  1. (Not this early in the morning, of course!)

    2 large eggs, over easy (or basted). 4 strips of crispy bacon. Cheese
    toast.

    I like to use french bread, fairly thick slices, for the cheese toast. Top
    with whatever cheese you like. (Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack is nice.)
    Slide it under the broiler until the cheese is bubbly and the toast is
    crispy.

    Top each slice with 2 pieces of bacon, criss crossed (broken in half if you
    need to) and then carefully top each slice with an egg. Season with salt &
    pepper. Hot sauce, etc. available if desired. Voila! A nice fattening,
    uh, I meant filling! breakfast for two 🙂

    Sounds good! Here's what I had:

    About a sixth of a ham steak, cut into chunks and cooked with butter in a
    frying pan until the chunks just started to change color. The ham chunks
    came out of the pan and three eggs mixed with some buttermilk, salt, and
    pepper went in and got scrambled. (This was all over medium-high heat in a
    nonstick pan.) Toward the end, I sprinkled on some queso fresco. Served with
    three toasted honey-wheat English muffins, peach-ginger jam, and a
    "tropical" salsa I bought last night: pineapple, mango, onion, red
    jalapeño pepper, cilantro, and lime juice are the ingredients. I had
    orange juice and Blue Mountain coffee with milk to drink.

    Same as yesterday, day before, day before that...... a bowl o oatmeal porridge
    and a latte. This morning I had some toast with strawberry jam, English style,
    make the toast and let it sit in the toaster after it was ready so t gets nice
    and crisp.

    This sounds like just my cup of tea! I like the idea of
    using french toast. I think I'll give this a try soon.
    Yum.

    Minced onion and bell pepper, small dice ham, 2 eggs, several dashes

    Hmmm... Livermush. That makes me think of what my grandmother called "liver
    pudding". Hers was made with pork liver and a bit of ground pork, simmered
    with onion in water to just barely to cover. When the meat was done I think
    she removed the onion, then ground the meat, seasoned it with salt, black
    pepper, red pepper flakes, and sage. The mixture was moistened with the
    cooking liquid enough so that it could be packed into a loaf pan and chilled
    'til firm. It would be eaten sliced, either cold or fried.

    Is this anything at all like what you mentioned?

    I've never put buttermilk in eggs to scramble. What
    does buttermilk do for the eggs? It sounds interesting.

    I cook scrambled eggs over fairly high heat; the buttermilk keeps them from
    drying out too quickly. It also provides a little bit of a tangy flavor.

    Hmmmm....maybe tomorrow I'll try scrambled eggs with buttermilk, smoked
    salmon, and dill...

  10. My favorite breakfast and my last meal request. It's not good for the
    body, but it's good for the soul:

    scrambled eggs, bacon, biscuits, gravy, sliced tomatoes, orange juice,
    coffee with cream.

    Wow, I can't believe that I finally found someone who actually knows what
    liver pudding is. When I tell people about it, they look at me like they
    think I'm crazy. Or they'll say, "Oh, you mean liver paté," whereupon I
    reply that I do not. My grandmother lived in NE Mississippi, and quite a
    few folks there make it at home.

    I've never seen liver pudding or liver mush for sale, in fact, I always
    thought they were just homemade products. I rather doubt that Neese's
    would ship a small order all the way to Arizona, but I've sent them an
    email to find out. I'd like to try most of their products. BTW, have you
    tried their C-Loaf? What exactly is it? They don't give a very good
    description of it.

    Cheers!

    i've never tried the c-loaf wayne. i haven't even seen it in the stores around
    here. a lot of those products are highly micro-regional. the product i buy is
    indeed liver pudding. i've always called it liver mush and there is a
    micro-regional variation called liver mush, but growing up, we always called it
    liver mush. if i run across some c-loaf, i'll be sure to snag some, eat it and
    give you a full report. 🙂

    Sounds really good. I've never put buttermilk in eggs to scramble. What
    does buttermilk do for the eggs? It sounds interesting.

    May give them a slight (very slight, mayhaps imperceptible) tang.
    Other than that bout the same as milk or cream. A little richer
    than milk. I do it a lot. I use whatever milk-like products
    may be in my fridge whenever I'm making eggs - milk, cream,
    buttermilk, sour cream, yogurt, etc.

    wayne, quick update on the c-loaf. i was driving to town today and i drove by
    this old country store that carries a full line of neese's sausage and they had
    c-loaf. it's basically pig stomach sausage with spices and some filler. they guy
    told me it was the same thing as liver pudding except instead of the pigs liver,
    the stomach is used. i didn't get any but i'm certainly not above trying it. one
    of these days that report will come

    i've never tried the c-loaf wayne. i haven't even seen it in the
    stores around here. a lot of those products are highly
    micro-regional. the product i buy is indeed liver pudding. i've
    always called it liver mush and there is a micro-regional variation
    called liver mush, but growing up, we always called it liver mush. if
    i run across some c-loaf, i'll be sure to snag some, eat it and give
    you a full report. 🙂

    Thanks, A.C.

    Catch ya later.

    wayne, quick update on the c-loaf. i was driving to town today and i
    drove by this old country store that carries a full line of neese's
    sausage and they had c-loaf. it's basically pig stomach sausage with
    spices and some filler. they guy told me it was the same thing as liver
    pudding except instead of the pigs liver, the stomach is used. i didn't
    get any but i'm certainly not above trying it. one of these days that
    report will come

    Hmmm... That's interesting. I'd be willing to try it. Ldt me know what
    you think if you try it. Sure wish they had wider distribution.

    Cheers!

    Is it made with liver?
