lol naw you were right. I learned to cook breakfast while working different jobs. They like fancy breakfast foods. You ever eaten a sausage, egg, and cream cheese bagel?
That shyt is fire and idiot proof. A Swedish kid taught me how to make that.
Most people are not putting hours into making breakfast. I don't make food, my dear, I make love with these hands and this imagination.
Food is preference I think. I like my bacon cooked until there's no visible fat. Some like their bacon under-cooked. I refuse to eat under-cooked eggs. Some people don't even know what under-cooked eggs look like.
The typical American breakfast is idiot proof, you're right. But if you choose to level up your breakfast I suggest stuffing shyt with shyt. Stuffed pancakes are fire. Try chocolate, bacon, & blueberry stuffed pancakes served with a strawberry butter reduction. Roasted tomato cheesy polenta is easy and different. Polenta is basically grits.
Fruit salad is hella boring but simple to dress up. A fruit salad usually has pears, apples, melons, & grapes. Bake, spice, and add sugar to the pears and apples. Hollow out the apples after they've been baked and serve the melons and grapes inside the apple. Garnish with powdered sugar and mint.
Left over penne or orzo pasta make a great breakfast. Steam your pasta back to life. Cook bacon. Fry eggs in bacon grease how-ever you like. Mix it together with roasted spiced tomatoes and you've got a fancy simple breakfast.
