Talk about Breakfast!

Waking up hungry is not really the best way to start anyone's day.  I woke up today with a gnawing hunger that can only be filled by a big breakfast!

Normally, I am not a big fan of eating breakfast as I am too busy for it or I am sleeping in and missing it all together! I know that it's an age-old saying that "Breakfast is the most important meal of your day." (I can actually hear my old Psych Prof. Sir J saying this to me back during my DLSU days when we had that psych field trip.) Unfortunately for me, I only eat breakfast on days that I am off-work or school or feel like making breakfast. S.O. is not really big on breakfast too. He's a weird man as he munches through the day and eats his big meals during the evening and still. . .he's not 400 lbs! I swear, that man can eat anything and he still do not gain weight! He's still as lanky as the first day I have met him only he says that he has put on 50 lbs since we started dating. . . oh well. . .  you be the judge!
My Significant Other
Anyhoo, while my S.O. sleeps away, I am up right now making brunch. I don't work until 4 p.m. today but for some reason I really got to eat. . . lol!

And so, I have decided that for today I will be making crispy bacon, strawberry pancakes (as I have over a pint and a half of strawberries), and over-hard eggs. 

I like my bacon extra crispy. I have tried a lot of methods to get extra crispy bacon but the best method that I have tried is oven-baking it. 

Here're the step into making your own extra crispy bacon:

1) Put bacon slices in an oven-proof pan
2) Heat oven to 400F and put pan in the oven as soon as it is turned on. No pre-heating needed. 
3) Cook for about 7 - 10 minutes or until desired crispness is achieved. 

My strawberry pancakes are just your standard regular pancake mix plus 2 cups of sliced or chopped fresh strawberries and drizzled with maple syrup. I have a recipe for fluffy pancakes but I'll write about it some other time. 

So, there you have it, one of my favourite breakfast is ready! I hope you enjoy yours too. . . 

Moody Pinay Foodie's Brunch for the day!
P.S.
This "Breakfast" can actually be enjoyed anytime of the day. I, sometimes, eat pancakes for dinner! lol! ^_^ Enjoy!
