Grammatically correct but sounds very strange. Would you say in English "Last week, I ate breakfast and went to London."? I would not. If you want to use the word 朝ご飯, you have got to use a specific date or a "day of the week" word.
And you used one!

Would you still say:
"Last week, I ate donuts and drove to Austin."?
