Have I ever told you that breakfast is my favorite meal of the day?
Because it is, it really is. But…I should clarify. I’m talking about ‘the works’ kind of breakfast. You know, the restaurant type meals, where you get eggs, bacon, sausage, toast, pancakes…all that good stuff. Although I love cereal, yogurt, and smoothies for breakfast, it doesn’t rank up there in my ‘favorite meal’ category.
But breakfast from a restaurant? Yes, please!
Whenever the hubster and I can’t decide where to go for dinner, I always suggest going out for breakfast somewhere, as there are a few Greek diner type restaurants near us that serve breakfast all day. And that always hits the spot!
But, I think I’ve found my new favorite kind of breakfast that you can make at home, and still has that restaurant quality appeal!
