Smoked Salmon, Egg and Avocado Biscuits

Ingredients:

1 can of buttermilk biscuits *this recipe uses 6 of them*

4 eggs

Smoked salmon

Shredded cheese

2 avocados

A little bit of red onion

1 lime

Garlic powder

Dill weed

Black pepper

Salt

Vegetable oil

Egg wash:

1 egg

2 tablespoons water

Preheat oven 350 degrees. Beat your egg wash ingredients in a separate small bowl. Put 6 biscuits on a baking pan and lightly glaze over them with the egg wash. This gives them the shiny golden effect when they are done. Bake 15-17 minutes until golden brown.

Then whisk eggs, pieces of smoked salmon, finely diced onions and cheese.

*I used about half of this onion slice then diced it really small.

I didn’t really measure I just put the stuff in so go based on what you like. More or less cheese or more or less smoked salmon. Season with dill, a little salt, pepper and garlic.

*If you decide you want more salmon ease up on the salt because smoked salmon is already salty.

In a medium sized skillet, add a little vegetable oil. Let it heat up on medium heat. You will not scramble these eggs. Instead you will fry one side golden then flip and fry the other side golden.

Sit aside on a separate plate. I used a cup to carve out round cookie like shapes to fit nicely on the biscuit. Any portions left will be for the remaining biscuit. Sorry somebody’s won’t be as cute as the others. 😭

While your egg mixture is frying mash up the 2 avocados and mix with the juice from one lime.

Now put together the biscuit. On one side the egg patty and the other spread the avocado mash.

And boom! This was a fun, tasty and an interesting breakfast to make with random stuff I had! The kids loved it!

Chicken Breast with Tomato Sauce

Ingredients:

2 lbs chicken breasts

1/2 cup wine

3/4 cup olives

1 can diced tomatoes

1 can tomato paste

1/4 cup buttermilk

6 cloves garlic chopped

Oregano

Basil

Garlic powder

Sea salt

Black pepper

Vegetable oil

In a large bowl, season chicken breasts on each side with basil, oregano, sea salt, garlic powder and black pepper.

Chop the garlic cloves.

On medium heat, sautee the garlic in a little vegetable oil.

Add the chicken breast and start flipping until they are almost cooked through. Note if you have thinner cuts it will be a lot faster.

Finally add wine, paste, buttermilk, diced tomatoes and olives. Stir and toss until the sauce has mixed well. Allow to simmer on low. Sprinkle more salt, basil, oregano and black pepper to taste. Simmer for about 5 minutes or until chicken breast cooked through.

I served with a simple salad.

Pickled Red Onions

1 large red onion sliced thin

3/4 cup of water

1/2 cup white vinegar

1/2 cup red wine vinegar

2 tablespoons honey

2 teaspoons sea salt

1 serrano pepper finely chopped *for spice*

In a small bowl combine the above ingredients. Place in the refrigerator for a minimum of 2 hours. These onions add a tangy accent to entrees or on sandwiches. Feel free to get creative.

Udon noodles

Mash up garlic, chili peppers, star anise and cloves into a paste.

Place the chicken on medium heat in olive oil. Chop the onion in large sections and saute it, the paste and lemongrass with the chicken. Sprinkle salt and pepper. Brown up the chicken.

Fill stock pot with water. Add tomato, green pepper, kombu, and bay leaves. Pour in soy sauce. Season with turmeric, curry powder, chicken bouillon, sea salt and pepper.

Let it boil for an hour on medium heat. Then add in coconut milk, fish sauce and Thai basil. You may need to add more water too. Let the soup boil for another hour. I added an additional spoonful of chili paste for extra heat. Taste to make sure the salt and pepper is to your preference.

Separately make Udon noodles and combine your bowl.
