OK, so, do any of you guys like to do things a little backwards, and have a huge salad for breakfast instead of fruit?
Im thinking of it because fruit does not hold me over AT ALL.

Thanks Zephirah, Thats all I needed. I have eatin a kale leaf while making a fruit salad for breakfast once, but I feel kinda weird sitting here with a big "dinner".
I do suppose I used to eat pizza for breakfast when eating SAD. I guess I am overthinking this, It shouldnt be different! lol
I eat whatever I want, whenever I want. As long as it's raw. Sometimes, it feels a little funny to go the non-"traditional" route, but if it's what I want and feels good, I don't question it.
So, you have my blessing. LOL :p

I've done a big salad for breakfast many a time. And I survived . . . no, wait . . . I thrived!
Enjoy your salad days :) .

I don't know about the "guys" here, but for me, I eat what I want. If you listen to my interview with Brenda Cobb on RawkinRadio (http://rawkinradio.com) she says she eats salad 3x's a day. I've been doing 2 but 3 is not out of the question ~ with lots of fruit in between.

We should start a breakfast thread!
Today I ate a four course breakfast :) .
Course 1: a pint of spring water
Course 2: a mug of tulsi tea
Course 3: an orange and a banana
Course 4: living hummus with celery, broccoli, tomatoes, and 1/2 an avocado.
So I ate breakfast from 7 AM to 10 AM

just wanted to add that often times i will eat a salad for breakfast. or maybe greens (spinach or romaine) with chopped up fruit. i used to have a green smoothie each morning, but i don't have my vitamix here with me...so, a salad with fruit is the next best thing, for me!

Think of it this way - having a salad for breakfast isn't much different from having a green smoothie.

I had green juice, 2 bananas, some blueberries, and a goji bar from the book Everyday Raw. and I am still hungry- salad sounds good!

I eat salad for breakfast just about everyday now. I don't care as long as it's not SAD foods. I used to eat pizzas for breakfast before too, but salads now aren't :) weird. Just good for you.

Yep, I'm the same way. I simply don't want to get locked into the concept of "breakfast" foods. So eating something like raw greens and nuts at 6 am is perfect for me.
