Breakfast na hindi de-lata or processed meat

[irene]

hi!! breakfast is a big deal for us. wag na masarap ang lunch and dinner, wag lang ang breakfast. because i and my hubby can skip both but not the breakfast. pero, im trying to get rid of the usual de lata and processed meat. for one, both of us may history sa cancer. pero... masarap talaga ang mga processed meat e!! ayaw naman namin mag ulam ng tipong pang lunch or dinner na (like sinigang, paksiw, etc.)

what can you suggest?

why not try a vegetable breakfast?... you can make an omelet with all-veggies like potatoes, tomatoes, carrots, etc... home made beef tapa or macaroni soup... just do everything by yourself and they dont come from cans, safe ka na dyan...

[princess_f]

^Yup, omelette sounds good! Chop mushrooms, tomatoes, cheese, yummm! Or if may left over ulam kayo, like shrimp, crab, super sarap din in an omelette. Also try veggies, I personally like cauliflower and brocolli

Tama si sis Ielle, if you make it yourself, it's safer, cause you control what goes in it. And you see what goes in it! Walang mystery meat. You can also make your own tapa so you can control the sodium, flavorings, etc - at home we use sirloin, sarap, parang steak!

You can go the usual route with oatmeal + banana. It's yummy and extremely healthful. Mabubusog ka pa longer

kapag heavy breakfast,we like daing na bangus (boneless) in breakfast.
also fried pork chop
salted eggs with tomatoes
fried chicken
home made tapa (timplado lang ng salt,calamansi, at konting soysauce)
minsan
tortang giniling
chicken adobo( yung hindi masabaw)
omelette with mushroom

kapag light lang:
oatmeal
champorado
boiled egg with cheese and mayo

omelette -- One of our favorites is spanish omelette. The hubby and I cannot have enough of this.
oatmeal -- filling and has fiber too. You can add Milo, chocolate syrup or fruit to make it yummier.
grilled cheese sandwich -- my kids love this. And they can eat this on their way to school.

I avoid processed food too so I make my own longganiza and tapa. It's easy lang. Follow basic recipe for longganiza and tapa but omit the salitre and other preservatives.

Btw, just a warning to everyone: salitre is a very toxic substance. If you use too much of it in processing your own meat (like homemade corned beef), it can land you in the hospital. I read about one such case in Food Magazine where the writer recounted that two of them ended up in the ER!

try nyo rin po iba-ibang klase ng omelette. gusto ko yung japanese omelette rice, called 'omu-rice' in most restos. simple lang gawin and very versatile kasi pwede mo ilagay sa loob kahit anong filling ang gusto mong ihalo sa rice. like green peas, corn, leftover meat, and others.

> halabos na hipon, fried rice and egg
> pancakes with light syrup,jam & tsokolate (local version of hot chocolate)

> kani sandwich (wheat bread, mayonaise, kani sticks, lettuce, itallian dressing [tomatoes, eggs are optional]) & french fries
> left over adobo turned into adobo flakes, rice
> homemade champorado & tuyo
> arroz caldo
> suman at mangga

i hope i was able to help you.

tinapa with tomatoes kasama ng fried rice
egg sunny side up & fried rice
vegetable salad & pita bread
vegetable salad wrapped in crepes

[fancybags]

Our usual breakfast:

- beef tapa (home-made lang: soysauce, calamansi, garlic, salt, sugar)
- smoked fish (tinapa, bangus)
- dried fish (danggit, tuyo, dilis)
- daing na bangus
- eggs
- omelette (our fave is crab omelette)
- pancakes
- salted egg w/tomatoes (sarap nito!)
- halabos na hipon
- paksiw na isda (ako lang may gusto nito sa amin! )

actually, guilty ako sa processed meat, fave kasi ni hubby yung fatless tocino ng Pampanga's Best.

naku di talaga maganda sa health ang de-lata. hangga't maiiwasan, iwasan natin.

honestly, di ako nagbe-breakfast unless rest day ng mother ko or father ko.

usually, sunny-side up egg ang almusal namin. never to friend rice. hot chocolate made ng mom ko

pag di sunny-side up, nagluluto ako ng tuyo (sarap lalo na pag tag-ulan)

ang pinakamadalas eh oatmeal with fruits

[irene]

thanks for all the replies sisters!!! i forgot to mention nga pala na mdyo gahol din kami ni hubby sa morning (both of us are late sleepers kasi but both of us have to wake up early din) kaya option talaga is to have de-lata para mabilis. maybe i just have to prepare everything in the evening noh?

please keep suggestions coming mga sis!!

[sue323]

Try: pork chop, fried egg and rice or pan de sal with creamcheese.

[cayzed]

hello irene,
Read ur concern abt breakfast.  there are some processed tuna products that you may consider...being healthy, masarap pa siya...products such as Tuna Embutido Tuna Ham, Tuna Tapa, Tuna Tocino, Tuna Burger Patties and Tuna BBQ (the best!).  Endless choices for variety breakfast.  
They are easy to prepare and at the same time, yummy (doesnt even taste fish-y!) and healthy pa.  

[jazzmine777]

homemade tapa
homemade chicken tocino
dried pusit
fried galunggong
tortang talong
tortang giniling
sinaing na tulingan
paksiw na bangus (sarap nito sa fried rice)
porkchop
fried chicken or chicken barbecue

basta ikaw ang gagawa sis, makokontrol mo yung mga ingredients at alam mong hindi makakasama sa health ninyo

[jarjarbinks]

maybe i just have to prepare everything in the evening noh?

ganun na nga talaga ang dapat gawin sis 

[mamajenn]

-- hay, nakakagutom naman 

- garlic fried rice, tuyo, kamatis at kape - my favorite breakfast for all seasons 

[imortelle]

Fruits and cereals are great for breakfast. Try pancakes too.

[aMz]

I too almost always prepare my breakfast in the evening.  Then I just reheat it for breakfast. 

1.  Tortang talong
2.  Daing na bangus and egg
3.  Giniling na pork with potatoes
4.  Breaded porkchop


You might want to try Peaches and banana topped with cottage cheese!  I swear its very delish!

[irene]

since hubby doesnt have work today due to heavy rains, i had enuf time to prepare breakfast for him. i made:

omelette- egg, tomatoes, potatoes, onions, pieces of leftover meat.
longganisa - homemade from my sis-in-law
danggit - deep fried para crunchy. wont be complete without vinegar of course
garlic rice- with bits of tinapa and sprinkled with green onions
hot chocolate for him and coffee for me

[star.alvarez]

Danggit, tuyo, daing, dilis, dried pusit
***with suka and fried rice***

Champorado, Arroz Caldo, Goto, Lugaw, Macaroni Soup, Sotanghon, etc.

Try to be creative sis! Good Luck!
