I was looking for a breakfast thread and never found one that seemed open-ended enough to post on. So here y'all go!
Posty up your breakfast if you like, even if it's cold leftover pizza.
No time for words? No problem. Show us your awesome yellowish cell phone camera pic. No obligation to write out a recipe here if you don't want to.
Forgot to take a picture until halfway through the meal? Perfect! Selfie photo-op.
Whoops! You made brunch instead? That's cool... it counts.
I'll go first with a take on a Cuban breakfast called Huevos Habaneros. It means Havana Eggs, but it's not made with Habaneros. In fact, it's not traditionally spicy hot. (Cuban meals typically aren't.) So, I had to SoFlo it up a bit and call it something different.
Huevos SoFlo
These are eggs baked over sofrito with butter on top in a custard cup for about 12 minutes at 375 F (yolks are still a bit runny). Then topped with more sofrito and garnished with some cayenne powder, but sofrito isn't spicy hot either. So...
Sofrito Caliente
(Enough for one serving)
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 Fresno pepper (cored and chopped)
1 green jalapeno (cored and chopped)
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 cup peeled, cored, chopped tomato
olive oil for sauteing
Saute the onion and peppers till the onion is translucent. Then add the garlic and cumin for a minute more. Then toss in the tomato for another minute or two. Salt and black pepper to taste.
Do it up y'all!
Let's see what breaks your fast.

. Nonetheless, I found duck eggs at the farmers' market a while back and made a duck egg breakfast burrito. Sauteed king mushrooms, cream cheese, jalapenos (and some other mildly spicy pepper I grew but don't know what it is because it was mislabeled) in butter and oil and then scrambled in the duck eggs. Sprinkled it generously with DeeRoo Star Dust and wrapped it up in pita bread from a local bakery. The Start Dust is like candy. I seldom buy spice rubs but when this becomes available in larger quantities I will spring for a few tons. Sorry but the final pic is blurry. I guess my hand was too shaky in anticipation of the next bite.
