Well, worth a try:
breakfast = Scrambled eggs on toast
break = make a hash
fast = in short order

hash – verb (used with object)
6. to chop (break?) into small pieces; make into hash

Main Entry: fast
Synonyms: apace, chop-chop, expeditiously, flat-out, fleetly, full tilt, hastily, hurriedly, in a flash, in haste, in nothing flat, in short order

If correct, methinks "Scrambled eggs on toast" is
an example, not a definition of breakfast.

It's MY breakfast!

That's why I used the question mark. Probably should have use "Scrambled eggs on toast maybe?"

Would love to hear Sue's thoughts as I'm always surprised at legality of some I'd find dubious but illegality of some I expect to be OK!

Thanks Denis

Next one from a recent Irish newspaper (be warned!)

A drink? For what the malingerer's got; by the sound of it (9) 1 'e'

Just reading Pandora's explanation as to why the '?' is needed, so I've added it on this clue to make it 'more legal' wink

Scrambled eggs on toast? Make a hash of it in short order. (9)

I think the direct is fine because of the question mark, which indicates it's either an example or some kind of word play.

"Make a hash" = "break" is the iffy part for me.

Good cryptic, good solve. smile

clue time: The direct is more an example than a definition.
