Soup for breakfast
Strangely, I find it easiest to launch quickly into a day of effective activity when I start that day with warmed-up soup from the evening before (or the evening before that; the point being merely that it has to be 'there' already, rather than having to be prepared.) Soup is easy and *fast* to warm up, and it's nearly effortless to eat. Also, it's kind of comforting, acting as an internal hot-water bottle once it's in your stomach.
Maybe I should just give up on that German custom of having a couple of slices of bread-with-stuff-on-it for breakfast? That's what I usually eat for breakfast, but I feel it really slows down my start into the day, and I usually don't enjoy it much. A breakfast of bread seems to take me about an hour to prepare and consume. Soup is fifteen minutes, *and* I feel kind of more... energized after it, too.
Hm.

My feeling about breakfast is, whatever works for the individual. My current breakfast is two small frozen, breaded fish-patties; while they're cooking in the oven, I have time to dress, fix my hair, pack my lunch, etc. My friends all say, Fish sticks?!? but it works for me. Soup, OTOH, takes me forever to eat; wouldn't suit me at all.
As you say -- hot, energizing, and it's nutritious. Go for it.
