What do you eat for breakfast?

whatever i made the day before or have in the freezer. i HATE having the same meals every day. it gets boring for me.

i have quite a few things to choose from in the fridge: sweet potato custard, homemade maple sausages, roasted pork belly, chicken drumsticks, smoked mussels, eggs, bacon fat balls. uhhh i have no clue what i'm gonna pick today!

goodness you're all so healthy, how on earth do you find time to cook all of that in the morning? Im a cereal girl with the mandatory cup of tea.

bananas and yogurt lately.. I'm ok with eating the same food for long periods at a time.

I eat leftovers for breakfast. Today I had sweet potato hash with ground turkey. It was pretty tasty.

Lol, NCOT, dont knock it until you try it. But what can I say, I like the combo even if most would hate it (but if you would hate it, at least try it without the cheddar). I also like putting plain Fage greek yogurt on top of a combo cooked banana/cheddar cheese mess lol... The combo of cool yogurt instantly chilling the warmed stuff is wonderful, like hot chocolate sauce on ice cream. If you check out some if those modern day cooking competition shows such combos of sweet and salty are becoming more common. To answer your questions though, VSL3 satchets do have some maltose as sweetener, and the probiotic itself is in some sort of dairy-ish base. As far as feeding good bacteria ... Yeah not feeding any phantom colon lol... But I reckon the small gut still needs feeding-- all that talk about SIBO even in the colonless, as well as the proven effect of probiotics as therapy in crohns of the small gut tends to make me think that its not a bad idea to keep up some probiotics post-colon as an insurance policy, even though the risk of dysbiosis may be much lower given the rate at which the tubing is flushed out.

I don't mind some Fage yoghurt (the full-fat stuff, the fat-free version isn't worth eating) with some honey, lemon curd, etc. I also like it with granola and strawberry jam or, a tad more healthily, berries. Can't see adding it to porridge though; I think it's better suited to something non-sour, like cream or butter, both of which are the dog's bollocks in porridge.

Tbh, with the cheddar cheese and sour yoghurt, you may as well go for the full tex-mex experience with your oatmeal and add salsa, jalapenos and refried beans >_>.

Re the VSL3. Well, the thing is, you don't want too much bacteria in the small bowel, because then you would end up with SIBO. And that's not a desirable thing to have. But that said, I don't really know enough about it: it's an interesting concept, taking probiotics for the small bowel - don't think I've heard of it before.

i've been doing eggs, scrambled or omelette with veggies if i have time, if not i boil enough for a few days at a time. smoked salmon for protein, with some fruit and avocado.
