Heart Attack Breakfast Burrito...
After a rough night out for a friends bday, I knew exactly what would be the cure all for all that hurt. Bacon. I fried up 1lb of hormel black label bacon in a large cast iron skillet. 1 tortilla was cut up and fried into tortilla chips in the bacon grease. Feeling quite hungry I also fried a small Cloverdale(local) sausage patty in said grease. Although a breakfast burrito would be able to stand alone, filled only with bacon, I needed more. I partially drained liquid bacon goodness from the pan and added 3 beaten eggs with a small amount of pepper. When the eggs were done, it was slapped together on a plate with 3 strips of bacon and melted cheese. Ridiculously strong black coffee, a bottle of Cholula, 2 ibuprofen, and a extra plate of bacon(just in case) and I was off. Temp outside was a balmy 20*f. Springfield XD9sc with 1 reload, and a well used (circa 1960) butcher knife help round out the setting and life is good.

I love breaksfast burritos. Next time, roll the burrito up with all the goodies, then put it on a hot skillet for about a minute per side. Crispy browned crusty goodness. Here's my meager breakfast today: Bacon Eggs fried in bacon grease with cheddar on top Grits with home-made pepper jelly Java Arteries.....slowly........closing...........aaarggggh......  |
