25 Quick Breakfast Ideas and More Required!

On the way home from Church at the start of Autumn, I announced to the children that I would like them to think of some different breakfast ideas for us three to eat on weekdays mornings. It seemed to me that we were only eating the same two or three dishes, the things that we turn to time and time again that we all like, or that most of us like. I wanted something different, something to tempt our taste buds and I wanted to keep the bank manager happy too!

As it is quite cold in the mornings, I wanted something warm for them and I to eat before they head off out into the cold, but it also needed to be something that was fairly quick to prepare and/or eat, as we try to squeeze a lot into our mornings with Scripture Study and showers and taking our daily Instagram Selfies and of course the Children trying not to get out of bed until the last possible second...

So, we started a list of breakfast ideas that we already eat, which I've recreated below.

Blimey! We eat a huge variety of breakfasts, we could eat a different breakfast everyday for a month!

However, we're after some more ideas. We want to try some new ideas, some new breakfasts and so we're opening this up to you. What do you eat for breakfast with your family? What are your go to staples?

We're excited to know what breakfasts everyone else eats and looks forward to, especially if you have any slow cooker recipes! I've been experimenting with some over the last few weeks and have had some success...but I've also had a lot of failures! I'll have to blog them so that you can learn from my mistakes... or work out where I went wrong.
