Seasonal fruit is a big part of breakfast.

Not a breakfast eater but you can manage to scarf down a sweet roll or something like that. Add fruit. Think about a donut sandwich --along with the jelly some sliced fresh fruit.

pears, pecans and blue cheese quesadilla

Pears are in season and great on a whole wheat tortilla with blue cheese and chopped and toasted pecans. You can saute the pears in either oil or butter or if they are ripe enough neither is necessary. You could add chicken or whatever as well.

Apple- cheese grilled sandwiches with a relish of green olives, green garlic and capers.
