What do you have for breakfast?

I've recently been getting hungry in the mornings, so I think I may want to start having a larger breakfast and a smaller dinner. I've normally had a bowl of cereal or sometimes a pair of crumpets. I ideally want something that it's ok even if I have the same thing every day for a month, because having a choice is nice, but I'd like a default where I can make it on autopilot when I need to.

Musli and/or ganola (I sometimes buy both and mix them up) with yoghurt and sometimes blueberries; if time tea. When I get to work I have coffee, and sometimes an apple. I can manage to make porridge in the microwave when snoozy, but it takes too long to reach an eatable temperature and makes manky washing up, but sometimes I want something hot, so I do. (Er, I forget the exact ratio of oats to water, but I wrote it on my box of oats so I'd get it right*)

I'm usually eating breakfast a bit before 9 and eat lunch at about 12.

*I see that rmc recommends porridge with milk, this is of course a matter of personal taste - porridge can be made with milk, water, or a mix of the two (cream might work too); some people like to add sugar and/or other sweet flavourings either before heating or after (jam, maple syrup, fruit, etc. are all allegedly nice) personally I like to add salt (sometimes other salty things such as bacon bits, salted peanuts, salted fish) naturally this is also a matter of personal taste. If you haven't eaten porridge much then I guess it could be worth experimenting with how you like it by trying it with different things in.
