Roast potatoes for breakfast

On the odd occasion I used to go to the club with husband for a Sunday lunchtime drink with friends. There was always roast potatoes on the bar. And yes I always had some.

I have never understood why there are unwritten rules about what food should be eaten when. If you feel like roast potatoes for brekkie thats awesome.

Daughter used to be a pain at breakfast, she hated cereal. So Mondays she had leftover Yorkshire puds and gravy, other days included rice pudding, fruit scones and fruit cake. Sometimes cream crackers and cheese.

No matter how long I’ve been in Canada, nothing beats an Ulster Fry any time of the day.

I have a two-tier steamer so fill both tiers with assorted veg, use one tier for my evening meal and pick my way through the second tier the following day. It's really helped with the weight. Not that I'm bothered about the weight - I just make sure I step off the scales before they tell me I am obese!

Llamedos13 you’re right, they’re very tasty with a fry up!

Coming home from a late shift: Cold roast potatoes with probably too much salt and a chicken wing from a roast dinner. Absolutely ace!

Lovely - used to really enjoy last night’s curry cold for breakfast

Grannynannywanny, they look delicious. Even tastier fried in bacon fat

I eat cereal late at night sometimes and would happily eat roast leftovers of a morning.....your belly doesn't know what time it is (does it?)

I’m finding this thread very surprising! I do agree that people should eat what they want and when they want it but I don’t think I could do it. What I want is nearly always unhealthy! Without thinking I just have cereal and fruit for breakfast and a sandwich or salad for lunch. I prefer to save cooked food for the evening. I must have been indoctrinated! I should add that we do use up our leftovers but as part of our evening meal.

Elevenses you're allowed ?and roast potatoes allowed anytime. Cold with a sprinkling of salt, delish.

And why ever not? ?

Mind you, I speak as someone who finds Christmas cake for breakfast perfectly acceptable.

As we get older, we are allowed to have what we like when we like. At least in this house.

My dear old dad was a lover of sprouts and even enjoyed them cold. He would cook a double amount and keep the leftovers in a bowl in the fridge and snack on them. He said they were as nice as sweets. The smell opening his fridge door was enough for me to decline a taster. 3 day old cold sprouts don’t smell very appetising !

Just had sausage and green beans sandwich. Lush!

Added some grated cheese and onion to mashed potatoes the other day and fried as potato cakes !!! Bloody delicious ?

Now I'm craving for roast potatoes.

This is one of the plusses of living alone for me. I eat whatever I fancy whenever I fancy. Joy. Interestingly my type and quantity of food now consumed varies dramatically from just a few years ago. If I had know how I might eat now awhile back I would have laughed it out of court as 'not a chance!' Funny old life but..... decidedly enjoyable.

I don’t think there are any wrong times where food is concerned.I can’t eat cold roast potatoes though, at any time.
DH adores them, so I always cook some extra to be put in the fridge for him.
I had marmalade on buttered toast for a snack at 10.30 last night.

I once offered my GD crumpets as a teatime snack. She looked very surprised and said-"Now? Crumpets are for breakfast!". They are in her house, apparently.
Years ago when we went to my aunt's for Sunday lunch, the menfolk would go to the pub while it was cooking, as there were always roast potatoes on the bar as a snack.

Doesn't anyone dunk a biscuit in a hot drink for breakfast?

When I was still living at home with my mum, we'd often just cook up a dish of roast potatoes as a snack! I'd always have mine with gravy and mint sauce.

Delish!

Whatever the time of day, if you fancy something to eat, just eat it. You aren’t pregnant are you Witzend?!!

Now we are adults we can have just apple pie and custard for lunch, but children can’t. I feel sorry for them when they’ve got to eat their main meal first.
