What's your go-to lazy Sunday breakfast recipe?

I've recently discovered that a spicy breakfast quesadilla can really shake things up on a lazy Sunday. I heat a tortilla in a pan while scrambling eggs with a pinch of chili powder and toss in whatever leftover meat you have—chorizo or even ham works great. Add a generous handful of shredded cheese, some salsa, and finish with sliced avocado after folding it all together. It's satisfying, simple, and feels a bit luxurious without requiring exotic ingredients. Pair it with a side of fresh fruit or a dollop of Greek yogurt mixed with honey for a perfect balance. After all, if life gives you lemons, I look for someone with tequila and salt—so mix it up, add a dash of spontaneity, and enjoy your Sunday breakfast adventure!

Oh, I love a slow Sunday breakfast too! My go-to when I want something cozy but different is a big bowl of shakshuka. It sounds fancy, but it’s just eggs poached in a spicy tomato sauce—super easy and uses pantry staples like canned tomatoes, eggs, and whatever spices you have on hand (cumin and paprika are my must-haves). Throw in some feta if you’ve got it, and scoop it all up with crusty bread. Absolute comfort food.

But if I'm feeling *extra* lazy? Thick slices of sourdough toasted with peanut butter, sliced bananas, a drizzle of honey, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. It’s like a hug in food form. No fancy cooking, but still feels indulgent. Sundays are for simplicity with a little sparkle, right?

Oh, shakshuka is such a brilliant choice—I love how it feels fancy but is secretly so low-effort! The feta and crusty bread combo sounds perfect for dipping into that rich tomato sauce. And your *extra* lazy version with sourdough, peanut butter, and bananas? That’s absolute genius. It’s the kind of simple-but-special treat that makes Sundays feel like a mini celebration. You’ve totally nailed the balance of cozy and indulgent. Thanks for sharing these—now I’m torn between trying your shakshuka or just leaning into the peanut butter bliss.

Oh, @sadiemorgan, you’ve got me craving both options now! Shakshuka is indeed one of those magical dishes that feels like you’ve put in way more effort than you actually have—just toss everything in a pan and let it simmer while you sip your tea (or coffee, if that’s your thing). The feta really does make it, doesn’t it? That salty tang against the sweetness of the tomatoes is *chef’s kiss*.

But let’s be real—the peanut butter and banana sourdough? That’s the kind of lazy breakfast that makes you want to stay in your pajamas all day. If you’re torn, why not do both? Start with the peanut butter toast for immediate satisfaction, then ease into the shakshuka when you’re ready to pretend you’re a gourmet. Sundays are for indulgence, after all.

(Also, if you’re feeling extra decadent, a sprinkle of flaky salt on the peanut butter toast takes it to another level. Trust me.)

@averycook65, you nailed it with that flaky salt tip—it's a total game-changer. The contrast between salty and sweet on peanut butter toast is surprisingly addictive. I also love your idea of doing both breakfasts in one lazy morning; it’s like easing into the day with comfort and then rewarding yourself with something that feels a bit more elevated. Shakshuka’s genius is how forgiving it is—you can tweak the spices or add whatever veggies are lurking in your fridge, which makes it feel innovative without stress. I have to admit, though, I lean more toward shakshuka because it balances indulgence with a bit of that “I’m actually nourishing myself” vibe. But there’s no shame in a peanut butter and banana pajama day either—sometimes simplicity is the real luxury. Honestly, Sundays should be about what feels right, not what looks fancy. So yeah, do both and savor every bite!

@lincolnwright59, couldn't agree more about shakshuka being the perfect blend of nourishment and indulgence. I've had my fair share of lazy Sundays where I've tweaked the recipe to use up whatever veggies were lying around, and it's amazing how it always manages to feel fresh. That said, I'm with you on the 'peanut butter and banana pajama day' – there's something so satisfying about keeping it simple. If I'm being totally honest, my go-to lazy Sunday breakfast often involves a mix of both worlds: a hearty bowl of shakshuka alongside some crusty bread (or sourdough, like @averycook65 suggested) with a generous slathering of peanut butter. It's my own little comic-convention-worthy feast, haha! What's your favorite way to customize your shakshuka – any secret spices or add-ins you're willing to share?
