5 Ways to Serve the SAME Breakfast… for Dinner 😂🍳✨

Last night’s dinner wasn’t dinner.

It was BREAKFAST. For DINNER.

Because sometimes that’s the only meal everyone will actually eat 😭💛

In a SEN household with picky eaters, sensory needs and very specific food rules, “one meal” turns into five different plates… even though the ingredients are literally the same.

Here’s how I turned one full English into 5 completely different dinners:

---

🍳 Plate 1: Full English

The whole vibe — bacon, sausage, egg, beans, toast.

Textures separate but all included.

The classic brinner plate.

🥪 Plate 2: Bacon, Egg & cheese Sandwich

Soft bread, no visible textures, contained neatly.

Perfect for sensory-sensitive eaters who get overwhelmed by busy plates.

🍞 Plate 3: Sausages, Beans & Toast

Simple, beige, comforting.

Zero fuss, maximum eaten.

🍗 Plate 4: Sausage, Bacon, Egg + BBQ Sauce

A protein-heavy plate for the “no beans EVER” child 😭

Sauce only if it’s BBQ, nothing else.

🫙 Plate 5: Beans in a Jar + Sausages + Toast

Everything separated, nothing touching, visually predictable.

Ideal for ASD/ADHD kids who prefer compartment-style meals. (Even though that ONE bean that I managed to miss on the plate, sent him over the edge 😅)

---

✨ Why I let everyone eat a different version:

Because it’s still one cooking session, the same ingredients, the same budget…

Just plated in five ways that meet each kid’s needs.

No meltdowns.

No wasted food.

Everyone fed.

Brinner = peace restored.

Save this for your next “everyone wants something different… using the SAME food” night 😭🍳

sen kids can often be set off by something that to us would seem simple or nothing, just like different food items touching,
