Eating Breakfast

From Halachipedia

Eating breakfast

  1. Ideally, one should learn a little after Davening before eating Breakfast. However, If one regularly eats breakfast after prayers before going to the Bet Midrash, one may do so. Preferably one should be a breakfast with some bread (a size of KeBetzah) and water to give one strength to serve Hashem. [1]
  2. Many say that it's sufficient to eat a filling food even if it's not food. [2]
  3. Many say that one may have Mezonot in place of bread for breakfast. [3]
