Suggestions for Breakfast

When I was young we always had cooked breakfasts and they were served in hospitals too.
Then people turned to cereals or toast for many years.
Lately cooked breakfasts keep appearing on TV, publications and social media. I don’t know anyone who eats anything cooked for breakfast. In the normal frantic scrabble to get to work and school whoever finds time to prepare, eat and clear up a cooked meal?
I’d as likely cook eggs etc for breakfast as at 2 in the morning.

I’ve just had two scrambled eggs with hot smoked salmon.

I've started making overnight oats.
(5 tbsp) of porridge oats
(5 tbsp) of your preferred UK milk (e.g., semi-skimmed or dairy-free)
(3 tbsp) of 0% fat yogurt

I add Chia seeds 1tbs which requires 2 more tbs of milk
mix it and leave in the fridge overnight and then top with a little honey and preferred choice of fruit. It is very filling

Why not have what King Charles has for breakfast if you have the time - baked eggs, spinach and cheese or eggs Benedict.

What about his plums?
Apparently he must have 2 at breakfast but only ever eats one.

You can get the Hollandaise sauce from a bottle for quickness for the Eggs Benedict.

Cut up juicy peaches topped with Greek yoghurt. 🍑

Shakshuka - I made it for special brunches. It’s basically fried onions, peppers tomatoes and eggs with spices, but you can add feta or sausages or chick peas- lots of variations. Really delicious.

Banana make great smoothies and pancakes, or just fried in a little butter or a handful of raspberries. If your weight can bear it, mashed with cream and a spoonful of brown sugar.

(My digestive system does prefer them cooked).

I was advised by a dietician that an omelette is a good daily breakfast. There are so many filling options to give variety from day to day. Also quick and easy to make, and just a wipe round the omelette pan if you beat the egg in the pan.

Find a decent sized glass and layer up frozen fruit with plain yoghurt. A simple Greek yoghurt is good. Cover will cling film and put in the fridge overnight where it'll be ready for you in the morning. I also use granola which I don't think is suitable for you.

I make an air fryer "muffin" with an egg and a rasher of streaky bacon.
Cut bacon into small pieces, line a small soufflé dish with bacon, add egg. Cook in air fryer approx 8 mins 200° . Cooking yome can be varied dependant on texture of egg preferred. Leave about 5 mins, tip out and eat as a muffin. (I cook mine 10 mins leave for 10 mins and by that time its firm and easily handled).
Next would be mix of Greek yoghurt and mashed up soft fruits.

Tahini on toast (a bread you can tolerate) with sliced avocado on is a tasty change too.

If you have Instagram Dr Rupy (Drs kitchen) has good ideas.
Also Dominique Ludwig is a big favourite. As a nutritionist she gives lots of good advice and recipes. You can google for recipes from them too.

Dominique makes a 2 item loaf from red lentils.

Most mornings I have 100% Greek yoghurt.
Not the Greek style one. Faye.

I sprinkle with mixed omega three seeds.
Milled flaxseed.
Blueberries, raspberries. Occasionally chopped strawberries.
Then drizzled with honey.
It’s delicious and fairly filling.

I have IBS and find overnight oats with psyllium husk, a small piece of banana and some almond butter has helped me enormously, but everybody’s IBS is different.

Honey is generally only safe in small amounts (1 teaspoon) I think. And almost certainly not Clover honey - which contains even higher levels of fructose.

Rice cakes with peanut butter.

I shall be having dippy Burford Brown eggs and hot buttered crumpets (👋 to you EllanVannin!) and L’il Miss who had her first sleepover last night pre ordered warm pain au chocolat with a fruit pot 😁

Scrambled egg with a slice of toasted white real sourdough bread (traditional sourdough is much lower in FODMAPs than standard wheat bread, and white bread keeps the fiber minimal).

Small helping of porridge with blueberries (not too many) or half a firm banana.

Greek yogurt is great because the straining process removes a lot of the whey/lactose and bumps up the protein.

A spoonful of regular, full-sugar Teisseire syrups over your yogurt (or rice pudding/porridge) - Strawberry, Grenadine, or Peach or Passionfruit for example. Drizzled over Greek yogurt this is delicious. Beware the sweetener in the no-sugar versions.

White rice with a poached (runny yolk) egg on top and a splash or two of shoyu or tamari. Or alternatively a spoonful of white miso (Shiro) or red miso (Aka) disolved in a little hot water as a sauce. Not barley miso. Just check the grains on the label.

Monash University is a world leader in IBS and FODMAP info... I expect you knew this.
