U Bombs

U Bombs

The FCK U Bombs are disastrously delicious. Named the “U Bomb” because the pork-bacon-cheese combo destroys the Kosher code. It’s worth it. I promise.

Makes 12 bombs

For the base:

For the toppings:

  • 6 slices of cheddar cheese, cut into quarters
  • 4 strips of bacon, diced
  • 15 – 20 picked jalapeños, diced

Cookware:

  • 12 hole cupcake pan
  • aluminum foil
  • flat cookie tray

What to do:
20121126-220601.jpgPreheat oven 350° F.

Cook that bacon in the oven until it’s nice and crispy. Dice it nice.

Fill each cupcake hole with pulled pork 1/3 of the way and top with egg.

Place cupcake pan in oven and remove when eggs have been cooked through (about 8 – 10 minutes).

20121126-220623.jpgHere’s the tricky part. Grease a piece of aluminum foil that is big enough to cover the entire cupcake pan and place over the top. Take the cookie tray and place face down on top of the aluminum foil. Press together and flip so that the contents of the cupcake pan is now sitting onto of the cookie tray. Life the cupcake pan away and wash.

Place two cheese squares on top of each pork egg creation and sprinkle with bacon.

Toss the cookie sheet back into the oven until the cheese has melted.

Sprinkle with jalapeño.

Serve and enjoy your food comas!

Breakfast Goblets

Breakfast Goblets

Makes 12

For the base:

  • 12 wonton wrappers

For the goodness:

  • 8 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped or minced
  • ½ yellow onion, diced
  • 1 to 2 tbs olive oil OR butter
  • 10 – 12 pickled jalapeño, diced (I liked pickled, because they are saltier)

For the toppings:

  • 3 or 4 strips of bacon
  • 1 avocado

Cookware:

  • 12 hole cupcake pan
  • frying pans (1 for turkey, 1 for bacon)

What to do:

  1. Preheat oven to 350° and cook that bacon crispy good.
  2. Warm olive oil / butter and minced garlic on frying pan and sauté onions until slightly brown. Then toss in jalapeño.
  3. Whisk milk and eggs together and scramble in with the oniony/jalapeño/garlic/butter goodness on frying pan.
  4. Grease cupcake pan, push in wonton wrappers and bake until corners brown and the whole of each wonton is crispy (need to do this because the egg will prevent the wonton from crisping later on and no one enjoys what I like to call “sog factor”).
  5. Remove cupcake pan and fill each wonton wrapper with scrambled egg goodness. Top with cheese quarter and then sprinkle bacon on top.
  6. Put the cupcake pan back in the oven and bake until cheese is melted.
