Stuffed Up Omelet... Leftover Series #2

No No, this omelet does not have a cold. It's just all stuffed with stuff and stuffing and stuff. Ya know.. stuff. Like, stuff stuff.

I have to tell you that my leftovers are dwindling quickly... I aced the mashed potato's cuz they just passed up their prime. And I finished of the stuffing. I do, however, have loads of turkey left. So the next few days it will be turked-out omelets. And will NOT include anything else Thanksgiving related. Because I am over it...

Stuffed Up Omelet

Ingredients:

(mostly leftovers)

potatoes (I used cubed/fried)
Mac and Cheese
stuffing
gravy
breakfast sausage (patties)
Basic Omelet

Brown your sausage and set aside. Warm up your leftovers all together. Be sure to get your Mac and Cheese nice and hot, as this is the "cheese" in your recipe. Do up your omelet and add ingredients on the flip, preferably Mac and Cheese side down. Flip and cover in gravy. Have a large appetite for this one!

Sausage patties just a sizzlin' away

Leftovers... *sigh*

Close up of leftovers. WHY? I don't know.

I only used about 1/2 of what I warmed up... stuffing is so stuffy!

Served with a fresh, juicy pear. NOMS.

This is halfway through, and where I stopped. Even my voracious appetite could not conquer this one. Or I am totally over leftovers. Or maybe because I ate 2 of these:

BONUS RECIPE!!!!

These are fine little appetizers my husband calls "croissandles." Passed on from my friend Jennifer Paris. They are decadent and compliment all meals, but none better than breakfast!

Ingredients:

1 Roll Pillsbury Croissants (I use the big size ones)

1/2 roll Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage

1/2 package cream cheese

6 small squares cheddar cheese

Brown sausage till completely done, chopping with spatula until it is fine. Add cream cheese to pan, turn to low-medium heat and melt cream cheese with sausage until they are together as one. Add one piece cheese onto your rolled out Croissants (see package) and spoon mixture on top of cheese. Roll up and fold in the sides. Bake according to package directions. DIVINE.

You should eat this... really.

(tip of the day would normally be here, but I am fresh out of tips today)

My Review:

Even though breakfast sausage brought this half dead filling to life again, I am really over the whole Thanksgiving feast. I really did not enjoy this omelet enough to hoot and holler over it. But it was better then being reheated and stuck on a plate. The Croissandles on the other hand were NOMS and that's what made me smile this morning!!!













All American Omelet

What is the first image that came to your mind when you read that title "All American?" I would put money down that you conjured up a vision of sitting at a baseball game waving a blue and red pennant and munching on a hot dog. Or perhaps, you envisioned a succulent, steaming apple pie cooling in the window at your Grandmother's house. Or a giant slice of watermelon dripping down your child's hand as they run circles around the picnic table at your Fourth of July family reunion. Let me tell you what I see when I think of "All American:" I think of a hearty meatloaf served with a heaping bowl of mashed potatoes and gravy. Biscuits and sweet peas swimming in a pool of butter entice the family to the table with eager anticipation.

Your family's meatloaf recipe is a personal as a dish can get. Your meatloaf recipe was handed down from Grandparents passed...tweeked and rejuvenated to fit the liking of the individual member's of your own immediate family. It is the ultimate comfort food. The most requested birthday meal. One could argue that this is the meal that is sure to bring every member to the table with a smile.

Reader's, get your meatloaf on tonight. And tomorrow relive the whole experience again by putting it in an omelet.

#*#*#*#* TIP OF THE DAY: Eggs are only 70 calories a piece!Not too shabby!  #*#*#*#

My Review:

The ultimate guilty pleasure. Adding eggs and cheese to my already favorite meal took it to another level of satisfaction. The sheer size and depth of the omelet left me full and fat and sassy. Perfect for a lazy Sunday.
