I had waffles for dinner. Yummy, buttery, sweet crispy waffles, drowning in maple syrup. That’s such a treat.
Anyone else like eating breakfast at dinner occasionally? Pancakes, eggs, bacon?
I like an omelet for dinner from time to time, and I’ve had cereal when I was too lazy to take a dinner out of the freezer and nuke it.
Once a month I meet friends for dinner at a local IHOP - sometimes I order the pancakes
The missus and I will do this 2-3 times per year.
I don’t usually eat breakfast, so it’s a treat.
I once subjected my wife to ham 'n eggs 'n fried spuds for dinner, oh, around 1983. She was of the opinion that breakfast for dinner was a truly bad idea. I’ve been shy of it ever since. Not that I wouldn’t do it when she’s away, just that I’d prefer a grilled steak and spinach. Or takeout pizza.
Waffles and syrup? SWEET stuff for dinner? That, I couldn’t do.
Sweet is for just before bed, way late at night. Not for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
Oh yeah! We do breakfast for dinner from time to time.
Usually waffles, maple syrup & bacon. Yum.
When I was growing up we quite often had eggs & toast for supper, but I think that had a lot to do with us being poor. Eggs & bread were cheap & filling. So I acquired the habit early. Now it doesn’t faze me at all and I really like breakfast for dinner.
I can eat breakfast for any meal of the day. Pancakes (with real maple syrup and butter, please): yum, yum. With fruit, either on top or on the side. Ditto waffles or French toast, but it’s gotta be the regular kind with regular bread slices, not those ultra-thick ones. Eggs come in so many delicious styles: poached, scrambled, over easy, omelettes. And then there’s eggs Benedict. And we haven’t even touched the variety of meats to go with: bacon, scrapple, ham, lox. Fritattas. Bagels. Muffins. Granola. Irish oatmeal.
Why, yes, I am overweight. Why do you ask?
Neither of us eats breakfast. Once in awhile we like to have bacon and eggs, toast and hash browns for supper. (Well, what passes for frozen hash browns - the bits off of french fries that were too small to put in the french fry bag.)
Me too. I remember that on the nights when mom gave us pancakes for supper, I was just overjoyed, it was such a wonderful treat! She never seemed very happy on those evenings, and it wasn’t until I was an adult that I realized she was doing so when she couldn’t afford anything else, and she felt bad that she was not giving us a “proper” meal.
When my dad is left to make dinner and he doesn’t feel like making a proper meal he’ll make us pancakes. I love when he does, I could eat pancakes any time of the day.
Yeah, I rarely eat “breakfast” foods for breakfast-usually I’m not that hungry in the mornings. So I LOVE a good breakfast-dinner, or going out for brunch.
There’s a local restaurant, right across the street from my cousins’ house, that we went to after their First Communions. A real old-fashioned brunch, with omelets made to order, bacon, home fries, sausage, waffles (with syrup OR with strawberries and whipped cream), ham, etc.
Yeah, but usually when the date on the carton of eggs with 10 remaining is approaching. My wife would rather spend the $3 (!!!) for a loaf of Texas Toast for French toast than just chuck the eggs and buy a fresh dozen (89-99 cents).
Oh, hell yeah…the wife and I do this once or twice a month. Waffles, scrambled eggs, bacon, toast…the whole nine. Yuuuuuummy!
I am another “don’t eat breakfast” type so love a hot restaurant brunch or the mixed grill at the Paragon or a home cooked breakfast for dinner.
We don’t do it chez kaylas, these days, Michaela being the unadventurous eater she is. Before her advent, however, it was not uncommon.
We do periodically have Loco Moko for breakfast, oddly enough (rice, hamburger patty, beef gravy, with a fried egg on top). And because Michaela always has hers sans egg, it could be argued that she likes to have dinner for breakfast.
When I was a lad, we would sometimes dine on canned corned beef hash with eggs baked on top (Mom spread the hash on a jelly roll sheet, broke a dozen eggs over it and popped it in the oven), which counts as a breakfast for dinner, or waffles with creamed tuna fish on top, which doesn’t.
Oh, it’s not that I don’t eat breakfast, it’s just I’ll usually eat something very light, like yogurt, cereal, a banana. Maybe a pastry, but that’s it.
That’s so funny - tonight as I was making waffles for dinner, I thought to myself “you should start a Doper poll and see who else is making breakfast for dinner!”
So, yeah. Waffles with dark Maple syrup (Grade B - it really is yummier, just like Alton Brown says!) and thick-cut bacon. Mmmmmm…
We had apple pancakes tonight. 
Pretty much every Friday we’re home we eat some sort of breakfast for dinner: omelets, fritata, french toast, mock souffle… I don’t know why, it just became a tradition.
OTOH, quite often breakfast will be reheated chili or pizza.
We usually don’t eat breakfast at my house, so breakfast for dinner isn’t that unusual. We try to have it at least once a month. We have eggs, bacon and biscuits. Sometimes we have waffles. The frozen kind, sadly.
Can I come over to one of y’all’s houses for brupper?
It’s pretty common in my family, and I still do it now and then. Sometimes it just tastes so good, so late in the day.
We had eggs for dinner every Sunday night when I was a kid. Never thought of it as breakfast for dinner. It was either soft boiled or poached eggs with vegemite toast soldiers, or omelettes when we were a bit more grown up. I think that this was just nursery food though, not flipping the meal schedule around. When neither of us feel like anything heavy now I’ll do omelettes.
Now, a full English breakfast for dinner is definitely a treat I indulge in sometimes!
