For toast ideas:
avocado, tomato and alfalfa sprouts on wholegrain toast with a squeeze of lemon and sprinkle of pepper!. You can also roll it up in a lettuce leaf instead of toast!.
baked beans
tahini & maple syrup or agave nectar
almond, peanut, cashew or brazil nut butter and banana
Other ideas:
fruit salad with a vanilla cashew cream (just blend cashews, water and vanilla essence)
muesli with soy,oat, rice or almond milk
bircher muesli, soaked in juice instead of yoghurt
silken tofu scrambled with soy sauce and ketchup with some grilled tomatoes, mushrooms and green onions
As for sweeteners:
maple syrup
agave nectar
xylitol
stevia (the liquid extract doesn't have the bitterness that the whole herb has)
rapadura sugar (evaporated cane juice)
banana/dried fruit work well on cereal to sweetenWww@FoodAQ@Com

The tastiest cereal I eat is Dorset cereals, I currently have the fruit, nuts and seeds variety!. It has Oat flakes, Chilean flame raisins, toasted and malted wheat flakes,barley flakes, dried apricots, sultanas, banana(sweetened with coconut oil), pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, almonds and roasted hazelnuts!.
I always let it soak in soya milk for about 10 minutes, it softens the fruit lovely!. This will keep you full till lunch, and it doesn't need sweetening!. It not dry like some muesli!. Or you can replace half the milk with soya yohurt!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

An orange, a banana, a pear, and an apple! also a carrot!. Yum!.
Or, alternately, some cereal, hash browns, grits (made with water, not milk, of course), and some pineapple!.
If you're not familiar with grits, oatmeal works just as well, but you might like grits!. They're a familiar thing here in the south, but be careful! Most places serve them with huge amounts of butter, cheese, and bacon!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Here are some of my favorites:

Soya yogurt with banana, strawberrys(or any fruit of your choice) with seeds on the top!.

Heres some recipes you might like:
Fruity Porridge
Ingredients
1/2 cup of porride oats
1 cup of soya milk
handful of sultanas
1 banana
golden syrup
Add 1/2 cup of porridge and 1 cup of soya milk together in a microwaveable dish or a saucepan!. If making in the microwave cook for 2 mins on 800 then stir and add more milk if required and put back on for a further 2 mins!. If cooking in a saucepan put on a medium heat and keep stirring all the time until the porridge starts to bubble!.
Line the bottom of a bowl with thinly sliced banana and pour the porridge over the top!. Add a handful of sultanas (washed in hot water to make them swell) and stir!. Add as much goldne syrup as you like!.
Blueberry Pancakes
Ingredients
plain wholemeal flour
soya milk
vegan margarine
blueberries
soya cream
For the pancake mix, I never measure my ingredients but judge by the consistancy of the mixture!. If I want thin crisp pancakes I make a runnier mixture and for thicker stogier pancakes I use more flour!. I usually make less mix than I need in case we don't eat as many as I anticipated, but if you have some left over it will keep in the fridge for as long as the milk will stay fresh!.
Start by melting a knob of margarine in a frying pan!. Mix soya milk and the flour together in a jug with a fork until you have the desired consistancy!. If it is lumpy you can use a hand mixer to smooth it out!.
Pour some mixture into the pan!. For thin pancakes barely cover the bottom of the pan, but for thicker ones pour in a more generous amount!. Cook on a medium heat as you don't want them to burn!. Use a spatula to gently turn the bottom of the pancake to check how it is cooking!. If it is going brown but there is still a lot of liquid mixture on the top turn the heat down a bit!. Once the pancake is solid enough flip over gently using the spatula and cook the other side!. I have never been able to toss these as they don't have the same consitancy as regular pancakes!.
Once the other side is cooked as well turn out of the pan and fill one side with soya cream and blueberries!. Flip the other side over and then enjoy!.
