Bloody Mary's before a round of golf in the morning. (Is this savory or sweet?)
Savory, for sure.
I'm really bad about grabbing breakfast on the way to work rather than cooking at home. Qdoba breakfast burritos are pretty solid, and also have a local convenience store that makes homemade breakfast burritos. Have a solid bagel place on the way to work also that has a horseradish cheddar that I get on breakfast sandwiches.
On weekends I almost always cook a big, solid breakfast. Lately been perfecting my biscuits and gravy recipe.

During the week, if I eat breakfast, it's a yogurt smoothie. If I feel like actually eating breakfast, it's a breakfast sandwich.
Weekends I don't usually eat breakfast at all but if I do it's probably an omelette with bacon, cheese, spinach, mushroom, and jalepenos. If I eat out then I throw in some hashbrowns and maybe a biscuit and gravy.
I might be fat for a reason.

Also just dropping in to say that over easy is the best way to eat an egg.
Mop up the extra yolk with a piece of toast or hashbrowns.

If you're a yolk man and can't do sunny side up, try "country style" or basted eggs. Throw in some water and cover your eggs so the steam cooks that fine outer layer of the yolk.
Never heard of this method before. I'll have to try it.
Sometimes when flipping the over easy egg, the yolk breaks and it gives me a sad. This seems like a way to circumvent having to flip.
That's exactly why I have converted to this. The white of the egg isn't as crispy as when you fry it but you can use less water or an obscene amount of butter to get a crispier white.
Yeah - I'm not a big Micky D's fan, but I absolutely love their B, E, & C biscuit!
I am semi-ashamed to say that the McDonald's sausage McMuffin with egg/cheese is in my top 5 foods of all time.
My favorite home creation is a brat and sauerkraut omelette.

OK. Who let the hippie in here?
I stand by my steel cut. The sun butter thing is out of necessity. I can't have peanut butter in the house thanks to not one but two little kids with food allergies.
Most workday mornings, I have one egg, OE, and my dog gets to lick the plate when I'm through. Then I will have a can of V-8 when I get to work. If I'm in a real hurry, it's carnation instant breakfast (choc) with a glass of 2% milk. Weekends, sausage, eggs, hash browns with cheese, or an occasional breakfast burrito if we have tortillas around.
Okay, I don't eat only coffee for breakfast. After a whole bunch of java my new homebound go to is Shredded Wheat, Cheerios, raisins (not sugar coated ones) and bananas. All of the sugar in most cereals just doesn't agree with me that well. Even the "natural" or "healthy" branded stuff is packed full of sugar. I even drink my coffee black.
Actual breakfast this morning:
Work days - cup of yogurt and water (it's my healthy meal)
Weekends - cereal, unless I'm treating it like a 09:00-10:00 brunch thing where I'm only eating that and dinner for the day. If that's the case, the sky is the limit. Pancakes or waffles or french toast or biscuits and gravy or eggs benedict with hash browns, sausage, bacon, eggs, etc. I don't do a really big breakfast very often, but when I do, I make enough food to feed my family 3 times. It's a sickness.

That's generally my work day breakfast too. Except I throw in a cheese stick. Yes, I'm one of those monsters that bites off chunks of the string cheese instead of pulling it apart in strings.
I did that once in front of my daughter and she gave me a "you're not my father" look
Wait, that's not how everyone does it? Why would you pull it apart? If I wanted shredded cheese then I would buy and eat shredded cheese.
I use string cheese sticks to dip in hummus. It's awesome.
