I’m a breakfast person! Seriously, I am one of those people who could be content with eating a big breakfast every day for the rest of my life. And, it doesn’t need to be for breakfast! Breakfast for dinner is one of my favourite meals! I’m sure there are many of you out there who feel the same way I do, so with you in mind, I have put together this list. This, Dear Reader, is 22 of the Best Winter Breakfast Recipes!

We don’t go out for breakfast very often. In fact, the only time we have breakfast at a restaurant or diner is when we are on the road somewhere. But, I used to be quite the regular at greasy diners for weekend brunch a few years back. And, every time I did, I always looked forward to something hearty and filling.

Nowadays, we tend to eat breakfast at home. Since we are both retired, we have time to prepare a full breakfast every morning, but we don’t. Most days, breakfast for me comes after my second cup of coffee and usually consists of a slice of toast or a granola bar. A full breakfast is usually reserved for dinner rather than a morning meal. In fact, Wednesday night is most commonly breakfast for dinner night in our home. Here are 22 breakfast recipes that I could eat any time of the day!
