Potato Crusted Breakfast Pizza

Potato Crusted Breakfast Pizza 

Sunday morning breakfast at the Boyd’s…………Pizza????? Pizza you say……..not the kind that is cold and left over from the night before, but a hot from the oven breakfast pizza. Potato Crusted Breakfast Pizza!

It’s everything from breakfast formed into a pizza. Hash browns (crust), topped with eggs, bacon, and cheese. I have seen recipes for breakfast pizza before, but always on a bread type crust…………..  I guess that is like toast? But I liked the idea of crispy hash browns,  with a nice egg on top, and smokey bacon. The cheese is just an added bonus, after all who doesn’t like cheese. Tim put salsa on his, I’m that ketchup on eggs crazy person, so that was my choice, but we both tasted pre-condiment and it was great. So, whatever your condiment choice, Potato Crusted Breakfast Pizza is a nice change of pace for your Sunday breakfast.

Maybe my site should have been called What the “Forks” for Dessert?……..hmmmm. My renewed love of baking has me making desserts……ALOT!!!!!

After making Corned Beef Tacos and Rueben Pizza, I had one Guinness Stout beer left from all the corned beef I cooked………Just toss the corned beef into a cockpot and cover it with the beer……..no muss…….no fuss. Except for that extra beer. Tim and I are teetotalers, so what to do with that beer? Chocolate Stout Bundt Cake……… who would think a chocolate cake made with beer………..not me!

Pinterest is a wealth of information. I came across a recipe for a Chocolate Stout Cake. The original recipes was from Fine Cooking, but I tweaked it just a bit…….I really did not think a beer in a dessert would taste very good, what a surprise …….even the batter was yummy. I know, you are not suppose to eat stuff with raw eggs in it, but in my life time I have eaten copious amounts of raw batter dough, and lived to tell the tale.

But seriously, the  elderly, infants, and those with impaired immune systems should not eat any foods with raw eggs in them due to the risk of Salmonella. 

Back to my little cakes………..they came out moist and the beer must have made the chocolate………more chocolaty. I made mine in individual size, but you can make one big cake in a regular size bundt pan if you wish. A simple chocolate glaze makes the Chocolate Stout Bundt Cake an elegant looking, chocolate dessert fit for St Patty’s Day or anytime you want a fancy dessert.

Tandoori Chicken Burgers

Tandoori Chicken Burger

The weather might be trying to keep a foothold in winter but, I am ready for Spring!!! This winter has been sooooo long, cold and snowy. I am not a huge winter weather lover, but this year was about more than a girl could stand. I will be putting my boots and winter coat away and no matter what happens, I will not put them on again until November!!!!!

Now, my rant is over, on to Spring talk…….I am ready to grill again. I know…….you can grill all winter if you want too, but, I don’t like to be cold ,so I AM NOT going to stand outside in the cold to grill. Sorry I think that was a rant again…….

Burgers, they beg to be grilled. I did not grill this burger, but will most certainly be making the Tandoori Chicken Burgers again very soon…… on the grill….did you hear that Mother Nature?

I have seen these burgers made with lamb, beef, or chicken, but in an effort to begin eating better, I chose chicken. The bread is Naan, an Indian flatbread, instead of a traditional bun. I am sure you can make the bread yourself, but I have found it readily available at the grocery store.

The Tandoori Chicken Burger is flavor packed, and topped with cucumber, red onion, cilantro and a cool yogurt sauce. Wrapped in the Naan, it makes a healthy alternative to a regular burger.
