in reply to The breakfast of champions is...

In the past, before I started having issues with dairy, I'd have gone with cold pizza. During undergrad, I'd have probably gone with pop-tarts.

These days, I prefer making hash -- when I bake potatoes, I'll bake a few extras, so in the morning:

  1. preheat a large skillet
  2. cut up potatoes, some bell pepper, onion, whatever other interesting is in the fridge (sausages, leftover steak or corned beef, etc.)
  3. add oil to pan, start browning the potatoes
  4. While waiting, get dressed, check e-mail, etc.
  5. flip the potatoes and add the rest of the stuff to warm through.
  6. season w/ whatever's on hand. (seasoned salt, adobo, salt and smoked paprika, etc.)
  7. If desired, crack over and egg or two and cook for another minute
  8. serve

If I have leftover rice, I'll make nasi goreng.

    Seriously - what Perl hacker *doesn't* love %hash??

      Closest to hash browns ... if you get them from Denny's with everything imaginable in it. Of course, the way I do it, they're more like home fries than a fried pancake of shredded potatoes -- not that there's anything wrong with the shredded potato ones, but this way I just have to clean a knife and not a grater as well.

      I wouldn't be surprised if the CS term and the culinary terms are polysemous -- both have a vague sense of chopping up something to make a new product that is based on the original input, but in some ways made more homogeneous.
