I love a good breakfast on a Saturday morning, my favorite would probably be buttery scrambled egg, crispy streaky bacon in toasted english muffins. Mmmmmm

Due to my diet I have been having low fat yoghurt with strawberries during the week and it is surprisingly filling

I like scrambled eggs on granary bread with smoked salmon, or a couple of butcher's sausages, thick cut smoked back bacon, fried mushrooms, fried egg,grilles tomatoes, baked beans and 2 slices of toast. All washed down with a big mug of tea.

I love a cooked breakfast, but haven't had one for such a long time. The scaremongers have put me off too - I think of my arteries getting clogged up, and don't bother ! I usually have porridge or some toast and marmalade, followed by coffee.

If you grill most of the components on a cooked breaky, it is surprisingly good for you! Grilled bacon, sausage, mushroom, tomatoe, poached egg, beans and normal toast.

Summer would be fruit and winter would be croissants but mainly it's a slice of toast.

My current favourite is two sandwiches with cold, thinly cut, cooked meat and a dash of brown sauce.

I also like soup for breakfast in the winter, or a couple of pastries such as Pain au Raisins.

Always with a yoghurt and glass of fruit juice.

Absolutely detest most of the fatty stuff that goes into a Full English and would never have one.

Couple of warm pancakes with either maple/golden syrup, crunchy peanut butter or nutella, then topped with chopped banana (A different topping for each pancake! )

I've started to cook the full english once in a while because to OH likes it but to me it's a main meal so I do it at lunch time.

Full English, but only when I'm staying in a hotel, because it's too much of a hassle to get everything in for just me!

pain au raisin is pretty heavy on the saturated fat tbh, if you grilled all the elements of a full English, it would probably have less saturated fat than a couple of pain au raisins.

Delicious! When we went to paris recently, our hotel served an amazing buffet breakfast which included pancakes with a whole variety of toppings. I often opted for blueberry jam on one, syrup on another and nutella and peanut butter on the third, it was scrumptious!

Freshly squeezed orange juice, proper coffee and eggs benedict. Preferably eaten in New York but I'll take it anywhere!

The pain au raisins are a treat I have maybe once a week at most. I'd never have them regularly.

As for a full English, I literally detest almost everything in it, so grilling to reduce the fat would not entice me one bit.

I am not really a breakfast fan to be honest.

I'd rather wait and have a nice lunch

OH will occasionally make his version of a fry-up (scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, spaghetti hoops, fresh bread) or do sausage sandwiches but normally breakky is wholemeal toast, fruit and yoghurt for me
