Breakfast is probably my favorite meal of the day. I love eating. And, I love eating even more when I've got an empty stomach. For me, breakfast can happen anytime between when I awake, usually around 7 (sometimes earlier upon demand), and 11 a.m. I suppose that would technically be considered 'brunch', right?
Anyway, it's fair game to have about anything you want for breakfast. Having traveled so much, I do know that breakfast is quite different around the world depending upon the country and culture. Take a look at some of the ways folks eat that first meal from BuzzFeed! It's really cool!
This breakfast tray is a combination of flavors and textures. It's got salty, sweet, juicy, creamy, tangy, tart, crispy, crunchy. It leans towards Middle Eastern, which I love. You could add some nuts, dried fruit, like dates and apricots. And, you might even throw in a sweet pastry or chocolate.
You can change up and swap out what you put on it according to your likes. But, you should try the sauteed warm grapes with pepper and mint. Reeeeeally great! Why not surprise Mom on Mother's Day or Dad on Father's Day with this special treat in bed. Coffee, tea, maybe a mimosa or some champagne. Imagine the ecstasy! xoxo ~ally
