Hungry Man Breakfast

There are a few things I like to always keep on hand in case of emergencies. Miracles can be created from eggs, milk, onions and your pantry. You can pull this meal together with anything left in your fridge. It can be altered a million different ways, but the basics remain the same. Here's my simple breakfast for hungry men and boys: eggs studded with fresh veggies and a surprising twist with my easy soda biscuits. 

Easy Soda Biscuits

I call these guys soda biscuits, because the magic is in the fizz. Your fizz can be any type of semi-clear, carbonated beverage -- sweet beer, ginger ale, anything you have on hand, really. From there, the biscuits can be altered in a million different ways. I like to add a bit of garlic powder and cheddar, a fan favorite. If garlic cheddar biscuits aren't your thing, you have a huge problem and your life must be tremendously sad, BUT you can add anything from jalapeños to dried cherries to insert your own brand of happiness. 

Here's the best part, you don't actually have to measure anything. For those of you who have even more than mediocre baking skills, you will be horrified at these life-hack biscuits. However, for those of you who understand that baking is not merely mixing and measuring but a horrifying throwback to high school science experiments, these biscuits are for you. 

Ingredients

1/4 cup of butter

2 cups of Bisquick

3/4 cup of beer*

1/4 cup of sour cream

Handful of grated cheddar cheese

1 tbsp of garlic powder

Preparation Instructions

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Melt your butter in a 9x9 pan in your preheating oven. It's ok if the butter browns slightly.

Measure all your ingredients into a bowl and mix until combined. You don't want to over mix these biscuits. They should still be a bit lumpy. Drop the biscuits into your preheated pan with the melted butter. It should make 9 cheddary delicious biscuits. 

Bake for 10-12 minutes.

*if you use beer for your fizz, be sure to avoid super hoppy beers. I learned the hard way that they bake up incredibly bitter. Stick to a lighter, clearer beer and your biscuits will be sweet and delicious. 

Hungry Man Eggs

While your biscuits are baking, you can quickly throw your eggs together. Everything should come together at the same time and fairly easily!

Ingredients

2 tbps of butter

1 small onion

2 large green bell pepper

Salt to taste

1/3 cup of Velveeta cheese

6 eggs

1/4 cup of milk

Lowry's Season Salt to taste

Preparation Instructions

In a cast iron pan, melt your butter. Chop your onion and bell pepper. Add to the melted butter and cook until softened but not browned. Salt to taste. Once the veggies have softened, add the cheese to the pan and melt into the veggies. 

Whisk together the eggs, milk and season salt. 

Add the eggs to the pan and fold into the veggies and cheese. Cook until perfectly tender and delicious. 

Serve your eggs with the warm biscuits and watch your friends clamor for the recipes. You'll always be able to whip up an amazing breakfast with these easy go tos. Alter to your heart's content and enjoy!
