Potato/Stuffing Breakfast Cake

Leftovers! Sometimes it is easier to reuse them, than reheat them. Let's face it, the kids are tired of reheated food. Yet you can recreate some leftover items into new meals. Here is a simple one from your Turkey Dinner. Try this for a breakfast treat.

Ingredients

Mashed Potatoes

Stuffing

Bread Crumbs or Semolina Floor

Cracked Pepper

Sea Salt

Slap Your Mama Seasoning (Optional)

Eggs (Beaten)

Combine the stuffing and mashed potatoes into a bowl. Create small flat pancake style patties. Dip the patty in beaten eggs. (This will help keep things together) In an additional bowl, dip into bread crumbs or semolina flour. Heat a skillet coated coconut or olive oil to a medium heat. Drop the patties in the pan, and browns both sides. Add to a plate of sunny side eggs and toast, and you have a wonderful reuse of your leftovers.

Semolina Pizza Dough

Here is a nice recipe for a thin crust pizza dough that I discovered that is easy to make, and change from the ordinary.


Semolina Dough Recipe

Ingredients

2 cups Whitge Flour

1 cup Semolina Flour

Yeast Package (Follow the directions - Warm the yeast in a separate bowl)

1tsp Salt

2 tsp Olive Oil

Add one cup of baking flour, olive oil, and salt in a bowl with the yeast. Mix for about 3 minutes on low beat. Slowly integrate the rest of the flour. Add the semolina last and knead it into the dough for about 5 minutes.

Set aside and cover with a towel while you prepare the rest of your pizza. Should rise within 10-15 mins.

Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza (Semolina Crust)

The kids and I stumbled upon a humdinger of a pizza recipe. All by accident of course. Most of our accidents have led to amazing discoveries of food recipes. That's what being a dad is all about, experimenting with food. Tonight, the kids asked me to make a Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza. I decided to make the dough. I warmed up the yeast and went into the cupboard and blammo....discover I am short on White Flour. However, next the white flour was Semolina Flour. I thought to myself, this might be perfect. A thin crust would be most excellent for a chicken bacon ranch pizza. The crust was amazing, and easier to roll out btw.....Try it, you may like it.

Roll the pizza dough on the pan. Drizzle with olive oil. Layer with chicken, crumbled bacon, and top with the cheese. Drizzle the ranch dressing on the very top.

Horseradish Deviled Eggs

I love deviled eggs. A slight twist that I enjoy is adding horseradish. The bite of horseradish gives the deviled egg experience a nice twist. Simple to make, your kids will love them.

6 hard-boiled eggs

Mayonnaise (Hellman's) 1/4 cup                                             

1 to 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish (1 for a milder taste - 2 for quite a zing)                                               

1/2 teaspoon dill weed (Fresh Is A Nice Twist)                                               

1/4 teaspoon ground mustard                                                                                                

Ground Pepper To Flavor

Paprika (Presentation)                                              

Directions: Hard boil the eggs for 10-12 mins. Set aside and let cool. Remove the shell and slice in half. Remove the yolks and set them in a bowl. Mix all of the ingredients together by mashing them. Using a spoon, fill each egg white with the new amazing mixture you created. Refrigerate before serving.
