My perfect breakfest.

Recommended Posts

Not if the scrapple comes from Pennsylvania Dutch area.B| Hogs are organically raised, and they don't use any questionable uh, parts, in the making of the scrapple.

Heres how they make it: Stew pork in water with sage & black pepper & salt. Strain off the meat & grind it really fine. Combine it with the broth and thicken with corn meal & form into loaves.

To serve, you slice some off about 1/2 inch thick & sautee it in oil. Yum.B|

For me its a 6-egg omlet with ham, cheese, diced tomatos, cheese, tabasco sauce, cheese, salsa, cheese on top and cover it all with chili.

Add to that a side of grits with salt and butter and about a pot of really strong coffee (served black).



When I saw the subject line I immediatly thought to myself exactly what you wrote only I put in mushrooms, suasage, bacon and jalapenos. Now I am hungry and don't have the makings for such a kickass omelet.>:(

put the eggs in a blender and you'll cut it to four or five



That's a good idea. You know I add about 1/2 a cup of whole milk


The only thingt that milk does is add steam to the mix. Instead of 1/2 milk, add 3 tablespoons of water for the same effect. I've gotten 2 wives and multiple girlfiends by being able to cook breakfast and give good backrubs:)
Now, I just give non-sexual back rubs which makes me a bunch of female pals
I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried

it comes in a brown brick if you get it from the Pennsylvania Dutch.

anyway there's nothing in scrapple that isn't in sausage. scrapple is if anything lower in fat because some of it is cornmeal.

they add nitrites & preservatives & shit to "adjust" the color of sausage to get you to buy it in the supermarket.

one thing I've found about eggs: the hippy dippy environmentalist types are right about this one.


Go & spend an extra buck or two at the local health food co-op on those organic, free-range, locally-raised chicken eggs.

IT IS WORTH IT!! The price difference for a dozen eggs is less than you'd pay for a bad beer, and the taste and color is WAY better than the mass produced bland pale crap eggs in the supermarket.

Try it yourself & see if I'm right.
B| of course, once you see that color & taste the flavor, you will no longer bother with those "just egg-white" omelets ever again. The extra color & flavor come mostly from the yolk.



You ARE right. I used to work with a guy that had chickens and he kept them very happy. His eggs were the BEST!!!!

wow , we've had only one woman reply in this thread.

This re-enforces my stereotype about men & women:A good breakfast is SO important to men.
Whereas many women would just as soon skip breakfast entirely, or just have a coffee.

I am totally a breakfast person. I must have protein in the morning. I am a cranky, cranky biotch without breakfast. (Shaddup those of you who say "how is that different from normal?")

Of course, other women *might* have been turned off by the last "perfect breakfast" thread. :P

Thrice-boiled bacon. Tepid, weak coffee. Wilted melon in a disappointing bed of old lettuce. Soggy bread-like things that the gum-chewing, near-toothless waitress describes as "biscuits."

That's breakfast ! :P

Actually, how about Moravian Sugar Cake, fresh canteloupe, crisp bacon and Sumatra coffee (black, hot and strong) ?

Does that work ? :D

actually scrapple is not a "northeast" food. It's Mid-Atlantic. Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania. (edited to add: maybe also in Delaware, but since Delaware is a fictional state, there's no way to know)

They've never heard of Scrapple in New York or New England.
:P

I'm not going anywhere with this... I'm just opening the door... :)



Damn! I cannot make it that easy for you. :P




So you prefer sausage in the morning?

The reason I've said Delaware is fictional is this:

Just as no one in New York or New England (connecticutt, rhode islan, massachusettes, vermont, new hampshire, maine) has ever heard of scrapple, so too has no one in ANY of the 49 states ever heard of anyone from Delaware.:P ever even seen a Delaware license plate?? no, I thot not.:P

I have actually known people from Delaware and seen the license plates.

But, in high school in Virginia (where we did have scrapple), I had a theory going that South Dakota was fictional, for the same reasons.

Let me guess: the people you knew were toll booth collectors on I-95!!!

Delaware is a government HOAX! They were desperate for money so they created a fake state, but actually all it is is the numerous toll booths on I-95 in "Delaware" as you drive through there to some place real.:P why do you think there are no state taxes for delaware??? because it isn't a frikkin' state, that's why!! Friggin mob lives in NY, Philadelphia, Boston. This was the only way to get them to pay taxes was when they were transporting dead bodies across state lines.
:P

it's all a conspiracy i tell u.

My perfect breakfast would definitely be the buffet served at the Mauna Lani Bay resort in hawaii. But since I can't be there I'll settle for a 3 cheese, bell pepper, olive, green chili, and avocado egg white omelet, hash browns well done, a pumpkin muffin and a tall glass of ice cold diet coke.
