Food ideas?

Question

What foods would make a large hearty breakfast (I can't think of anything besides bacon)?

Answer 1

A large breakfast casserole? Biscuits and sausage gravy? Chicken fried steak with gravy? Hashbrowns and cheese? Eggs? More sausage? Stuffed omelets? Fruit, OJ, Bloody Marys? Cinnamon rolls, bagels and cream cheese?

Answer 2

a 3 egg omelet with diced ham & onions would be a hearty breakfast if wanting it to last you for the day. Or sausage gravy over hashbrowns would do it too.

Answer 3

biscuits and gravy, and it is very filling too...and you could have sausage or bacon with that....it will go a long way and you all will have had enough to eat....i did this when i had large crowds for breakfast....

Answer 4

steak and eggs, biscutes and gravy, quishe, oatmeal or grits, pancakes. Anything with alot of wheat in it is going to "stick to your ribs". I find that breakfast that are higher in protien tend to keep me satisfied longer and give me more energy. Steak and eggs is my favorite, as I can usually even skip lunch and not run out of energy before dinner.

Answer 5

try sausage gravy over biscuits ...fried or scrambled eggs...sausage, bacon, hashbrowns....or if you like "grits" (big in the south....orange juice, milk, coffee...you can always have waffles topped with sliced apples, cinnamon, walnuts or pecans and syrup....sprinkle with cinnamon...tastes great....that is a heavy breakfast....
