Foodie Friday: Breakfast in bed

I’m getting spoiled. For the past several weeks, with the exception of when I was out of town, my almost-12yo has brought me breakfast in bed on Saturday mornings. (*Note to parents of girls: He’ll be available for marriage in just another decade or so! 😉 )

Seriously, though, he’s a keeper. Since I seldom eat bread products anymore, my breakfasts are usually protein-oriented. His favorite breakfast creation is what he dubs “The Inside of a Hot Pocket,” where he tears up a few slices of ham or turkey lunch meat, adds some shredded cheese, microwaves it until it’s hot & melted and serves it with a fork. It’s like a ham & cheese Hot Pocket without the pocket! 🙂

Last Saturday, he brought me a leftover grilled hamburger patty topped with melted Colby Jack shreds. It might not have been my first choice in breakfast meats, but the intention was so thoughtful, on his part.

Next, I just need to teach him how to make coffee so that I can enjoy my luxurious breakfasts with something other than a glass of ice water. 😉  Teeheehee
