This meal looks good to me, does it to you?

[Jules]

For me if I had to select from that plate, it would be some beans, toast, and a couple of pieces of bacon. If eggs were included, they’d be scrambled. Just saw the mushrooms, they’d be in the eggs.

 

[Murrmurr]

Frank, toast is top left in the photo on a separate plate.

Toast is on a separate plate upper left in the pic

Oh. I thought that was French Toast.

 

[MrPants]

Oh. I thought that was French Toast.

Actually, it may be ... has that look but French toast & all that food ... Oh Man!!

 

[Bella]

Oh. I thought that was French Toast.

Huh, maybe it is, but wait, where's the syrup?

 

[January]

FAR too big for me.

and I don't much like cooked eggs - which is unfortunate as so many cafe breakfasts here include some version of them

I would have the tomatoes, mushrooms, baked beans and one piece of bacon, perhaps one piece of toast. No more.

 

[gruntlabor]

Way too brown .

Generally, Americans don't eat beans for breakfast. The eggs & bacon look perfect. I like the yolk a little runny. Makes a yummy dip for the bacon and toast.

Wait, where's the toast? Under the beans?

And the jam. Where's the jam? Or the marmalade.
And where are the potatoes?
I've never had tomatoes for breakfast.
But I think it looks good. I like the beans. I'd just eat a little, then warm it up later and start again.
It reminds me in a way of a Cobb salad

A ploughman's lunch is just a posh name for bread and cheese.

I know. I'd still like to try one, though. And in the UK. I could put one together myself, but I'd prefer to try one over there.

 

[LadyEmeraude]

Wow! That’s a lot of food. Is it meant for one person? I’d eat the bacon and beans.

I got the pic off a random food site.

 

[LadyEmeraude]

@LadyEmeraude ........regarding the black things on top. At first I thought portabella 'shrooms w/may be a sausage patty on top, but now I'm not so sure.

I’m don’t know either those black things look intimidating

 

[LadyEmeraude]

To the left of the plate above the link sausage is Black/Blood Pudding. > What Does Blood Pudding Taste Like?



Frank, toast is top left in the photo on a separate plate.

I’ve always wondered what blood pudding tastes like

 

[VeggieMan]

I like those stylish napkins those nice big plates are on.

Where do you see napkins? Gosh my poor eyes, l, just got diagnosed with cataract in each eye. Meanwhile I better rest my eyes so
Tomorrow I can find the napkins lol.

Oh, ok now I see them . Thanks Veggie!

Since we’re picking this meal to pieces, I think that they’re placemats not napkins. Nice look though.

I would have chosen a teal green for my placemats and or napkins

I've never had tomatoes for breakfast.

Quite common when buying a cooked breakfast in Australia to have cooked tomatoes

 

[OneEyedDiva]

Not at all. I would never eat half cooked eggs, wouldn't touch bacon with a ten foot pole and whatever that round stuff is at the top of the plate looks too burnt for me.

 

[Nathan]

Lots of food though lol

I could eat half of that, skip lunch and eat a light dinner.

 

[Aunt Bea]

I think that it’s great to shake things up a bit for a hearty breakfast, especially the addition of vegetables.

Leftover sweet corn cut from the cob and fried in butter or bacon fat is nice, summer squash, fried green tomatoes, etc…

I enjoy leftover kielbasa and pierogies as part of a hearty breakfast or Italian hot sausage and garlic toast.

I wouldn’t have a problem with good baked beans instead of the basic canned beans in tomato sauce.

I would like to try ‘jugged’ kippers, kidneys, kedgeree, etc…

What are some of the interesting items that you look forward to for a hearty breakfast, other than leftover pizza?

 

[horseless carriage]

That's a full English breakfast, right? I've always wanted to try on, but yeah, like others have said, maybe about one-quarter of that.

I've always wanted to try a ploughman's lunch, too!

A Ploughman's lunch typically consists of bread, cheese, pickled onions and, or, pickle/chutney. It's a cold meal that can be expanded to include popular additions like sliced ham, a hard-boiled egg, butter, and a side salad with items such as tomatoes, cucumber, or apple slices.

Those black things are stuffed portobello mushrooms. Way to much food for me.
I'd go for the stuffed portobello mushrooms but with a little bit of grated parmesan/ Reggiano over the ground meat. Make a salad using those cherry tomatoes with mixed greens. Now is pomegranate season so making a batch of pomegranate vinaigrette works for a tasty salad dressing.

Typically the meat is seasoned with whatever a person likes for seasoning. My personal favorite salt, black pepper, onion flakes & some minced garlic. And sauté the meat & seasonings together before stuffing then baking the mushrooms. Before the mushrooms are done baking that is when the cheese is sprinkled over them to melt.

There are a lot of ways to make stuffed portobello mushrooms just copy this to get recipes

[Furryanimal]

Apart from the mushrooms
I had a slightly smaller version of that in the pub yesterday.
