As a late-comer to the feast, I'm sure I'll not surprise anyone by heading straight for the porridge corner. But none of your rolled oats, thank you; proper oatmeal, steeped for at least an hour before cooking, unless it's done in the slow-cooker (timed to switch on three hours before breakfast). And for heaven's sake, none of this sweet stuff on it! Salt (in moderation) or even tamari if you must.
"Breakfast like a King, lunch like a commoner, sup like a peasant." (Old Scots proverb.)

I have tried so hard to like honey, but failed. I like the look of it, I even like the sound of the word. The idea of toast and honey sounds wonderful, but as soon as I detect the hint of honey in anything, bleeghhhh! I will take it with hot water and lemon if I have a sore throat but pull faces while I`m doing it. Very childish!  And as for yoghurt, don`t even go there!! |

I love tea, honey and lemon. I am off it for the moment, but during last Winter I had a lot of it.
I don't like honey, but an developing a taste for it lately.
In health shops they have now honey from S Africa, Nigeria and other exotic places. They taste completely different than normal honey. There is a good expensive honey from Australia that is good for fighting cold. I forgot how it is called.

I love both honey and yogurt, preferably together.
I dug out my ancient slow cooker with the idea of making porridge in it, but have lost the instructions. I may just try putting some oatmeal and water in it, switching it on and seeing what happens. It doesn't have a timer or even different temperatures. I used to use it quite a bit but have neglected it for ...oh, years probably. I was inspired by having a very good meal recently from one belonging to a friend.
This should probably be in What's that burning?

And as for yoghurt, don`t even go there!!
Plain yoghurt is wonderful Mort! Try a goodly dollop on a hot vegetable chillie or a curry, or garlic yoghurt with pilaff and roast almonds in fact dollop it on anything. The Greek stuff is the best but very high fat. Delish on breakfast cereals as well (although I always buy low fat). Yoghurt, honey and walnuts is totally out of this world! |

Anna, I think I`m probably in the minority with my `yoghurt bleeeghhh!` stance. I can manage plain yoghurt as long as it`s heavily disguised e.g. onion raitha, or incorporated into something spicy, but that`s about as far as I go. I`m just a yoghurt wuss! |

I fear Yoghurt Bleegh may be taken up as a recipe suggestion by Dr Gillian Phibes Macheath. Or is he a panelist on newsnight review?
