Happy Sunday! I made the most awesome wheat-free breakfast sandwich today. This morning I got up early (it was only 45 degrees...brrrrr) and began working on a humongous pot of chili for dinner since all 3 of my kids are coming this evening. I got it all prepped and into what my hubby refers to as my "mama-jama" sized
8-quart crock pot. Most of the time I use my 6-quart crock pot, but since the whole family will be here and I'm hoping to have some leftovers, too...I decided to use the big one. To be completely honest, I initially tried putting it all in my 6-quart and when it reached the top and I still had a lot of stuff left to add...I had to transfer everything over to the big one...errrrr!!! My chili is using over 4-1/4 pounds of beef if that gives you a hint as to the enormity of this pot of chili! I will post more on that later on. I am so excited to share my Bagel Egg n' Bacon Breakfast Sandwich with you now. I had a late breakfast since my chili expedition took much longer than I anticipated this morning. Yesterday, I made
Maple Pecan Bagel-nuts and while I ate one in the traditional manner for yesterday's breakfast (spread with cream cheese)...this morning, I wanted to make a nice big breakfast sandwich with one of them since that would be what holds me until dinner this evening. I oven roasted some Maverick Ranch bacon this morning (nitrite/nitrate free), fried some organic eggs, thinly sliced sharp cheddar cheese and put it all together and made a breakfast sandwich so good that it would even make the wheat and grain eaters cry with envy! ;-) No need for tears though because I would be more than happy to share. Anyway, I sliced one of my
Maple Pecan Bagel-nuts (heated it in the oven), and then topped it with bacon, fried egg and cheese...and the slightly sweet maple pecan flavors in the bagel combined with the roasted bacon, egg and cheddar was pure heaven! I snapped a few photos for you to see below to give you an idea of what else you could do with these bagels if you decide to make them. Enjoy!

| To show you how nice they hold up...one bite down the hatch, and many more to go... |

| Two bites down...and the cheese keeps oozing... |

| Almost finished and that bagel has held up like...well, like a REAL bagel -- so, please remind me again what I need wheat for??? Answer: NOTHING! ;-) |

| This is wheat-free beauty at it's finest... |

Proof that there really is life after wheat!
THE END! |
Hi, Do you have a savory wheat-free bagel recipe? Such as - onion, garlic, cheese, everything, etc? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous! Yes, I actually do -- it is my "Bagel/Squagel" recipe -- if you look at yesterday's post of my Maple Pecan Bagel-nuts, notice I have "Bagel/Squagel" highlighted in a different colored text -- click on that and it will take you to my savory bagels -- you will see the variations I made. If you want them to be round, use that recipe and just bake them in a donut pan like I did these. Let me know if you have trouble finding it and I'll send you the link! Thanks! :-)
ReplyDeleteGG. OMG that looks like a turtle, the strawberry being the head. You took the first bite out of the *derriere*! That turtle was not potty trained either!
ReplyDeletePlease forgive me GG for being so crude! I just could not resist!
I just love all your recipes. I'm always looking for your Costco finds, and now I'm going to have to look for a donut pan. Tonight I made your cheesy summer squash - my picky husband even likes it! We both like your pizza crust and the cheddar biscuits. I've been sitting here looking through your recipes and I believe next weekend I'll be trying the chicken pot pie! Thanks for your wonderful blog...I'm a big fan!
ReplyDeleteHi GGC,
ReplyDeleteMichael's stores usually have a selection of Wilton products. The store I went to had the doughnut pans. If you go to Michael's web site or look in the Sunday paper, you can even find 40% off coupons!
LOL, Barbara! I will forever have that image when I look at that picture! :-) To be honest with you...it looked like a big spider to me... ;-)
ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous! Thanks so much -- I'm so happy you enjoy the cheesy squash casserole, biscuits and pizza crust. It make it much easier to be wheat and grain free when you find a few favorites to "spruce up" your meals, doesn't it? I'm glad you enjoy the blog and hope you enjoy the chicken pot pie when you get a chance to try it -- it's one of my favorites! :-)
ReplyDeleteHi CyberSis! Thanks for the tip about the Wilton pans at Michaels (and the coupons). I will definitely check them out and pick up another donut pan so I can bake more at the same time. I like Wilton's products! Hope you had a great weekend. :-)
