I am so excited to try out the gluten free pancakes :). I am definitely going to make a bunch and freeze them like you do. </p> <p>Have you tried baking the pankcakes and then cutting them in squares? I saw a pancake recipe on Pinterest and thought was a great idea for when you want to serve pankcakes for a large group and don't have a giant griddle. </p> <p>Thanks again...you are the best! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-los-favorite-breakfast-solids#post-432424 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 23:36:09 +0000 Mrs. Pen 432424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>-scrambled eggs<br /> -sausage<br /> -any type of fruit: banana, pear, berries, grapefruit, etc<br /> - sprouted wheat toast<br /> - oatmeal with applesauce and cinnamon<br /> - quinoa with fruit<br /> - banana "pancakes"<br /> - coconut flour pancakes<br /> - green smoothies... although not a solid<br /> - the egg muffins Mrs. Bee posted :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-los-favorite-breakfast-solids#post-432419 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 23:31:59 +0000 HLK208 432419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS loooves pancakes and bacon.

My LO is the same way, loves her carbs so the frittata was my way of putting some veggies and protein into the routine. FYI, she didn't love it right away, it took about a week for her to warm up to it, but now she scarfs it down.</p> <p>For the pancakes, I sort of improvised my own recipe. I start with 2 ripe bananas and mash them up, followed by whatever other fruit is a getting too ripe diced up. I mix in a couple of eggs, and I use Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Pancake mix and mix in half a bag. Then I add a little of whatever milk I have in the fridge (rice, flax, coconut) and I whip it up with my immersion blender. It's not very scientific, I add more mix or milk to get the right consistency and make a ton of pancakes in single service sizes and then freeze them for daily use :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-los-favorite-breakfast-solids#post-432257 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 22:01:45 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 432257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>scrambled eggs, bananas, and fruit smoothie. that's all she's had so far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-los-favorite-breakfast-solids#post-432256 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 22:00:40 +0000 sandy 432256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@prettylizy: that sounds so delicious! I love that you can cook a big batch to freeze and reheat in the morning. Thanks so much!</p> <p>I would also love to get your gluten free pancake recipe...or do you buy a mix somewhere? I want to give LO some more variety and I am really trying to limit carbs (she is a fruit and carb monster though). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-los-favorite-breakfast-solids#post-432134 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 21:03:33 +0000 prettylizy 432134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sandy: I grate 2 or 3 carrots, 2-3 parsnips and 2 zucchinis and put them in a frying pan with a little butter (or oil or whatever you use) and saute that mixture until it's softened down. Let that cool a bit (you don't want to scramble your eggs when you mix it together). I whisk up 6-8 eggs then put the veggie mixture in a rectangular casserole dish. Pour the egg over top and mix it in with the veg. Bake at 350 for 10-30 minutes until it sets up and is firm. Let it cool, and cut into squares. I freeze them in the squares and pull out one or two every morning for her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-los-favorite-breakfast-solids#post-432114 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 20:43:52 +0000 sandy 432114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@prettylizy: I would love to get your recipe for the frittata please!!!

I pretty much make her the same breakfast everyday:</p> <p>Scrambled egg, oatmeal, English muffin and some fruit. Some days she eats all her egg and toast, other days she eats all her oatmeal and egg...and she eats a ton of fruit so I give it to her at the end of the meal - strawberries, cantaloupe, banana </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-los-favorite-breakfast-solids#post-431569 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 15:14:56 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 431569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Scrambled eggs, yogurt, pancakes, Cheerios, fruit fruit fruit, toaster waffles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-los-favorite-breakfast-solids#post-431409 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 13:55:45 +0000 T.H.O.U. 431409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yogurtand banana plus whatever daycare has (usually a starch).

(he's a big breakfast eater.) </p> <p>Now we vary it up a little, but he still gets his eggs and yogurt every morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-los-favorite-breakfast-solids#post-431099 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 11:56:39 +0000 brownie 431099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>BACON.

I usually give him a protein and a fruit, and then a carb if I'm feeling lazy :)<br /> Proteins:<br /> - Sausage or meatball<br /> - Cold cuts<br /> - Yogurt or cottage cheese<br /> - Nut butter (almond or peanut) on bread or wrap or fruit</p> <p>Fruit:<br /> - Banana, apple, grape, pear, berries... whatever<br /> - Prune (LO has at least one a day, often two)</p> <p>Carbs:<br /> - Whole grain waffle, wheat bread, whole wheat tortilla/wrap</p> <p>Also, sometimes I'll throw some fruit and tofu and yogurt into the blender and make him a smoothie and let him drink it with a straw.<br /> Finally, while these are sort of the "breakfast-y" foods that we do often with LO, he doesn't care if we give him "non-traditionally-breakfast-y" foods, so he often ends up with beans, olives, peas, carrots, etc. </p> <p>I think this morning LO had some Asian pear, prunes, carrot chips, peanuts, and dried green beans. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-los-favorite-breakfast-solids#post-430684 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 09:44:29 +0000 pelikila 430684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Muffins, scones, scrambled eggs, fruit, pancakes or waffles, bagel, sausage links, toast, etc. Basically, anything that can be cut up really small. We've also added Plum Organics Morning Mashups to the rotation. It is an oatmeal that my son loves. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-los-favorite-breakfast-solids#post-430674 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 09:39:51 +0000 chopsuey 430674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She loves scrambled eggs, sausage links, strawberries, raspberries and pancakes for breakfast! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-los-favorite-breakfast-solids#post-430665 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 09:36:13 +0000 autumnlove 430665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm trying to give LO more solids in the morning!
