I imagine if I tried to make this, half the items would be cold by the time I served it.”
Onion Roll Breakfast Bowl
Reddit user Josh_Elkin revealed the recipe for making this onion roll breakfast bowl, one of the most creative breakfast ideas in the collection: “The first step is to slice the top off an onion roll, you have to scoop out the inside making sure there are no holes in the bottom. Then, put a slice of cheddar at the base, chopped chives, crack an egg and add more chives. Next, lay two strips of bacon.” Finally, you have to bake it at 375°F for 15 minutes and add the chopped bacon and the cooked egg on top.
Breakfast Burrito
Reddit user sarahmcalee mentioned making this breakfast burrito at home and then eating it on her way to work. She also revealed that the tortilla is a spinach-flavored one from a generic grocery store, and the filling includes: “Fried potatoes, scrambled eggs, shredded Colby Jack cheese, bacon, avocado, tomato, jalapeño, cilantro, salt, and pepper.” A reply from user anAwes0meWave mentioned: “That looks like the greatest thing ever! It could end the preparation with Cholula sauce.”
Breakfast Quesadilla
This homemade quesadilla was prepared by Reddit user they_were_taken, offering another creative option among these breakfast ideas.

A reply from user gracecase expressed: “Sometimes, I like to fry the quesadilla twice. Also depends on what kind of breakfast I’m making, like it’s chorizo cheese mushroom egg and potatoes on corn, I’m doing it.”
Super Full English Breakfast
For this English breakfast, Reddit user sweetpotato37 prepared bacon, sausages, baked beans, hash browns, roasted tomatoes, mushrooms, and sautéed vegetables, creating one of the heartiest breakfast ideas in the collection.
