For my oatmeal I stir in peanut butter, raisins or cranraisins, brown sugar, cinnamon, whole milk, and almond slivers. Yummy.

Dang, just throw those in the oven and make some cookies..... sounds good.
 
Bacon!!! There are some restaurants in NYC which serve huge thick cut bacon as appetizers... before your steak... Heaven, it is!!!

If you ever tasted my wife's creole shrimp and grits, you'd become believers...I still take my martinis without grits, however...

shrimp and grits... never heard of that but I guess it goes with "fish & grits" which I had for the 1st time about 2 months ago. It wasnt bad but I prefer bacon or sausage with my grits :)

Ive never ordered shrimp and grits, but I've sampled it from a date's plate.. and it was quite tasty. Im sure there are many variations to it..... but the one i sampled consisted of"shrimp, tomatoes, scallions, applewood smoked bacon, and tarragon cream sauce over crispy fried grits " :cool:

Fish and grits are good as well.... not sure how you had it... but on the menu's Ive seen, the fish are fried. Guess it doesnt matter what kind of fish... I would probably choose whiting. Gotta have scrambled eggs on the side
 
sounds good... Im not a seafood guy so no shrimp for me :oops:

whiting and tilapa are great fried.. with or without grit, just give me some bread and hot sauce :D
 
Going to have to make sure I make on last trip to the WaHo while bringing my son home from Atlanta for the last time. So many places to visit one last time food wise, so little time. The Varsity...Wa Ho...Mary Mac's Tea Room...The World of Coca-Cola - okay, no food in that last one, but every flavor of carbonated beverage from around the world to sample. Not sure I will ever have the courage to try the Beverly, though.
 
Breakfast is the most glorious meal with out a doubt. My fav is one I get to eat! Pancakes, bacon, breakfast taters, and as many eggs over easy as I can get. Pancakes smothered in egg yoke Oh My! Genetic thing...cholesterol never goes up to where I have to worry. Grits...yuck. Cream of wheat...double yuck. Oatmeal...(fill in the yucks).
 
Went to the county fair last night. My wife had her favorite fair food - a mammoth sized smoked turkey leg.

In an ode to the earlier posters - there was a stand advertising the smoked turkey leg "wrapped in bacon". Which sounds good, but we had already eaten when we saw it.​
 
I managed to make it over to Biscuitville yesterday, and tried the new Bacon and Pimento Cheese biscuit..... well i tried two :) They are wonderful.... Bacon does make certain things better.. though I dont like Bacon on my burgers. My next bacon challenge is the Maple donuts with bacon bits from Donut World.

It's inexplicable, but my favorite food has always been Cheerios. I even have a bowl for dinner once a week or so.

I like bacon, but I can't quite understand how it seems to become so popular all of a sudden...

That said, we were in Florida last year and some place had a bacon-cheeseburger that was served on a glazed donut. I didn't order it, but I wish I had if for no other reason than to say I did. I actually think it would have been pretty good...
 
homefries for breakfast anyone? I dont care for them especially IHOP's
 
I miss some of the breakfasts that were served when I was in the Navy. Eggs, baked beans, white SOS (creamed chipped beef on toast) or red SOS (ground beef in a tomato base on toast).

Actually really like that too. Haven't had that in years.

I remember the white stuff was usually called "foreskins on toast". Here's a recipe but you might have to adjust it a bit. It calls for 7 lbs of chipped beef.:)

I was never in service, but my Dad was in WWII. He brought a liking for creamed chip beef to the house. When I was young, my Mom was able to get actual chip beef at the local five and dime, and cream it herself. Then it started coming in a jar.

Now, only in select restaurants, none of which I think are in Tucson. We used to go to a diner in NJ every once in a while just because it was on the menu.

I also like baked beans with eggs, but that taste was aquired on my own.

I make some really good baked beans, but never tried them with eggs??? hmmm???

Scrambled I assume?
 
I forgot one of my all time favorite breakfasts. Huevos Rancheros! A tortilla topped with chorizo, refried beans, a couple of over easy eggs, salsa fresca and shredded cheese. Heaven, and a need for a bypass, all on the same plate.

Next to each other, not mixed in my case. However, the Good Egg features some skillets where you have a choice of black beans or potatoes as the base for your eggs and other ingredients. It is touted as the dietetic option.

Oh yeah!! I always have Huevos Rancheros when I visit southern California... The best!!!

On another note...

I have spent some time in Scotland... Breakfasts there are to die for... (They know how to pass away in bliss...) Beautiful bacon, not with ribs of fat but all loin... Sausages, plump ones, not the skinny overdone ones we see most of the time. Black pudding... Baked tomatoes, Eggs... Scones... Muffins... Ecstasy...

I am never sure after a week of those breakfasts whether I could ever pass a cholesterol test after returning, but then again, at my age, who cares!!!
 
Best meal? The one someone else pays for. Absent that, I'll take shrimp marinara over angel hair with crunchy garlic bread in one hand and a nice cabernet in the other. Shrimp in any form actually will do just fine.
