She cooked Green Plantain and Steamed cabbage for breakfast

I am not a breakfast person until I am up for awhile.I like my coffee to get going and then later I can have breakfast.This morning I just had a Slim Fast shake.I am trying to loose some weight.Have a good day

Vegetables are definitely not my kind of breakfast. I usually eat a scrambled egg, toast, and hot tea and occasionally grits. Sometimes I have oatmeal, toast, and hot tea. Other times, it might be waffles or pancakes. But vegetables are out for breakfast. The only vegetable I'd eat for breakfast is an irish potato either friend, or hashbrowns. And I love cabbage, but for other meals.

My fiance and I haven't properly learned to cook yet so really all we eat is say cereal or something like that. I suppose that when I do learn to cook more and he the same we'll eat more healthier in the morning or if nothing else a quantity breakfast.

that was really nice of her to do. i am a breakfast person. i didn't eat my normal breaksast this morn. i had trouble sleeping last night so about 3;30 a.m. i had a sweet roll & a glass of milk. went to bed then & finally slept.

i rarely eat breakfast too. but i enjoy eating vegetables as long as they are deliciously prepared. but i am not good in making delicious meals specially vegetables. but i find some vegetables are better eaten when boiled and they still are tasty without any condiments on it or food seasonings.

So nice of her to make the effort to cook such a nutritious breakfast. My usual breakfast is coffee and biscuits or bread with butter. Nothing as sumptious as what your DIL prepare. Many of the working adults have their breakfast in coffee, for a cost of S$2, they get a cup of coffee, 2 half-boiled eggs, and bread with thick kaya and butter. Not exactly a healthy choice. The thick layer of kaya and butter can clog up the arteries.

I am not a breakfast person mainly because I rush off to work by 10am and cant really negotiate the public transport on a full stomach (I feel like throwing up)…so I carry fruits with me which I have later at office. BTW plantain chips are very tasty and we have it too as a snack. Cabbages are OK but I don’t know too many ways of cooking it. Would you pls share how this cabbage and plantain fry was made? This sounds a real nice deviation from the regulation breakfast of eggs and cornflakes which I serve to my husband and child.

I had a ham and cheese omlette with hash browns and toast. Breakfast is my main meal. I skip lunch....have an afternoon snack then a light supper.....what is Plantain?

If I am not mistaken, plantains are bananas, right? If so, I love to eat that but I can't have much because it causes me constipation.

That was very nice of her to make a big breakfast this morning. I actually had some pizza for breakfast this morning. My son asked for pizza in his school lunch so I cooked one up this morning. I sent some with him and I had some for breakfast.

That was very nice of her to prepare breakfast. I usually just have coffee and toast too. But, I would enjoy an occasional breakfast outing.

Hey cynthiann! That sounds so delicious it is making my mouth water as I am typing! I love cabbage and plantains! I have never thought of making them together, but I will now! I am glad that you were able to enjoy your breakfast! Why does your dil have to leave? Are they divorced? Or does she just have to go back for some other reason? That is so sad that she has to leave the children like that. I don't mean to pry, I just feel so badly for your family. It doesn't sound like anyone is angry with her so I don't quite understand why she has to leave.

Wow! That sounds amazing! I had fried plantains in Cuba but I have never thought to make them myself. I also lived in Dubai about two years ago, what a magical place! Have you ever been to visit? Anyway, I digress. For breakfast I had a potato scone, which I made myself, on a bun with ketchup. It was fantastic and reminded me of home (Scotland) as I live in USA now. Can't have too many of those though, carbohydrate city! Have you ever tried them?

Sounds awesome, I'd love to know how she made it. Ironically I am a professional cook that does breakfast currently for a large resort. This morning I grabbed a cup of our juice of the day I think it was berries and pineapple, then made myself an omelet with mushroom, onion, tomato, monterey jack cheese, cheddar cheese, and some tomatillo salsa for the top. It was the perfect start to the day even though I had already been up for three hours. I usually try to grab a piece of toast when I first wake up just to jump start my metabolism then a nice breakfast a few hours later. The rest of the day I am so busy tasting this and that to make sure it's correct or grabbing that awesome looking strawberry that I just walked by that I don't eat lunch anymore. The piecing helps with keeping up your metabolism to burn calories and fat. For dinner I try to eat steamed vegetables or fruit so that I'm not consuming a lot of calories before bed. If you eat a large dinner like most people do it does not usually digest by the time you go to sleep. When you go to sleep your metabolism drops and all that food that you ate for dinner becomes fat instead of you walking it off throughout the day. So really if you're serious about loosing weight, try switching what you eat for dinner to breakfast and the toast and or fruit for dinner. You say you're busy rushing to get to work, but makeup a dinner dish in the evening that you can just heat up in the morning. If you're really that much in a hurry cook up some oatmeal with honey and raisins or apples whatever you like in it. It's at least better than just toast. Of course I am assuming you can't eat breakfast after you get to work like I can so get that metabolism going. Good luck!
