protein and healthy veggies, super tasty, very enjoyable.
- ebertx 16y agoTwinkies and Mt. Dew :(
- wtracy 16y agoSimilar here: A mysterious pastry from the vending machine, though I actually drank water with it.
- bobf 16y agoCinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese, and a sugar free Redbull.
- corysama 16y agoI make overkill health food smoothies for breakfast. A cup of soymilk, a random fruit, veggie powder, and 1 tablespoon each of lethicin, fiber, ground flaxseeds and bone meal powder in a single-serving blender. It tastes good, it's really filling and it's not that much harder to make or clean than cereal.
- Evgeny 16y agoSome cottage cheese mixed with natural whole milk yogurt and sour cream. A small cup of coffee with a tablet of sugarine.
- newobj 16y agoAn egg (fried, over easy) and well, I don't know what to call this: a piece of whole wheat bread, grilled on one side, then spread a light layer of ranch dressing on the soft side, sprinkle generously with nutritional yeast, and then apply a thin layer of Frank's buffalo sauce on top of that. I know it sounds disgusting, but trust me, it's f'ing delicious. I'm salivating now just thinking about it.
- omnigoat 16y agoSpot the Australian: Four Weetbix, and Orange Juice.
- rradu 16y agoMilk and cereal. Every day.
- lachyg 16y agoFried Eggs, Soy Sauce / Sambal, Spring Onions... Ketosis ftw.
- saundby 16y agoA can of Diet Coke and a banana. I seldom eat before noon, when I do it's usually a piece of fruit.
- tunaslut 16y agocroissant with apricot jam, muesli (with water, not milk) and coffee
