Anyone have any idea for a fattening breakfast it's just the one meal that I don't know how to make super calorically dense?

Southerner here. There's scores of ways to make things more fattening.

- Cook things like eggs in butter or bacon grease.

- Include breakfast meats like bacon or sausage.

- Have two kinds of starches for breakfast like tater tots, pancakes, biscuits, or toast.

- Drink things with calories like milk, juice, or coffee with fattening additives

Yeah, but I don't recommend drinking a glass of heavy cream to replace a glass of milk. Like kudos to those who choose to do that, but heavy cream on it's own tastes like shit.

What are you currently eating for breakfast, and how many calories are you aiming for?

I dont have time to cook much in the morning. But something simple like avocado and egg toast with smoked salmon works really well, and is easy to do!

If you’re having two slices of bread, two eggs, some salmon, avocado, butter on the toast, and a little cooking oil (if you’re frying the eggs), it all adds up to around 750 calories. It’s also a pretty nutritious breakfast that isn’t loaded with sugar.

You could also do breakfast in “courses” (or a second breakfast if you're a LOTR fan).Start with something savory and then have cereal, a muffin, or a pastry. Obviously you need to be careful with the sweet treats so overloading with sweet pastries I would keep as a weekend treat or something. Other extra things to up the calorie intake is if you simply drink a protein shake with your meal that's an extra 300 calories instantly.

Hope this helps!

My wife and I have taken to heavy cream during dinner, actually. We add it to our Alfredo pasta sauce to stretch it out further without losing consistency or filling-ness :-)

I sometimes if I have time I do cheese pancakes, with butter golden syrup. With creamy scrambled eggs, and orange juice. Maybe some bacon if I feel like it. A big serve I estimate as 2500 calories or more.
