I was halfway through cooking breakfast, and my son reminds me he has to leave soon for band practice. Oops! School holidays are over, but I haven't adjusted yet. What to do? Original plan was for chopped up sausages (and maybe some greens) cooked in rice; sausages are fried but nothing else done. So, add garlic, sambal oelek, canned lentils, tomato paste, chop up sausages, and done!

Tasty, too.

You should try ready made Schmoosli for the breakfast it is made up of Combining oats, barley, nuts, seeds and the goodness of real fruit pieces, Schmoosli has up to a whopping 19 ingredients.

Sounds good. I have never had a hot rice dish for breakfast, but my
late, great Aunt Reba, would serve cold, leftover rice for breakfast,
sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar, served with milk, like cereal. We
told my mother about it and she thought it was horrible (we loved it).
A larger percentage of people on this plant have rice for breakfast.

Band practice during the summer was at 7:00am for me, so your son is
lucky that you are cooking for him. I remember having a Coca-Cola for
breakfast. No worries, I have to be up for a couple of hours before I am
hungry.

I grew up on baked rice pudding. I always liked it but I found something
better, a Greek style rice pudding where the Arborio rice is par boiled
and then simmered in scaled milk with some sugar for 40 minutes. Then
add tempered eggs and stir constantly until it starts to thicken. You
can add raisins or other dried fruits if you want. Pour it into a bowl
and sprinkle with cinnamon. It is a lot of work, a true labour of love,
but it is worth it.

It's easy to cook a substantial breakfast that it is to find something good for his lunch that he will like and eat. Feed him well before school, and he makes it to the end of the day without lunch. Breakfast is our largest meal of the day, usually.

(Today was the rest of the same lot of sausages. Fried, sliced and mixed with couscous, sliced banana chillies, pickled chillies, sliced sundried tomatoes, olives, and red wine vinegar & olive oil dressing.)

Back when I was married, "he" liked to have leftover rice from dinner
just to do that for breakfast the next day. Even though it technically
wasn't, he called it rice pudding. Cheap, easy and filling breakfast.
