#105 - 16 Breakfasts with Traditional Foods (Fast, Prep-Ahead, and On the Go!)

What are some traditional foods we can eat for breakfast, and do we have examples of ancestral breakfasts in history? In this episode Alison and I got together to talk about what we eat to start the day. We included a variety of “types” of breakfasts. First, we start out with fast breakfasts, things you can make very quickly. Whether you’re going to school, you have kids going to school, or you homeschool - there’s not a lot of time in the morning typically to linger over a long breakfast. We then included some longer prep but hands-off breakfasts. Things you could make if you were getting up early; you could start it simmering or baking and then head off to chores and come back to a finished breakfast. Next, we covered some portable breakfasts. These are things you could take in the train, in the car, I guess in your carriage, and get out doing chores or heading into town. We have a lot of delicious breakfasts here and went way over the number of breakfasts I intended! We got some really delicious ones for you! I am looking forward to hearing your feedback.
