A Rich, Deliciously Satisfying Collection of Breakfast RecipesI grew up with hot buttermilk biscuits, gravy, meat, eggs, fried potatoes, and sometimes fried apples on the breakfast table every single morning. Over the years I acquired a valued collection of my own favorite recipes. They are a whisper from days gone by. A trip to the past when breakfast was the most important meal of the day. The first meal of the morning was a celebration of life and the gift of a new day. Breakfast was a time for families to congregate and fortify one another for the hectic, uncertain day that lay ahead.Most of the recipes in this book are high calorie-high fat recipes. You can control the fat content in your food by substituting ingredients when you cook at home. You have no such control over the food you eat in restaurants. The following quote sums up my thoughts exactly: ?Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper.? -- Adelle Davis (1904-1974). Therefore, if you are going to eat one good meal today, make it breakfast.?A Rich, Deliciously Satisfying Collection of Breakfast Recipes includes: gourmet coffee, (International coffee, Christmas coffee, Irish, viennese, cappuccino, hazelnut cafe-au-lait, French vanilla, etc.) creamers, hot chocolate (French, Mayan, Mexican, etc.), and tea (apricot mint, orange, lemon almond, etc.) recipes. Fruit drinks, cider, and smoothie recipes. Soft drinks, (root beer, ginger ale, and a Coca-Cola? clone recipe), soda drinks, and punch recipes.
