Breakfast does not have to look the same every morning.

Some days call for a light plate with vegetables and salad. Other mornings, you may want potatoes, eggs, protein, and enough sides to keep you going until lunch.

At Blado Restaurant, the Make Your Own Breakfast concept gives you control over the combination.

The process starts with your egg, followed by your protein and sides. You can then complete the plate with salad or bakery and one free topping.

That means the sides are not simply an extra part of the plate.

They can change the entire direction of your breakfast.

You can keep things simple with grilled tomato and mushrooms. You can build a more filling combination with hash brown and herb potatoes. You can include local ingredients such as tempeh and cassava. Or you can create a vegetable-focused plate with tofu, green beans, sweet corn, and other available vegetables.

Here are 10 breakfast sides Ubud guests can mix into their Blado morning plate.

1. Hash Brown

Hash Brown is an easy choice when you want your breakfast to feel familiar and satisfying.

Its crispy potato texture works naturally with eggs and breakfast proteins such as Crispy Bacon, Grilled Chicken Sausage, or Smoked Ham.

For a classic combination, you could choose:

  • Scrambled Egg
  • Crispy Bacon
  • Hash Brown
  • Baked Beans
  • Sourdough Toast

The Hash Brown adds a crisp potato element to the softer egg and creates a familiar breakfast combination.

It is also useful when you want your breakfast to feel more filling without adding several different vegetables.

Choose Hash Brown when you want:

A familiar and satisfying breakfast side.

2. Herb Potatoes

If you enjoy potatoes but want something different from Hash Brown, Herb Potatoes provide another direction.

They can work with both classic and vegetable-focused breakfast combinations.

Try pairing Herb Potatoes with Omelette Vegetable, Grilled Chicken Sausage, Creamy Spinach, and Grilled Tomato.

For a more substantial morning plate, add Grilled Chicken.

For a lighter combination, keep the protein simple and add salad in the final step.

Herb Potatoes are particularly useful when breakfast needs to support a busy day around Ubud.

You can build a plate with egg, protein, potatoes, vegetables, and bakery without needing to order a fixed breakfast set.

Choose Herb Potatoes when you want:

A warm and filling potato side.

3. Baked Beans

Baked Beans are another familiar breakfast choice.

They work especially well with eggs, bacon, sausage, hash brown, and toast.

A classic combination could be:

  • Sunny Side-Up
  • Crispy Bacon
  • Hash Brown
  • Baked Beans
  • Grilled Tomato
  • Sourdough Toast

The beans add another soft texture to the plate and help create a more complete breakfast.

They are a practical option for international travelers who want something recognizable while building their own plate at Blado.

Baked Beans can also be combined with local-inspired choices. The Make Your Own Breakfast concept does not require every side to follow one specific breakfast style.

You can mix familiar items with local ingredients according to your preference.

Choose Baked Beans when you want:

A classic breakfast side that works with familiar combinations.

4. Sautéed Mushrooms

Sautéed Mushrooms are a flexible option for guests who want vegetables to play a bigger role in breakfast.

They pair naturally with Poached Egg, Omelette Vegetable, Smoked Ham, Grilled Chicken, or other egg and protein choices.

For example:

  • Poached Egg
  • Smoked Ham
  • Sautéed Mushrooms
  • Creamy Spinach
  • Avocado Salad
  • English Muffin

This combination creates a breakfast that feels more balanced without relying heavily on potatoes.

Mushrooms can also be useful when you want to build a lighter plate. Choose one side instead of two, add salad or bakery in the final step, and keep the rest of the combination simple.

For guests who enjoy savory vegetables in the morning, Sautéed Mushrooms are one of the easiest sides to work into different breakfast styles.

Choose Sautéed Mushrooms when you want:

A savory vegetable side with plenty of flexibility.

5. Creamy Spinach

Creamy Spinach brings a softer vegetable element to the plate.

It can work particularly well with Poached Egg, Grilled Chicken, Smoked Ham, or bakery options.

A possible combination is:

  • Poached Egg
  • Grilled Chicken
  • Creamy Spinach
  • Herb Potatoes
  • Sourdough Toast

The spinach gives the plate a softer vegetable component, while the potatoes and bakery make it more filling.

You can also keep the combination lighter by pairing it with salad instead of another heavier side.

Creamy Spinach is a good example of how one side can change the balance of a breakfast plate.

Choose Creamy Spinach when you want:

A softer vegetable component with a richer texture.

6. Savory Cassava

Cassava gives your breakfast a more local direction.

For international guests, it can also be a simple way to include a familiar root vegetable in a different breakfast combination.

Savory Cassava can work particularly well with Indonesian-inspired egg choices such as Omelette Padang or Telor Barendo.

Try:

  • Omelette Padang
  • Grilled Chicken
  • Savory Cassava
  • Tempeh
  • Parata
  • Bumbu Pecel

This moves the breakfast away from a standard eggs-and-toast combination and introduces more local ingredients into the plate.

Cassava can also be paired with more familiar choices if you do not want the entire breakfast to follow one local direction.

That is the advantage of the Make Your Own Breakfast system.

You can decide how much of the plate you want to explore.

Choose Savory Cassava when you want:

A local ingredient in your morning plate.

7. Tempeh

Tempeh is another local ingredient that can give your breakfast more Indonesian character.

It works well with Omelette Padang, Omelette Vegetable, Telor Barendo, cassava, and vegetable sides.

A local-inspired combination could include:

  • Omelette Vegetable
  • Tempeh
  • Savory Cassava
  • Sweet Corn
  • Garden Salad
  • Parata
  • Bumbu Pecel

The combination can be especially interesting for guests who want to move beyond a standard western breakfast while still keeping the structure simple.

Tempeh can also contribute to a more vegetable-focused plate when combined with tofu, vegetables, and salad.

If you are looking for a tempeh breakfast in Ubud, the Make Your Own Breakfast concept lets you decide how much tempeh and how many other local sides you want on the plate.

Choose Tempeh when you want:

A familiar Indonesian ingredient in a customizable breakfast.

8. Tofu

Tofu gives you another way to build a more vegetable-focused breakfast.

It can be paired with eggs, mushrooms, vegetables, cassava, tempeh, or salad.

For example:

  • Omelette Vegetable
  • Tofu
  • Sautéed Mushrooms
  • Grilled Tomato
  • Garden Salad
  • Sourdough Toast

This combination keeps the focus on egg and vegetables while still creating a complete morning plate.

Tofu can also be combined with local ingredients such as tempeh and cassava.

The result does not have to be complicated.

You can choose a few ingredients that you actually enjoy and leave the rest out.

That is what makes the concept useful for guests with different preferences.

Choose Tofu when you want:

A simple option for a vegetable-focused plate.

9. Sweet Corn

Sweet Corn is a straightforward side that can work with both familiar and local-inspired breakfast combinations.

It adds another vegetable element without making the plate feel too heavy.

Try pairing it with Scrambled Egg, Beef Salami, Grilled Tomato, and English Muffin for a more familiar breakfast.

Or combine it with Telor Barendo, Eggplant, Garden Salad, and a local-inspired topping for something different.

Sweet Corn also works well when you want to add one more side without choosing another potato-based option.

This makes it useful for guests who want more variety in their breakfast without making the plate too large.

Choose Sweet Corn when you want:

A simple vegetable side that fits different combinations.

10. Grilled Tomato

Grilled Tomato is one of the easiest sides to combine with almost any breakfast style.

It works with eggs, bacon, chicken sausage, mushrooms, potatoes, bakery, and salad.

  • Hash Brown

More Sides to Explore

The 10 options above are only part of the available selection.

Blado's breakfast menu also includes other sides such as:

  • Green Bean
  • Potato Butter Masala
  • Cherry Rempah
  • Long Bean & Sprouts
  • Baby Potato
  • Eggplant
  • Carrot & Bean

This gives guests more room to create different combinations instead of repeating the same breakfast every visit.

Make Your Breakfast Lighter

If you want a lighter morning plate, you do not need to fill every available space.

Start with an egg.

Choose one protein if you want one.

Then select one vegetable-focused side.

For example:

Poached Egg + Smoked Ham + Sautéed Mushrooms

Then complete the plate with:

Avocado Salad + English Muffin + Yoghurt

The result is still a complete breakfast, but the focus stays on egg, protein, vegetables, and lighter finishing choices.

Another option is:

Omelette Vegetable + Tofu + Grilled Tomato

Then add Garden Salad and Sourdough Toast.

The point is not to follow a fixed formula.

It is to choose only what you actually want.

Make Your Breakfast More Filling

On mornings when you have a busy itinerary, you may want more substance.

This is where potato and protein combinations become useful.

Try:

Sunny Side-Up + Grilled Chicken Sausage + Herb Potatoes + Baked Beans

Then add:

Sourdough Toast + Honey Mustard

Or choose:

Omelette Vegetable + Grilled Chicken + Hash Brown + Creamy Spinach

Then complete it with:

Pita Bread + Chilli Oil Garlic

These combinations create a larger morning plate without requiring a fixed breakfast set.

You control the number of sides and the final components.

Make It More Vegetable-Focused

Vegetable-focused does not have to mean complicated.

Choose an egg, then combine vegetables and plant-based sides according to your preference.

For example:

Omelette Vegetable + Tofu + Sautéed Mushrooms + Sweet Corn

Complete it with:

Garden Salad + Sourdough Toast

Or try:

Telor Barendo + Tempeh + Eggplant + Long Bean & Sprouts

Then add:

Avocado Salad + Parata + Tomato Asam Manis

These combinations allow vegetables and local ingredients to take a more visible role on the plate.

Add More Local Character

If you are visiting Bali and want your breakfast to include more local ingredients, the sides can help you do that.

Start with Omelette Padang or Telor Barendo.

Then choose sides such as:

  • Savory Cassava
  • Tempeh
  • Tofu
  • Long Bean & Sprouts
  • Eggplant

Finish with Parata and Bumbu Pecel.

This gives you a breakfast that is different from a standard western-style plate while keeping the ordering process simple.

You are still following the same four-step concept.

You are simply making different choices.

Mix Familiar and Local

You do not have to choose between a western breakfast and a local breakfast.

Mix both.

Try:

Scrambled Egg + Crispy Bacon + Tempeh + Grilled Tomato

Then add:

Sourdough Toast + Bumbu Pecel

Or:

Sunny Side-Up + Grilled Chicken Sausage + Savory Cassava + Mushrooms

Then add:

Garden Salad + Honey Mustard

This kind of combination is one of the strengths of the Blado breakfast concept.

The plate can reflect your preferences rather than forcing you into one food category.
