Hot Breakfast. Or lunch. Or dinner. We ran out of eggs today because the snow kept me from getting my grocery run in this past weekend. That is when it is especially comforting to use the Diner system. Even if something happens like that snow, I know I have plenty of food in the freezer to tide us over. With no fresh eggs, I was still able to make a delicious breakfast.
If you have Minute Sausage in the freezer, this is a snap. You could make it up from fresh too. Just brown the sausage. Stir in a brick of cream cheese and a can of green chilies. Mine aren't in the can, but are also in the freezer. I buy a food service size can and freeze them in small batches. Huge savings there.
For the roll up, I just spread a little of the sausage and cream cheese mixture on a Lavash bread and rolled it up. I am not eating any bread products right now, so I just spooned some on a plate for me. The carby boys had theirs over toast. Yummy stuff and very filling too.
Great idea on the green chilies. I had never thought about that. I use a ton of them, and they're expensive little devils.
ReplyDeleteThe brand I buy is Casa Fiesta. It is 99 ounces for $8.69 cents at my local grocery store. Compare that to a dollar or more for 4 ounces. Definitely worth the time to freeze some up in ice cube trays and muffin tins.
ReplyDeleteDEFINITELY!!! Thanks a million - I've put it on my grocery list
