It is quite nice to have a slightly later breakfast or brunch on Christmas/Boxing Day that is a bit more special.
It doesn’t have to take forever to prepare but it might be nice to use ingredients that you wouldn’t serve every day. Always lovely to have a glass of bucks fizz to go with it too!
- Toasted bagel, topped with sliced avocado, smoked salmon , ground black pepper and a squeeze of lemon.
- Porrridge with maple syrup or honey, raspberries and chopped pistachio nuts.
- Croissant split in half, topped with ham and cheese and grilled to melt.
- Scrambled egg with crumbled cooked bacon added to it.
- Sliced mushrooms cooked in a small amount of butter until beginning to brown, stir in a splash of port, let it bubble then add chopped parsley and a couple of tablespoons crème fraiche. Serve on granary toast.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
