If you have a Krogers or Safeway (I think that's a Kroger brand with Kirkland brand foods) then check for their private reserve Belgian Waffles in the freezer section. Expensive. But delicious.

Ok, I had to read the OP several times because my brain refused to process it. Breakfast is the fastest, easiest meal of the day to prepare and the OP wants to speed it up? Take the blue pill and strap your Pop-Tart on.

Go make a breakfast burrito and tell me how long it takes.


Whatever the number is, I would rather spend the time sleeping.

15 minutes from start to finish. You're trying to burn the candle at both ends and failing. Develop some better habits. If 15 minutes of sleep is that important to you, go to bed earlier.

Well that's one option, the other option is to buy frozen and call it a day ;)

I acknowledge my habits are terrible. It is what it is.

Just make sure you brush your teeth everyday.

Hey, maybe you can pay someone in China to level your life while you sleep. :D

I've had the best luck with the Jimmy Dean stuff. My favorite though is probably the mini sausage biscuits, which heat in like a minute in my microwave. Great for when I am hauling ass out the door in the morning.

Fold a piece of cheese on them after cooking and it melts. Damn those things are good.

They actually do well from frozen because they're so small.

There's a brand of sausage patties I buy once in a while. One of those in the microwave for 60 seconds served with two lightly scrambled eggs is a good fucking start to my day.

Stuff like sandwiches especially will come out best if you freeze it first, then food saver. It won't get as mushed. :D

I just tried "smart ones" breakfast burritos recently. I usually hate most frozen food, especially the breakfast variety, but these were actually really good. I like them better than the ones at mc donalds. A bit healthier too since they use wheat tortillas and turkey sausage.
