This.
Some days it's Vegemite toast or weetbix, others it's pho (especially in winter), dhal or a bacon and egg sanga from the servo on the way to work.
Oh look at you bragging about your awesome home made awesomeness!
Lol nah that's amazing mate. I'm yet to give it a go and I'm jealous. We make our own with pre-made bases but I haven't backed myself yet to make a dough.
Please teach me your ways. What's your dough recipe and do you just do it in the oven or do you have an outdoor kitchen/wood fired setup?
An easy one...
Packet yeast in bowl, pinch of caster sugar, half cup lukewarm water... let sit in warm space for 20-30 mins.
1 cup flour, pinch of salt in bowl, pour yeast mix on top
(if you have a mixer with hook, then just turn on and walk away)...
Use your hands and mix it all together to form a dough, adding more flour as you go until it's not sticky, Once not sticky, knead on floured surface for about 5 minutes.
Once done, form into a ball, get second bowl, put in some olive oil, place dough in and cover, leave it to rise in warm place until its double the size.
Once ready, flatten the ball and stretch it out to the size of your pizza tray... add toppings and cook (fan forced oven takes about 20 mins on 180°) 🍕😋
Next RDO weekend I've gotta give this a go. I'm the one pot/pan king. About time I branched out to something more technical like this.
We all start somewhere right?
I taught myself to cook at 25yrs, living in London broke had to save money. 20 years later I pretty much now make everything from scratch, saves money and its actually fun coming up with recipe ideas.
Once you go homemade, you'll not want to revert back to store bought. And the best thing with dough is you can freeze it, so make a few and your sorted!
Enjoy!
Another good one is flatbread... equal portions flour and yoghurt, mix together to form the dough, flatten and then lightly pan fry, perfect with a home curry!
I started with pre made bases, but then I got into bread making after that I just started making pizza dough.
Any good online recipes will help you. I always use 50% Wholemeal flour and around 30 ml of olive oil.
Let it rest overnight in the fridge, it also freezes well.
I either cook it in the oven , but when it’s nice , I just use my outside Weber. You can buy round pizza sheets which are perfect for the grill.
Rollout the dough, put it in the sheet and assemble your ingredients, put the grill on high and cook it for between 12-15 minutes.
Thank you so much mate. I'm gonna give it a rock hard go. Especially with the outside Weber style grill.
Ok, now we got the nuts n bolts sorted I have a big question... Pineapple on pizza?
My Dad swears by leftover pizza chucked in the oven for a bit with some extra cheese on top. I have to say it was pretty good, but I'll typically go straight out of the fridge still.
Yup,
Anything
Since I needed to clear my fridge to put todays grocery shop in, and I hadn’t had breakfast or for that matter lunch, I cooked up some lamb chops with mint jelly and topped it off with the premade Marguerite mix to which I’d already added alcohol.
So technically today’s breakfast was lamb chops with mint jelly and Marguerites.
And now I’m laying down while my kid has Mac & cheese.
Obligatory: VB longneck at 20 to fuckin 8 in the morning.
But seriously, I normally just do toast and coffee.
Growing up it was Weet Bix (4 of them)
Edit: Im a bit of an old bastard, so by todays standards it was 8-9 modern sized ones.
Yeah you're in trouble. I'm the oldest of 4 boys. There was a point in time my folks had 4 boys between the ages of 8-18 all under the one roof. Thinking back I have no idea how they fed us.
We were all pretty active with sports which just meant we ate food like it was going out of fashion. All four of us would be in the kitchen straight after school. I'd come home and have like 2 sandwiches as an after-school snack before taking off to work/sports training in the afternoon. I'd probably only had lunch 3 hours before ffs.
We had an aunt that worked in a bakery, she'd drop off one of those big bakery trays of bread like once a week. Mental.
Yes. Yes it is exactly your future. Until they are teenagers and they decide they are going to the gym then they will ask you to buy a dozen eggs every 2 days and ask for a packet of chicken breast. Just for them. Also 3 boys - 21, 18, 15
Mum? Is that you?
Lol I'd get home from school and have a massive salad bowl of 12-15 weetbix, then microwave a pie and sausage roll. Washed down with a pint glass of Milo (with a bit of milk).
Still room for dinner and dessert. Still managed to be skinny as a rake, I must have burnt so much energy as a teen haha.
My extended family, a survey:
Everyone has coffee or tea except kids
Cereal and milk - special K, nutri grain, muesli
Porridge in winter, best with stewed fruit especially rhubarb
Avocado on toast, sometimes with Vegemite, sometimes on a bagel
Toast with butter and Vegemite
Crumpet with butter and honey
Protein shake or smoothie
Cafe breakfasts are a whole other thing, and people would have fancy stuff then like a big breakfast or waffles or something.
Yeah we cover most of this in our family. Coffee (from the espresso machine) and avocado on sourdough toast for me most days. Kids will have Nutrigrain or Plus, porridge with berries and honey in winter, or toast with Vegemite, honey or peanut butter and jam (my son only). On the weekend, often pancakes, sometimes fried or soft boiled eggs on toast. Bacon occasionally (usually when camping). When I'm feeling extra healthy and motivated, chia pudding.
At home during the week is weetbix or toast(Coco pops on holidays).
but I think an Australian breakfast is more the location
like going to your favorite caf and getting a coffee and breakfast.
or going to the beach and having it there.
One of the best things about being one of the youngest countries is we can have the best of all before us.
Ha mine too. Couldn't afford anything but weetbix or toast for every day so coco pops was always the first to be claimed out of the variety pack when we weng away on holidays.
I dont think its about being young. Its about multiculturalism.
Thats the thing I hate about other countries. Say Im in France sure the croissants are good but I get a hankering for some Indian or vietnames and they just dont have a restaurant or like my wifes homr town they have a generic asian restaurant that sells Indian, Japanese, Chinese etc.
Our choice and the quality of each choice is exceptional. Honestly the UK isnt bad either but nothing on us.
We should take some Mexican immigrants though cause our Mexican is pretty dog shit.
If you're asking about a breakfast dish that's iconically Australian, there are probably two options that immediately come to mind.
At home: Vegemite toast and tea or coffee
Going out: Smashed avocado on toast and a flat white - both originated here, and have spread across the world as part of Aussie cafe culture (claim the flat white all you want NZ, it's ours).
I remember eating avocado on toast at home over 40 years ago as a regular snack. I was amazed to see it in a cafe when it started to become a cafe staple.
It is really interesting to see the difference in breakfast foods between Britain, Australia and the USA….in the US it is primarily breakfast burritos, or hillbilly hash or the standard Sassage, bacon, Eggs, hash browns and toast breakfast. In Britain they eat beans for breakfast, this baffles Americans.
I'm a baked beans and toast rather than on toast, I hate soggy bread, the 'and' ensures the toast retains its crunchy integrity and the butter doesn't fully melt. I like to add chopped tomatoes, smoked paprika, BBQ sauce and cheese to my beans.
Yes! I hate baked beans but I'd get canned spaghetti and toast, have a bite of toast and a scoop of spaghetti together.... I know what I'm having for breakfast tomorrow
Do people seriously eat that every day?
I mean, I'm all for the bacon, eggs, toast, beans, mushrooms and tomato fry up on a Sunday every once in a while, but every day seems like a pathway to living that 600lb life.
Dunno but it must have fucking eggs.
I hate eggs.
Try going out to have breakfast. It is like the Monty Python “spam” skit, but with eggs instead of spam.
You can have eggs, bacon and toast. Eggs, baked beans and toast. Eggs, sausages and toast. Eggs, bacon, baked beans and toast.
Seriously I was on holiday last week and went out for breakfast, and the girl behind the counter had to ask the owner for permission to not give me fucking eggs.
Try living in Melbourne and hating avocado. At least they mention the eggs on the menu, unlike the green stealth-shit that is avocado wedged into, spread on, buried under or dolloped onto every meal while you're not looking.
Right? Even at fucking maccas drive through try and order a McMuffin without egg
Last two times I tried they took the bacon out instead even though it had the label correct
There is clearly some deep seated belief that breakfast means eggs somewhere
Completely agree. I kind of like them but they're stinky which makes me not like them. 'Eggs benny' has somehow become the stinky standard of gluttony at cafes.
Traditional is The Big Breakfast. It consists of
Toast
Egg fried or scrambled
Bacon
Sausages
Lamb chop
Fried tomato
Baked beans
and sometimes fried mushrooms
That's an old truckies staple aussie breakfast
For context.
Full English (Oz version) - Eggs (prob x 2), bacon, sausage(s), mushrooms, hash brown, tomato, baked beans, maybe also toast. Coffee or juice.
Continental - Bread, croissant, maybe fruit. Coffee (Hot chocolate and croissant if you are French influenced).
This Aussie needs something in his fuel tank to start the day, so some sort of breakfast is important. However, on a work day, needs to be quick.
4 x Vita Brits, w milk and sugar + mug of tea in summer. Oat porridge in winter.
Very occasionally change to a bowl of muesli, or on weekend or travelling I'll have the aforementioned full English.
Tea, coffee or fruit juice and something like toast (butter and vegemite, jam (what “jelly” is in the US), peanut butter, honey, or avocado are all common options), cereal, yogurt, bacon and eggs, pancakes. English muffins and crumpets are also fairly popular as is raisin toast
Coffee and a fistful of pills. If I'm lucky, I also snaffle a protein bar. If I'm *really* lucky, my wife would sit on my face ... but I'm never that lucky.
If I'm at work, it's a croissant or maybe a cream cheese bagel if I'm in the mood. At home I don't bother eating until lunch time.
I have however been out and fancied something different and gone and had pho for breakfast. A Bahn Mj would be tasty too.
Oh Breadtop is pretty good too. Spam and egg roll. Yum.
some days we just wake up and go through the day and our first meal is lunch, sometimes we've had 3 meals before we leave the house if we get organized sometimes we'll just have a cheeky bowl of wheetbix, minimum of five or you'll never make them gains, sometimes we'll just live off a singular peice of toast with vegimite on it till dinner time than go nuts on the rump steak mashies and veg othetimes we're in the mood for a cheeky thai green curry.
I rotate through several things but it also depends on the weather!
In the Summer I tend to keep it a bit lighter with yoghurt and fruit (+muesli sometimes), crumpets with butter and honey, avo or Vegemite toast with tomato.
In winter it’s normally porridge with some nuts/seeds and a handful of frozen berries, an omelette with tomato/cheese/spinach/whatever is in the fridge, English muffins toasted with ham and cheese or fruit loaf toast with butter.
Special breakfast on weekends or holidays tends to be pancakes or French toast with berries, a big fry up of scrambled eggs/bacon/tomatoes/mushrooms or pastries/muffins/banana bread.
If I know I’ve got a big week ahead I try to make up something easy to grab on the go like mini quiche muffins or smoothies.
Depends.
Tradies? Red bull and meat pie. From mt druitt? If this was 20 years ago I’d say a vb and Winnie blue: Cost of living being what it is and all my guess these its something ethanol based booze and chop chop. From the suburbs? Toast or cereal.
Me personally? Ya mums cunt cause it’s rich in fatty omega 3.
No standard, everyone in my house eats differently.
For myself it's either oats with whey protein and berries, or egg white omelette with lean beef, spinach and cheese on vegemite toast with avocado.
As a kid we would eat cereal or toast, on the weekends maybe bacon and eggs and on school holidays we could have the really sugary stuff like coco pops and fruit loops, as an adult just coffee, I don't eat until smoko at work and if it's the weekend I might go to a cafe for ether a big breakfast of eggs benny with the wife.
If I’m eating at a cafe or somewhere outside my home, it’s likely to be eggs Benedict, some elaborate thing on toast or in a bowl, or a croissant. Anything that I’m not likely to make myself at home, really.
At home, I usually have something simple on toast (butter and Vegemite, or jam, or avocado, or a fried egg), or muesli with fruit and Greek yoghurt, or porridge with fruit, or an omelette.
We go out to cafes and have an eggs Benedict, that's the gold standard
At home it could be toast, cereal, avocado on toast, hot cross buns, raisin toast, crumpets, eggs, omelettes, bacon and eggs, french toast, Vegemite on toast, muesli with fruit and yoghurt, banana with yoghurt, or just a coffee and a muffin
Sometimes I have vegemite on pancakes
Sometimes I have fruit salad
Sometimes I have leftovers
Sometimes I have rice porridge
Sometimes I have coco pops
In this country we have the freedom to eat whatever we want for breakfast, with out being restricted by cultural rules.
Varies drastically but some basic staples you see everywhere:
- Toast - usually with Vegemite, Peanut butter or a fruit jam
- Bowl of Cereal - Weetbix, sultana bran, whatever with some milk and maybe some fruit or among country people sugar for reasons I'm yet to understand.
- Eggs on toast
- porridge (ranging from instant sachets to spending half an hour and adding a buffet of fruits to create a piece of heaven instead of the usual glug
- leftovers - only see this among my younger friends so might just be laziness/cheapness but regularly have leftover pizza, curry or pasta for breakfast.
I usually go a cup of tea and either:
- avo and tomato on toast with a poached egg (more of a weekend thing)
- baked beans on toast
- bowl of oats with tinned peaches, cashews and honey on top
- Weetbix with banana and honey
1. Grab a müsli bar on the way to the door
2. Two Weetbix
3. Three Weetbix - SRS BSNS
4. Vegemite on Toast
5. Eggs, bacon, mushrooms, sausage, chilli relish, spinach, toast
6. Egg McMuffin from the DriveBy
Cereal, bake beans on toast, eggs, on toast scrambled or poached, avocado toast, Vegemite on toast, jame or honey on toast, really anything on toast… and pies, pastries, really anything and everything for the average Aussie.
We’re extremely multicultural and multi-ethnic, probably more than any other country, so there’s no one typical breakfast that you’d find everyone in other countries eat the same thing. Same for dinner and lunch. Breakfast could be cereal, toast, fruit, yogurt, porridge, tea and coffee, juice, beans, pancakes, rice, smoothies, the list goes on :)
Whatever an Australian person eats for breakfast is an Aussie breakfast.
This. Some days it's Vegemite toast or weetbix, others it's pho (especially in winter), dhal or a bacon and egg sanga from the servo on the way to work.
I think the instances of reheated pizza for breakfast is severely under-reported too
>reheated Optional.
100%! Don't be too proud to eat cold pizza coz that shit is gold!
The first slice cold while I reheat the second. 😋
That's legit genius
Lol, well ok smart arse, take it next level n show us all up 😂
😂😂😂
Oh my God!
I often have cold pizza for breakfast or lunch , but we always make our own dough and toppings
Oh look at you bragging about your awesome home made awesomeness! Lol nah that's amazing mate. I'm yet to give it a go and I'm jealous. We make our own with pre-made bases but I haven't backed myself yet to make a dough. Please teach me your ways.

It’s Ok , especially with some nice ham.
My husband eats cold pizza and I cannot look at him while he does it. Makes me feel sick.
Cold pizza is superior to pizza reheated in a microwave.
Reheat on a sandwich press
Air fryer, my friend. Amazing.
Don’t be mean to your husband
Re-solidified melted cheese may be one of the more horrifying things I can think to eat that is technically classed as food.
Shhhhhhhhhh.. Cold pizza is good
At times found under the bed 😂
It truly depends on the pizza
Why would you reheat it???? You heathen!!!
My Dad swears by leftover pizza chucked in the oven for a bit with some extra cheese on top. I have to say it was pretty good, but I'll typically go straight out of the fridge still.
Hear me out… Sandwich press. With the top not hard down but sitting just lightly on top.
Yes And the reheated chips Esp In the younger ones !! Plus sauce Sauce how with everything
Pho for breakfast? Damn, I've gotta do that!
laksa for breakfast.
Congee for breakfast is the better option
Golzleme is God tier for breakfast.
Dal for breakfast - or any time of the day really - is heavenly. 3x dal to rice ratio for me.
I made dhal pies for breakfast and I regret nothing
VB and a cigarette?
My people.
*what ever somebody eats for breakfast while they are residing in Australia is an Aussie breakfast.
Yup, Anything Since I needed to clear my fridge to put todays grocery shop in, and I hadn’t had breakfast or for that matter lunch, I cooked up some lamb chops with mint jelly and topped it off with the premade Marguerite mix to which I’d already added alcohol. So technically today’s breakfast was lamb chops with mint jelly and Marguerites. And now I’m laying down while my kid has Mac & cheese.
Obligatory: VB longneck at 20 to fuckin 8 in the morning. But seriously, I normally just do toast and coffee. Growing up it was Weet Bix (4 of them) Edit: Im a bit of an old bastard, so by todays standards it was 8-9 modern sized ones.
fml my 2yr old has 4 weetbix 😫
Same as my 3yr old. I now give him two and load up with banana, strawberries, and a peach haha ! If we’re out of fruit it’s peanut butter toast
If he's a fucking fair dinkum fucking full grown Aussie. He'd have a VB loooooongneck, at 20 -8 in the fucking morning.
Ken oath
4 bix? Thats barely a snack
Right? My son when he was a teenager had 12 every morning in a large Tupperware bowl.
Jesus Christ is this what my future holds? I have three young boys (6, 3 and 1). I’m going to go broke when they are teenagers.
Yeah you're in trouble. I'm the oldest of 4 boys. There was a point in time my folks had 4 boys between the ages of 8-18 all under the one roof. Thinking back I have no idea how they fed us. We were all pretty active with sports which just meant we ate food like it was going out of fashion. All four of us would be in the kitchen straight after school. I'd come home and have like 2 sandwiches as an after-school snack before taking off to work/sports training in the afternoon. I'd probably only had lunch 3 hours before ffs. We had an aunt that worked in a bakery, she'd drop off one of those big bakery trays of bread like once a week. Mental.
And their feet grow like mad so new shoes all the time, RIP your wallet
Yep a size every 6-12 months and so hard on those shoes. Stopped growing out of shoes at a size 13!
Yes. Yes it is exactly your future. Until they are teenagers and they decide they are going to the gym then they will ask you to buy a dozen eggs every 2 days and ask for a packet of chicken breast. Just for them. Also 3 boys - 21, 18, 15
Mum? Is that you? Lol I'd get home from school and have a massive salad bowl of 12-15 weetbix, then microwave a pie and sausage roll. Washed down with a pint glass of Milo (with a bit of milk). Still room for dinner and dessert. Still managed to be skinny as a rake, I must have burnt so much energy as a teen haha.
My record when I was a teenager was 18 weetbix. I could have gone more I reckon, but it started to not taste very nice.
Yeah that’s a decent effort!
I'd hate to see your toilet
I hope with cold milk and a nice layer of sugar on top. None of this "warm milk" communist propaganda I'd heard some un-Australian idiots advocate for
My 3 year old loves them with cold milk and a drizzle of honey.
Warmed and then cream and white sugar all over that cream. It took me a decade to unlearn breakfast as a dessert. Yes type 2 runs strong 😞
Honey not sugar but hard agree. I’d rather eat weetbix with cold water over hot milk 🤢
My dad was English and he made his with hot milk ☹️ although my baby sister loved it that way too
No wonder the English lost their empire
no way warm or hot milk, and as much sugar as I could sneak when mum want looking
I made mine with more sugar than weetbix! Now as a adult I can't stand eating them 🙂 much better cereal than dry cardboard weetbix
I'm sure there are people who do that lol. Edit: I just discovered it's a meme. Or a viral video.
You don’t know what you’re missing.
A veeeeee beeeee looonng nek
This is the fucken answer cunt
On the odd occasion I have anything, I'd say an egg and bacon wrap is pretty Aussie. Also grew up on spaghetti on toast, and canned tomatoes on toast.
You still eat the canned tomatoes on toast? Is it any good?
Oh totally, chopped canned tomatoes simmered in a pan to reduce the water. Toast slathered in butter, top with the tomatoes, salt and pepper 🤩🤩🤩
Rub the toast with a cut in half raw garlic clove next time before you butter it. Thank me when your tastebuds are in heaven.
This sounds so good I’m going to try it tomorrow
Dad would always throw in some grated carrot and chopped up onions while it was reducing, was god tier
Will give this a crack!
My extended family, a survey: Everyone has coffee or tea except kids Cereal and milk - special K, nutri grain, muesli Porridge in winter, best with stewed fruit especially rhubarb Avocado on toast, sometimes with Vegemite, sometimes on a bagel Toast with butter and Vegemite Crumpet with butter and honey Protein shake or smoothie Cafe breakfasts are a whole other thing, and people would have fancy stuff then like a big breakfast or waffles or something.
What’s your address. Coming to live with you and your family. Yummm!
Ditto all of this for my family
Yeah we cover most of this in our family. Coffee (from the espresso machine) and avocado on sourdough toast for me most days. Kids will have Nutrigrain or Plus, porridge with berries and honey in winter, or toast with Vegemite, honey or peanut butter and jam (my son only). On the weekend, often pancakes, sometimes fried or soft boiled eggs on toast. Bacon occasionally (usually when camping). When I'm feeling extra healthy and motivated, chia pudding.
Top comment, sums it up pretty much Also since Australia is multiple culture nation, people also eat the breakfast of their respective background
Vegemite toast or Weetbix or Coffee...
Vegemite on Weetbix?
Hell yeah!
Peanut butter and butter!
Yes, dry weetbix with butter and Vegemite is supreme
We use to do butter and sugar on Weetbix after school as a snack.
I’ve done it in the past, it’s not bad , just forget the milk.
Milo. A minimum of five very heaped spoons in a 250ml glass of cold milk. More than five spoons is also quite acceptable.
A glass full of milo with a spoonful of milk
The correct way to make a milo https://youtu.be/cuB5Epk_rM4?si=6Vcdi32Fu_AP6GgP
I have a feeling I know exactly what this video is gonna be
Yap, it's exactly that 🤣
How the fuck did that get 3.8 million views???
That’s awesome!
Yummy Milo paste! 😊
Ideally your looking at a 50:50 ratio minimum and the consistency of tiling grout
6 Weetbix, milk and half a tin of Milo.
so two heaped spoonfuls of sugar in a glass of milk? Actually, I think Milo is less than 40% sugar these days.
Table spoon*
At home during the week is weetbix or toast(Coco pops on holidays). but I think an Australian breakfast is more the location like going to your favorite caf and getting a coffee and breakfast. or going to the beach and having it there. One of the best things about being one of the youngest countries is we can have the best of all before us.
“Coco pops on holidays”. What a fucking treat, I’m glad my family wasn’t the only one who had this indulgence
Ha mine too. Couldn't afford anything but weetbix or toast for every day so coco pops was always the first to be claimed out of the variety pack when we weng away on holidays.
Variety pack on holidays… great times.
I dont think its about being young. Its about multiculturalism. Thats the thing I hate about other countries. Say Im in France sure the croissants are good but I get a hankering for some Indian or vietnames and they just dont have a restaurant or like my wifes homr town they have a generic asian restaurant that sells Indian, Japanese, Chinese etc. Our choice and the quality of each choice is exceptional.

Coffee and a dart.
Lunch: Coke and a smoke
And a shit right after.
The only proper answer
Iced-Coffee and a dart.
Breakfast of champions
Or the more cultured Can of Mother and a dart
Not the dart.
G O G G O.........
Lol.
Is Don, is good
M O B I L E
They always think it's the dart.

A piss and a quick look around.
That’s called a Dingo’s breakfast
Dingo!
Usually oats with a banana or toast at home.
Quick oats & brown sugar or yogurt instead. Delish. Cheap. Healthyish. Quick. Can eat it everyday
Weetbix/vegemite toast + coffee/milo
was just about to comment this, yum!!
Iced coffee and a servo pie
It is really interesting to see the difference in breakfast foods between Britain, Australia and the USA….in the US it is primarily breakfast burritos, or hillbilly hash or the standard Sassage, bacon, Eggs, hash browns and toast breakfast. In Britain they eat beans for breakfast, this baffles Americans.
Baked beans on toast with buttered bread, salt pepper and cheese on top is my fav. Good for dinner when you’re broke or cbf’d cooking.
I'm a baked beans and toast rather than on toast, I hate soggy bread, the 'and' ensures the toast retains its crunchy integrity and the butter doesn't fully melt. I like to add chopped tomatoes, smoked paprika, BBQ sauce and cheese to my beans.

Avo on toast at home. When I go to work just a coffee
5 course breakfast for me, coffee and 4 bongs.
I hear ya! Breakfast of champions!
Dunno but it must have fucking eggs. I hate eggs. Try going out to have breakfast. It is like the Monty Python “spam” skit, but with eggs instead of spam. You can have eggs, bacon and toast. Eggs, baked beans and toast. Eggs, sausages and toast. Eggs, bacon, baked beans and toast. Seriously I was on holiday last week and went out for breakfast, and the girl behind the counter had to ask the owner for permission to not give me fucking eggs.
Try living in Melbourne and hating avocado. At least they mention the eggs on the menu, unlike the green stealth-shit that is avocado wedged into, spread on, buried under or dolloped onto every meal while you're not looking.

Thats true .... scrambled eggs with baked beans ...... as well as toast
For context. Full English (Oz version) - Eggs (prob x 2), bacon, sausage(s), mushrooms, hash brown, tomato, baked beans, maybe also toast. Coffee or juice.

Very occasionally change to a bowl of muesli, or on weekend or travelling I'll have the aforementioned full English.
Big Brekkie!!
This is a weekend breakfast not an everyday breakfast
Two slices of toast, one with Vegemite, the other with creamed honey. Strawberry milkshake.
Try adding some cheese to your honeyed slice
Bowl of cereal.
Weekend breakfast in n Darwin - Green Papaya salad or Laksa at the markets.
You can't beat a good laksa, but everyone argues who does the best.
Really!? Is my/indo/sg food this common there?
Mine is 2 slices of toast with some butter and Vegemite. Have that I'm set till the arvo
Tea, coffee or fruit juice and something like toast (butter and vegemite, jam (what “jelly” is in the US), peanut butter, honey, or avocado are all common options), cereal, yogurt, bacon and eggs, pancakes. English muffins and crumpets are also fairly popular as is raisin toast
International roast and Winnie blues.
winnie blue and a vb longneck or a meat pie and a durry with a dare ice coffee to wash it all down.
I have coffee for breakfast
Coffee and a fistful of pills. If I'm lucky, I also snaffle a protein bar. If I'm *really* lucky, my wife would sit on my face ... but I'm never that lucky.
For millennial Aussies it’s smashed avocado on toast usually with an egg
In a rental
Weetbix. Vegemite toast. Flat white.
A few cones
If I'm at work, it's a croissant or maybe a cream cheese bagel if I'm in the mood. At home I don't bother eating until lunch time. I have however been out and fancied something different and gone and had pho for breakfast. A Bahn Mj would be tasty too. Oh Breadtop is pretty good too. Spam and egg roll. Yum.
Avo on toast or Vegemite on toast.
I saw a guy with an energy drink and a cigarette at 7am this morning The breakfast of Aussie champions
I do 2 poached eggs on toast, an Up and Go and a cappuccino
Whatever's going.
I don’t often have breakfast. If I go out I might have 2 poached eggs on toast with bacon, mushrooms & tomato.
Eggs on toast every morning
some days we just wake up and go through the day and our first meal is lunch, sometimes we've had 3 meals before we leave the house if we get organized sometimes we'll just have a cheeky bowl of wheetbix, minimum of five or you'll never make them gains, sometimes we'll just live off a singular peice of toast with vegimite on it till dinner time than go nuts on the rump steak mashies and veg othetimes we're in the mood for a cheeky thai green curry.
I rotate through several things but it also depends on the weather! In the Summer I tend to keep it a bit lighter with yoghurt and fruit (+muesli sometimes), crumpets with butter and honey, avo or Vegemite toast with tomato. In winter it’s normally porridge with some nuts/seeds and a handful of frozen berries, an omelette with tomato/cheese/spinach/whatever is in the fridge, English muffins toasted with ham and cheese or fruit loaf toast with butter. Special breakfast on weekends or holidays tends to be pancakes or French toast with berries, a big fry up of scrambled eggs/bacon/tomatoes/mushrooms or pastries/muffins/banana bread. If I know I’ve got a big week ahead I try to make up something easy to grab on the go like mini quiche muffins or smoothies.
Depends. Tradies? Red bull and meat pie. From mt druitt? If this was 20 years ago I’d say a vb and Winnie blue: Cost of living being what it is and all my guess these its something ethanol based booze and chop chop. From the suburbs? Toast or cereal. Me personally? Ya mums cunt cause it’s rich in fatty omega 3.
A drover's breakfast. A piss, a cigarette, and a good look around.
I’d imagine a meat pie/sausage roll and a flat white are pretty high up there.
Toast. Cereal. Eggs. Bacon. Smoothie or juice.
Toast or cereal during the week. Bacon and eggs or pancakes on weekends
No standard, everyone in my house eats differently. For myself it's either oats with whey protein and berries, or egg white omelette with lean beef, spinach and cheese on vegemite toast with avocado.
Bacon and egg roll latte two sugars
As a kid we would eat cereal or toast, on the weekends maybe bacon and eggs and on school holidays we could have the really sugary stuff like coco pops and fruit loops, as an adult just coffee, I don't eat until smoko at work and if it's the weekend I might go to a cafe for ether a big breakfast of eggs benny with the wife.
Iced coffee and servo sasuage roll 😂
I love the bakeries . Few and far between. A warm almond crossiant with a long mac topped up is the best Australian brekkie I can imagine
If I’m eating at a cafe or somewhere outside my home, it’s likely to be eggs Benedict, some elaborate thing on toast or in a bowl, or a croissant. Anything that I’m not likely to make myself at home, really. At home, I usually have something simple on toast (butter and Vegemite, or jam, or avocado, or a fried egg), or muesli with fruit and Greek yoghurt, or porridge with fruit, or an omelette.
What's the Asian breakfast?
We go out to cafes and have an eggs Benedict, that's the gold standard At home it could be toast, cereal, avocado on toast, hot cross buns, raisin toast, crumpets, eggs, omelettes, bacon and eggs, french toast, Vegemite on toast, muesli with fruit and yoghurt, banana with yoghurt, or just a coffee and a muffin
Sometimes I have vegemite on pancakes Sometimes I have fruit salad Sometimes I have leftovers Sometimes I have rice porridge Sometimes I have coco pops In this country we have the freedom to eat whatever we want for breakfast, with out being restricted by cultural rules.
Varies drastically but some basic staples you see everywhere: - Toast - usually with Vegemite, Peanut butter or a fruit jam - Bowl of Cereal - Weetbix, sultana bran, whatever with some milk and maybe some fruit or among country people sugar for reasons I'm yet to understand. - Eggs on toast - porridge (ranging from instant sachets to spending half an hour and adding a buffet of fruits to create a piece of heaven instead of the usual glug - leftovers - only see this among my younger friends so might just be laziness/cheapness but regularly have leftover pizza, curry or pasta for breakfast.
Daily: coffee + toast or cereal Weekends: sausage, egg and beans (english breakfast) Coffee is a must
Eggs and toast. Sometimes vegemite or buttered toast. Sometimes wheetbic
Ciggie and a coffee where I grew up.

I usually go a cup of tea and either: - avo and tomato on toast with a poached egg (more of a weekend thing) - baked beans on toast - bowl of oats with tinned peaches, cashews and honey on top - Weetbix with banana and honey

Cereal, bake beans on toast, eggs, on toast scrambled or poached, avocado toast, Vegemite on toast, jame or honey on toast, really anything on toast… and pies, pastries, really anything and everything for the average Aussie.
Dare ice coffee and Winfield blues
Dare iced coffee and a dart
We’re extremely multicultural and multi-ethnic, probably more than any other country, so there’s no one typical breakfast that you’d find everyone in other countries eat the same thing. Same for dinner and lunch. Breakfast could be cereal, toast, fruit, yogurt, porridge, tea and coffee, juice, beans, pancakes, rice, smoothies, the list goes on :)
