Brisket Hash

Leftovers that make you go hmmmm BRISKET HASH Shredded potatoes (bagged) Leftover Brisket (or chicken, pork, turkey) Leftover Broccolini with Shallots (any greens) Poached eggs Salsa Guacamole Jalapeños ETC. For crispy hash browns you have to use oil on your pan or griddle. Spray won’t do the trick. More oil=more crisp. Leave the hash browns down for at least 10 minutes and press them down but don’t check on them. Season with seasoned salt and pepper. Once ready to flip, re-oil the pan to get the other side crispy. Season salt second side and leave for another 10-15 minutes. It will take longer then you’d think.

Waffle with Candied Bacon

Breakfast for dinner is never a bad idea especially with this maple candied bacon crisped on the Traeger! Make your favorite waffles (my family loves Kodiak Cake’s Power cakes that are whole wheat with extra protein). Add bacon and an egg on top with kosher salt, ground pepper, and a lot of maple syrup. Serve with a fruit salad so you don’t feel so guilty. Maple candied bacon- buy extra thick cut bacon (a must). Throw the strips in a bowl with maple syrup and brown sugar and toss until all coated. Lay out on a rack over a cookie sheet and then grind pepper and cayenne pepper if you like spice with your sweet (you do). Grill or bake at 400 until you get it as crispy as you like. You may want to broil the bacon at the end if you like it extra crispy. Finally, a word of WARNING. My daughter was inhaling the bacon on her way to dance last night and started choking. We pulled over and I had to swipe down her throat to…

Hash Brown with Egg and Sriracha Cups

These are great for breakfast, lunch, or dinner and are great leftovers. Spray muffin tins very well with non stick spray. I used store bought pre-shredded hash browns and filled muffin tins 2/3 full making room in middle for filling and pushing potatoes up the sides of tin to make cup. Bake or Traeger at 400-425 for about 30 minutes or until crispy and golden brown. I filled my cups with leftover pulled pork and an egg. When I baked the egg on top it got pretty messy but still tasted great. If you’re making these for guests I would suggest cooking the egg separately and putting on top. Garnish with green onion and Sriracha. *You can use anything you want in these cups..ham, turkey, cheese, scrambled eggs. Whatever you have in your fridge!
