I had a couple of slices of brisket left over from yesterday. Yeah, not sure how that happened, either. This morning I decided to make us omelets in the waffle maker, a wafflet. I diced up some onion, red pepper, the brisket, cheese and placed them in the waffle maker. Then I poured the eggs on top and closed the top. When the wafflet came out, they were pretty and fluffy. But, they quickly deflated. They may not be very pretty to look at but, they were very tasty.

I don't cook much, I leave that to my wife. That's why I rarely search out this part of the forum. I have skills, mainly from Boy Scouts, camping with family, Coleman stove, Dutch oven on a campfire type stuff. But I know the skills do transfer to the kitchen.

I do cook breakfast for myself every morning, I'm an early riser, my wife is not. Standard for me is 3 eggs scrambled, 2 strips of pre-cooked bacon in the microwave. I know some of you will only eat bacon from a hog you killed and butchered by hand, yesterday, and it has to be sliced 1-1/2" thick. You do you, I'll do me.

One of my favorites is a sausage and egg sandwich on a fresh hamburger bun. Gotta be fresh bread. Sausage is a nice change of pace from the bacon. Pat out the sausage same diameter as the bun, but kinda thin. Add two scrambled eggs and it'll keep you full until lunch time.

I stumbled across this video below a few weeks ago and for me, the light bulb came on. The video doesn't need to be 15 minutes long so here's the TL/DR version.

Slice a patty of sausage. Put it in the frying pan with about a silver dollar size dollop of olive oil. Add one pat of butter. Cook the sausage over medium heat and chop it up like you would for tacos. When the sausage is just about done, add scrambled eggs. It's that simple. I'm sure many of you are probably doing this or something very similar. Like I said, this was like a slap across the forehead for me.

I guess it's what some would call a one pot meal. Biggest thing for me is I don't have to cook the sausage, clean the pan then cook the eggs. Only one clean up. The sausage doesn't spatter like it does when I'm cooking a patty. I don't need a lid for the frying pan and there is no spatter on the stove to clean up.

One thing I have fallen in love with is a silicone spatula I picked up at the Dollar Store. Nothing sticks to it, there's no damage to the non stick surface of the 8" frying pan that I use for breakfast every day and clean up is a breeze because like I said, nothing sticks to it.

I had salmon eggs Benedict this morning at the hotel restaurant.

I pulled out the English muffins and just ate the poached eggs and smoked salmon over wilted spinach with hollandaise sauce.

It was pretty delicious.
