Let me give you some other ideas for easy breakfast recipes:

EGGS: Egg dishes and especially, egg casseroles are a great way to fix a good tasting breakfast for little effort. The wide variety of ingredients, combined with the various ways to cook eggs, will give you lots of variety for breakfast.
Eggs can cook very fast on the stove, not so fast in the oven, but either way, the prep time for the following recipes will not keep you in the kitchen long.
To make your own egg casserole, combine eggs and milk, enough for the dish your using (ususally 6-12 eggs). Add raw or cooked vegetables plus cooked meats to the mixture, along with seasonings. Pour into the casserole dish, and bake at 350 for about 45 -50 minutes,or until eggs are set.
Egg casseroles can use a variety of vegetables, meats, and other ingredients. Experiment and see what you can cook!

PANCAKES: Pancakes don't have to be plain. A variety of toppings, such as fruit, flavored syrups, chocolate chips and nuts will have you creating more flavor varieties. Batter ingredients don't have to be just flour either. Corn meal and other stir-ins will change the taste of pancakes. How about pumpkin as a stir-in? Candy can also work - chopped peanut buter cups, mounds bars, payday bars. Some other combinations:
- Stir in pineapple and coconut, top with macadamia nuts and syrup for a tropical pancake
- Stir in chocolate chips, top with crunchy peanut butter and maple syrup for a sweet breakfast treat
- Stir in vanilla and top with fresh peaches and whipped cream

FRENCH TOAST: Varieties of french toast recipes for breakfast include using different types of bread and different toppings. Ever thought of substituting a cinnamon roll for the bread? What about carmel or chocolate syrup. Again, fruit toppings can add a touch of gourmet to your french toast. For an adult only variety, substitute your favorite liqueur for part of the milk.
