  1. scramble 3 eggs with a little milk, cook with a small amount of oil, low heat.For the pancake,add  blueberries or other fruit(not like pineapple),and if you have ham or bacon, cook and add to the set.A glass of milk or fruit juice and you are a chef.


  2. i like to roll my sausages  up in my pancakes,kinda like a sausage roll..i think this will be helpful because you can eat it with one hand..

    hope this helps

  3. I think just your effort alone will make her smile - even with just a bowl of cheerios.

    IDEAS:

    -a breakfast burrito:  fry eggs (any veggies she likes) & cheese.  wrap in a warm tortilla.  she can even eat it with one hand

    -pancake additions: banana, cinnamon/ sugar, berries

    -bagel / cream cheese

    -fruit warmed chocolate to dip it in

  4. Blueberries or chocolate chips are great in pancakes.

  5. You could just make a big dessert- have a vacation! These are easy if you follow the instruction closely

    Ingredients

    1/2 cup butter, melted

    1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa

    1 cup sugar

    2 eggs

    2 teaspoons vanilla

    1/2 cup flour

    1/4 teaspoon salt

    Directions

    1Preheat oven to 350°F.

    8Spread in pan and bake for approximately 25 minutes.

    9DO NOT OVER-BAKE -- your brownies will come out dry. Adjust time/temp accordingly for your oven. If you do the knife/toothpick test, it should come out with moist crumbs, not clean.

    10Cool completely before cutting into squares.

    11For vegetarian omit the marshmallows.

    OR

    1 bag of Ore Ida southern style hash brown potatoes

    1 bag of shredded cheddar cheese

    1 tub of sour cream

    1 can of Cream of Chicken soup

    1 stick of butter melted

    chopped up onion (how much is whatever you'd prefer)

    or

    Cut french bread in 2 inch slices, cut a pocket in each. Stuff them with browned pork sausage or chopped ham or bacon and some cheeses. Dip into beaten egg, fry like french toast til brown on both sides. A BIG hit anywhere I make them!!!


  6. HASH!!!!

  7. A bowl of fruit is easy - any fruit chopped up in a bowl or a bowl of apricots, a glass of juice, toast with butter and jam on the side easy breakfast that requires o cooking except the toast

  8. Sausage links are easy, I put them in a skillet and put a little water in (until about 1/2 way up the sides of the sausage).  Let the water boil away and then let the sausages brown in the remaining fat.  They are done when they are no longer pink inside.  A can of apple pie filling goes well with both pancakes and sausage and all you have to do is pour it in a pan and heat it through (or put it in a microwave safe bowl and zap it!).  Coffee, orange juice and a little rose in a bud vase should finish things off nicely.

  9. Buy a pancake mix and follow the directions if it has any on the box,then when it is done put on whipped cream,after put on types of fruit (blueberries,strawberries,raspberries etc.) in a certain pattern to make it look nice. You can make extra things to add to make the breakfast special to her. Make sunny-side up eggs or whatever kind of eggs she likes and add some bacon or sausage.    

    Remember make sure she likes or isn't allergic to what you give

    her,she is hurt bad enough.

  10. Buy that pancake mix that comes in the jug and you just add water and shake shake shake, then add some blueberries or choc-chips or banana or whatever.. Or hashbrowns are easy to cook!! So is fried egg.. If all else fails... toast and cereal!!

  11. Well, I am a nurse, and a Mom, and a pretty good cook, and I tell you that the best breakfast to make them smile and feel better is 'Toad in the hole" ( my daughter still says, Mommy, will you make me toad in the hole- I'm Hungry..and she is 18) White bread, use a glass that is smaller than the bread and  mash it to cut out a hole. Have a skillett heated on the stove with a pat of melted butter andput in the bread- the round part next to the slice to toast that too. crack an egg into the hole. Cook for 4 minutes, Flip with a spatula- the bread and egg and the round piece, and cook 2 minutes more.

    Serve with bacon or sausage, OJ, and a flower- you will never be forgotten!  

  12. chocolate chips to pancake batter, or dried fruit (dried berries, dried apricots, raisins, dried apples, etc), or fresh fruit or frozen blueberries.  

    STUFFED PANCAKES

    Cherry pie filling or others

    whipped cream

    pancakes, 2 per stuffed pancake

    cherries

    Take cherry pie filling and put it between 2 pancakes, kind of like a sandwich, then take whip cream and put it on top w/ a few cherries.

    No syrup required.

    For those cherry haters in the house make sure you have other canned fruits to choose from and plenty of whip cream.

    Can cut the pancakes into separate parts, to make 1 pancake look like 2 pcs of cake but that takes time.

    Eat  & enjoy!

    OVER NIGHT OATMEAL

    Mix:

    1 C oatmeal

    1 1/2 C milk

    1/2 C apple juice

    1/2 -1 C dried fruit

    Let sit overnight in fridge. In morning it only takes a few min to warm.

    CHEESY POUFS

    1 (10 ounce) can refrigerated flaky biscuits (like Hungry Jack)

    1 (5 ounce) can refrigerated flaky biscuits

    2 cups diced ham

    2 cups shredded cheese (any kind you like)

    Separate each biscuit into 3 thinner biscuits. Lay each biscuit piece over a mini-muffin pan cup. Press each biscuit into the cup like a pie crust. Fill each cup with ham and top with cheese.

    Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from pans immediately and serve warm.

    Yield: 45 poufs

    Variation: Instead of ham, use crumbled sausage or bacon

    Fake French Toast

    2 eggs

    1 TBS water

    1 pkt Splenda or 1 TB sugar

    dash of cinnimon

    Beat the eggs (by hand is fine) in a small bowl. Add the rest and beat some more. Spray a small fry pan with non-stick spray. Heat on medium high until a drop of water would sizzle. Pour eggs into pan and cover. Cook until set. (Covering the pan makes this light and fluffy.)

    Serve immediately with a little no sugar syrup ...optional..i haven't used it.  

  13. If you can't cook, scrambled eggs, toast and coffee or orange juice is probably the easiest thing to "cook" for breakfast.  Scrambled eggs: Break open a few eggs into a bowl (toss the shells in trash), beat/stir them up good with a fork. On top of stove, heat a frying pan with a splash of cooking oil in it (canola oil, vegetable oil, olive oil, whatever oil they have on hand, so the eggs don't burn and stick to the pan). When the pan is fairly hot and sizzly, pour the eggs in and stir them up constantly with a spatula. You can add chopped onions or chopped green peppers or mushrooms or a combination of those, or anything you guys like such as cheese, to the eggs while they are scrambling/cooking, for a pick up on taste. The eggs should only take a minute to cook. Pop slices of bread into toaster oven, toast them, when done butter and jam or jelly on them. How much easier can that be for a non-cook?

    If you are making pancakes, per your question literally. Assuming you already know how to make pancakes. Add fresh fruit, blueberries, chopped peaches, or some apple chunks. Delicious pancakes.  

  14. pancakes you can add chocolate chips to them and that is good

    french toast

    French Toast Recipe

    This basic French toast recipe can be modified and enhanced by adding cinnamon, nutmeg, orange zest -- even rum or brandy!

    Prep Time: 15 minutes

    Cook Time: 20 minutes

    Ingredients:

    4 eggs

    1 cup milk

    2 tsp sugar

    8 slices regular white bread

    ½ tsp pure vanilla extract

    2 Tbsp butter

    Preparation:

    Pre-heat oven to 200°F.

    Beat eggs thoroughly. Whisk in sugar, milk and vanilla.

    Pour the custard mixture into a shallow glass dish. An inch deep should be fine.

    Heat your griddle to medium-low, and melt the butter on it.

    Soak a couple of slices of bread (but only as many your griddle can accomodate at once) in the custard while you count to ten. Flip them over and repeat.

    Carefully remove the soaked slices from the custard, letting the excess liquid drain into the dish, and transfer the bread to the griddle. Flip when the bottoms are golden brown. When the other sides are also golden brown, remove from the griddle.

    Serve French toast right away, or transfer it to a dish in the oven to keep warm.

    Serves 4 people.
