Actually, desayunar(se) is very often reflexive with no change in meaning.

 

More generally, this is often equivalent to the use of the particle "up" in English "I ate up your breakfast."

 I think it's so becouse we spaniards use sometimes fillers like English people.We usually put the word ME but actually isn't necessary at all, maybe we use that to emphacise the expresion.
