Breakfast is the first meal you take to start your day. It is quite essential for one to eat breakfast, for it energizes your body, especially when you have been through a deep slumber. It really depends on which kind of people, if you are to think of what breakfast usually consists of. May it be pancakes, fried sunny side up eggs, hotdogs, pan de sal or even just a sip of coffee would be enough to get you going.
But for me, breakfast wouldn't be the same without fried rice or sangag in Tagalog. It's leftover rice from the past evening, then fried with garlic and a little bit of seasoning. It goes with fried eggs, dried fish or even salted eggs. If you are lucky enough, you can buy lumpiang shanghai or tortang talong from your neighbor selling breakfast items. By the way, I'm not a coffee fan. I'm used to ice cold softdrinks in the morning. I am a Call Center agent and morning for me is like ending the day. But honestly speaking, I really am not into coffee. I'd rather have tea or hot chocolate in the morning.
There's so many to choose from for your breakfast. Arroz Caldo, sopas, sausages, tapa or even spaghetti. Yes, we Filipinos are already used to having spaghetti for breakfast.
But regardless of what you eat, just make sure that you'll still have some space left in your stomach for the lunch ahead. We know that eating too much maybe harmful to our health. It may even lead to obesity. What matters is, before going to school or work, you are already charged for the day ahead.
How about you? What is your usual breakfast?
I usually eat heavy meals on my breakfast, and a coffee should not be missed too.
