But, every now and then, I check to see
what’s leftover in the fridge…and instead of a breakfast, I make up or create a
brunch for myself. (Note: Laurie usually avoids these creations!)
The other day, I took some leftover pasta
with peas and chicken, browned it in the frying pan…covered it with a couple of
slices of pepper jack cheese and then I placed two over-easy fried eggs on
top.
To complete this brunch, I added my usual
shots of Tabasco. The eggs and cheese
made the dish nice and creamy with the Tabasco and pepper jack cheese adding a
bit of pop to the creation. I’d rate
this brunch at about an 8.0 on my flavor scale.
Just yesterday, I put together another
brunch creation. This time I started
with a couple of Laurie’s English muffins...toasted and buttered. Then I fried/reheated a slab of leftover
meatloaf. It too was a ‘creation’, as we’d
experimented with taco flavored pork sausage instead of the usual hot pork
sausage with the ground beef in Laurie’s most recent meatloaf.
OK…It’s an English muffin topped with a
slice of meatloaf, then covered with chili sauce that is normally used with hot
dogs, plus a layer of shredded sharp cheddar cheese and then finally topped
with 2 over-easy eggs. (I did add Tabasco after taking the photos) This brunch
topped my flavor scale at an 8.9…a bit higher than my previous creation!

I never promised pretty or light
brunches! Thanks for stopping by and
risking heartburn and clogged arteries with me. I’ll have to eat healthy foods for a couple of
days just to detox the system…
Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
I believe you've arrived.
ReplyDeleteThe description of your last brunch creation had me gasping for air as I read your description of it to the Silver Fox :-). Eat with gusto, my friend and have a great weekend while you are at it. Blessings...Mary
ReplyDeleteYou always make me hungry Dave. I sure miss English muffins, here in Italy they don't sell them. I make them at home though and they come out quite good. I see you'be been to New Zealand...I would love to go there but I'm afraid of flying. Looking at your pictures though was like a virtual tour. What a gorgeous place! Thank you for stopping by. Have a nice Sunday Dave!
ReplyDeleteI love this Dave and Im hungry of course!!! take care!
