Sunday Breakfast...out!


Today my bro treated us to Sunday breakfast at Kapiolani Coffee Shop. This was my first time dining out since the sushi a few weeks ago, and first time eating out for breakfastI realize now that in Hawaii it is very difficult to make healthier choices at certain places, especially for breakfast. Most people in Hawaii think of breakfast as rice, eggs, and Spam! The ONLY healthy choice on the menu was a papaya. I HATE papayas.

My bro had fried rice, eggs, corned beef hash and 4 mini banana pancakes. Mom had Oxtail soup (their specialty) and rice. So I decided on 2 slices of wheat toast, 2 scrambled eggs, portuguese sausage (ate 2 pcs.) and 3 mini-banana pancakes.Had I known the toast would be pre-buttered, I would have told them hold the butter. But ah well. It was a yummy breakfast!

My bro tried to trick me into eating another pancake! He said take your half of the pancakes (there were 8), "You need more carbs." So I took it off his plate and he goes, "Hahaha that was a test, you should've said no!" So I tried to return it to the main pancake plate and he kept fighting me with his fork to keep the pancake on my plate. :P I ended up not eating it and Mom took it home for Maui to eat.

I want to play the Wii but my bro is camped out in front of the big screen watching Tiger Woods golf. :P I'm supposed to go to a friend's daughter's birthday party but not sure if my bro will let us borrow the car 'cause Mom pissed him off about the old lady he's dating (she's 44, he's 27). LOL!!!

Tonight I plan to try to cook chicken burritos (chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, cilantro, sour cream)! :) Hope it turns out okay!

Breakfast can be tricky! And oatmeal can be so boring. :(

Does your grocery store sell Jimmy Dean stuff? They've put out a line called D-Lights (or D-lites, I forget). The croissant one is still terrible but they have an english muffin with turkey sausage, egg whites and cheese that is pretty yummy.

Let me know how the chicken burritos turn out. I've been cooking with ground turkey more lately. I made turkey tacos and they were pretty tasty. I have a co-worker that is all into healthy cooking. She made a mexican lasagna with ground turkey and 2% cheese and it was really good. Go to PioneerWoman.com and look under the cooking section for Pastor Ryan's stuff. Just cut the recipe down! It calls for 3 pounds of ground beef. Apparently he was feeding an army!
