Eggplant can be a polarizing vegetable. There are those who don’t care for it, but I’m in the other camp. I love eggplant in any form, whether roasted, grilled, or even puréed into baba ganoush. But my absolute favorite? When eggplant is stir-fried with lots of garlic and coated with a glossy, savory sauce that I can spoon over a big bowl of steamed rice.

For many of us, breakfast is rarely more than a cup of coffee or a piece of fruit while rushing out the door. That’s if we manage to eat anything at all: Over 31 million Americans regularly skip breakfast. There is research to back up both sides of the “To Eat or Not to Eat Breakfast” argument, but I think most of us share a wistfulness for a proper breakfast.

Everything I know about eating a more delicious breakfast I learned from my Swedish heritage and the cultures of Scandinavia. Here are five important lessons Scandinavia has to teach us about breakfast.

Let’s be honest — kids are dirty little creatures. They spill everything. Plus there are paint stains from the budding artist, and grass and dirt stains from the future soccer star. And, my favorite, potty training stains.

One of my favorite breakfast foods as a kid was peanut butter toast. It wasn’t anything exotic — usually just some sort of squishy store-bought whole-wheat sandwich bread toasted and slathered with creamy peanut butter (I was happily raised on JIF).
