What's for Breakfast?
- Thread starter Mama
- Start date
We had company spend the night last weekend and they love biscuits and gravy so that's what I made along with country fried steak, eggs and hash browns. They had to take a nap before they left

I received an email yesterday from the Food Director of Southern Living magazine and they want to put MY multi-grain and granola pancakes recipe in the May 2013 edition of the magazine 
.....I'm pretty excited!
I made them for breakfast this morning along with bacon and scrambled eggs. Wish I had remembered to pick up some fresh blueberries to put in them when I was out yesterday....it takes them to a whole 'nother level!

Speaking of pancakes I'm the one that get's the honer here, the Wife won't even attempt them but they're in reality real easy to make. It's a from scratch mix passed down through the family.
1 cup of flour (I've found virtually any flour will work)
2 tsp baking powder
little sugar
dash salt
Milk
Egg (optional)
bit of cooking oil
Mix in bowl with mixer adding milk until it is the right consistency. Observe batter for some bubbling in batter if it is flat add a bit more baking powder and mix it in. You are now ready to proceed to the griddle.
But the fun really starts before the mixing actually started. With this mix base you can really get creative. I've used pineapple and juice, chunky applesauce, blueberries, pecans, peaches, bacon, apple chunks, and stuff I'm not thinking of in pancake mix and honestly I've never had a failure. It's just that when adding moist components add them before the milk so you don't thin the mixture itself, in effect the moist components replace the milk.
As far as syrup goes 1 cup brown sugar per a cup of water. Bring to boil and then add maple flavoring to taste. As far as I'm concerned it tastes better than the corn syrup on the shelves, it's cheaper and probably not as fattening.

I nuked, peeled and shredded 2 lbs. of potatoes. Sprayed a jumbo muffin tin (6 muffins) with non-stick cooking spray. Gently pressed the shredded potatoes in the tin and up the sides. Sprinkled with salt and pepper and baked at 400° for 35 minutes. Took them out of the oven and put finely diced ham in the bottom of each cup (bacon would have been even better). Topped that with some shredded cheese (Kraft mexican 4-blend) and broke an egg on top. Back in the oven for another 15 minutes. They were really good but I think I'll use bacon and add some chopped chives to the hash browns next time.

I made them this morning. I defrosted shredded potatoes from Trader Joes and put them into a pan that is designed to hold stuffed bell peppers. I shredded cheddar cheese and added some fresh chopped chives along with the bacon.
Two problems. It takes a long time to make and I left the eggs in the oven just a tad too long. I'm thinking that next time I may make the nests the day before and reheat them in the oven. I had a starving husband wondering when breakfast would be ready. What do you think Mama?

Steel cut oats. I replaced a cup of water with a cup of applesauce. Cooked 15 minutes. Added a shredded apple. Cooked another 15 minutes, Removed from heat and added a little cream, brown sugar and cinnamon. Topped with some toasted walnuts. Not the best pic but it sure was tasty.
