Breakfast Nachos

I wanted to feature product from one of our generous event sponsors: Cabot Creamery Cooperative. They sent me multiple pounds of shredded cheeses for recipe development. For these, I went with their 4 Cheese Mexican. I tossed around several ideas and the words 'breakfast' and 'nachos' came out of somewhere. So, I ran with it.


But, instead of using chips or tortillas; I decided to make oven roasted potato crisps as the base. And I topped it all with poached eggs because eggs are what really say 'breakfast' to me!

Ingredients

Potato Base
  • 2 organic potatoes, scrubbed and dried
  • freshly ground salt
  • freshly ground pepper
  • olive oil

Toppings
  • 1 can organic pinto beans, drained
  • 1 C refried black beans
  • leftover shredded beef or chicken, optional (omit if vegetarian)
  • shredded cheese (prefer Cabot)
  • sour cream
  • salsa
  • eggs
  • candied jalapeno peppers


Procedure

Potato Base
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Use a mandolin slicer to slice potatoes thin. Place them in a large mixing bowl. Toss to coat with oil, then spread them in a single layer on the baking sheet.


Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and roast for 20 minutes.


After 20 minutes, the potatoes should be crisped, golden, and blistered.

Sprinkle the potatoes with cheese, beans, meat, and more cheese.  Place in the oven and heat through until everything is warm and cheese is melted, approximately 7 minutes.  

While nachos are in the oven, cook eggs; I like to poach them.  When nachos are still warm and gooey, slide eggs onto the top.  

I serve them as is and let everyone put on their own salsa, sour cream, and candied jalapenos, if wanted. Serve immediately.

Connecticut Lobster Rolls, Canned Lobster Bisque, and a 2019 Henry Fessy 'Maître Bonhome' Viré-Clessé #Winophiles

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found."

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce...
