Breakfast at dinner time

Making:

Breakfast for dinner!

Here's what I have:

3 strips Bacon 
2 Eggs (3rd not used)
1 tbsp Butter cut in half 
1 tbsp Heavy cream 
1/4 cup Carrot 
1/4 cup Potato 
1 tbsp Sweetie pepper 
1 tbsp Chives 

Not pictured:
mozzarella cheese 
Salt 
Pepper 
Paprika 
Garlic powder 
Onion powder

Preperation:

I preheat the oven to 375 on convection setting. Next the bacon was put on a v rack to cook and set aside. Next 2 of the eggs, the heavy cream, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic, and onion powder together in a bowl. Combine well. One Ramekin was greased and the mixture was put into the Ramekin and topped with some chives.

This went into the oven first. Halfway through cooking the eggs I sprinkled a little mozzarella and dropped four sweetie Peppers into the middle of the egg cup.

The bacon went in 17 minutes before cooking was complete

While those are cooking I got the cast iron hot and put half the butter in. First into the cast iron, the carrots which were cooked until they had a brownish Edge to them. Next in, the rest of the butter and the potatoes. Cook together until both carrots and potatoes were soft with a brown edge to them. 

A little bit of paprika, onion and garlic powder along with the juice from the sweetie Peppers (about 1 tbsp) was added to the potato /carrot hash and cooked down, salt and pepper to taste. 

After plating I topped the potato/carrot hash with chives. The rest of the sweetie peppers were dropped into the egg cup along with some chives. These sunk as the egg deflated a bit.

The plate:

And again  :)

This dinner breakfast was a good protein punch to offset the veggie loaded dinner from yesterday. I'd like to try the egg baked a little softer and maybe with a sweet flavor next time I make this meal.

Bacon butter!

Making: Today I'll be making bacon butter. Whenever I make bacon I save the grease. Now that I have enough it will be turned into batches of bacon butter.  I used about 2.75 sticks of butter total. Cut into jars then I let them sit until the butter was close to room temperature.  The bacon fat I have collected (Stored in the refrigerator) was heated in bits over a double boiler until liquified but not too hot.  The melted bacon fat was poured over the butter. You can use a strainer to get rid of and chunky bits and then mixed until well incorporated. The smaller jars have just over 3 oz butter. The bigger jar has 4.3 oz butter.  Here are the finished jars. These will be stored in the fridge and used to cook veggies and sear meats. You could also put herbs in the jar for different flavors. - Kris

While the water was coming to a boil I coated the pork chops in the spice and set them aside.   The potatoes were steamed for 10 minutes at med-high heat first then the heat was turned to warm. I put the asparagus into the steamer basket with them and put the lid back on the pot. I used my cast iron pan, heating it up (high temp) before placing half of the butter into it. Pork chops were cooked in the pan, turned down to medium heat for a total of 8 minutes, 4 minutes for each side. Once they were done I took them out of the pan ...
