I always cook my potatoes and onions first until they are softened and starting to brown before I add the smoked sausage that you can cut in 1/2 inch rounds or dice it. The smoked sausage and the gravy with the onion flavor and the flaky biscuits are a complete win.

Potato and Smoked Sausage Hash Biscuit and Gravy

Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Prep Time 10 minutes mins
Cook Time 20 minutes mins
Total Time 30 minutes mins
Servings: 4 Servings
Course: Breakfast, dinner, Lunch
Cuisine: American
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 3 Large potatoes, diced
  • 1 Onion, diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 Lb Smoked sausage, sliced or diced
  • Oil for cooking potatoes
  • You can add bell peppers, mushrooms, jalapeños,
For the Biscuits
  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour (spoon and leveled)
  • 1 tsp  salt
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup butter, cold and grated or shortening
  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons cold buttermilk
  • 2 tsp honey
  • melted butter for brushing when out of the oven
For the Gravy
  • 2 tbsp butter, baking drippings or vegetable oil
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 2-3 cups whole milk (add milk to your desired consistency)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Pour enough oil to cover the bottom of a large skillet. I use a seasoned iron skillet. Heat to hot but not smoking and add the potatoes and onions. Brown the potatoes turning to brown on both sides. Cover and cook until the potatoes have softened, but not done. You don’t want them to be mushy because you are going to remove the lid and brown them more. 
  2. Remove the lid, turn your heat to high, a quickly browning  the potatoes turning until you have a crispy potato.  Add the smoked sausage and heat through.
For the Biscuits
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Add the flour, salt, and baking powder to a large bowl. Grate the cold butter into the dry ingredients and with a pastry cutter, two forks or my favorite, your hands, cut the butter into the flour until coarse crumbs form. Make a well in the center of the mixture and add the buttermilk and the honey. Stir just to combine. Do not overwork.Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and gently mold it into a rough looking rectangle using your hands. Fold one side into the center, then the other side. Turn the dough so it’s long horizontally. Gently flatten. Repeat the folding again. Turn the dough so it’s long horizontally once more. Gently flatten. Repeat the folding one more time.Gently roll the dough out with a rolling pin until it’s 1 inch thick. Cut into 3-inch circles. Re-roll any scraps until you have 9-12 biscuits. Arrange in a 10-inch cast iron skillet or close together on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. (Make sure they’re touching.)Brush the tops with a little buttermilk. Bake for 15 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown on top.Brush the tops with butter.
For the Gravy
  1. Add the oil to a skillet. Add the flour and cook about 2 minutes. Then add the milk and whisk to prevent lumping. Cook until thickened adding more milk if needed. Season with salt and black pepper. Cayenne pepper optional.
To Assemble
  1. Split the biscuits in half in individual bowls or plates for the number of servings you are making. Place the bottom of the biscuit down and ladle gravy over. Top with some of the potato and sausage hash with more gravy if you like. Place the top of the biscuit on and enjoy.
    I really like to serve in a bowl with a ladle of gravy to the bottom, add the bottom biscuit, add the hash, more gravy if you like, then top with the lid!! Bon Appetite!

Chorizo Breakfast Tacos with Potato Hash and Fried Eggs

Taco Tuesday started early with these Chorizo Breakfast Tacos with Potato Hash and Fried Eggs. This is Rick Martinez’s recipe from Bon Appetite. I love so many of his recipes and this one is a hit. Ok, so I have to say that the recipe calls for crumpled cotija cheese and I forgot to add!! Well, they were delicious without that! Cotija is a cow’s milk hard cheese that originated in Mexico. It is named after the town of Cotija, Michoacán. If you don’t like feta, use Monterrey Jack or a medium cheddar. Here’s a link for Cotija:https://goto.walmart.com/c/2049504/568835/9383?veh=aff&sourceid=imp_000011112222333344&prodsku=19757593&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fip%2FRancho-Grande-Part-Skim-Cotija-Cheese-10-oz%2F19757593.

I used homemade chorizo that is on the blog. Here’s the link for that recipe: https://the2spoons.com/homemade-chorizo-with-eggs-hashbrowns/. There are great brands at the local super markets that have great Mexican Chorizo which is what you use in this recipe. I’ve used this brand before and it’s good.

Chorizo Breakfast Tacos with Potato Hash and Fried Eggs

Chorizo Breakfast Tacos with Potato Hash and Fried Eggs

Print Recipe
Course: Breakfast, brunch
Cuisine: Mexican
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large spring onion, tops removed, bulb thinly sliced, or 1 small shallot, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • kosher salt
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil, divided
  • 4 oz chorizo, casings removed
  • 1 small yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 1 small russet potato
  • 4 olive oil basted Fried Eggs
  • Warm tortillas, watercress or cilantro, crumbled cotija cheese (you can use Monterrey Jack) lime wedges for serving
Olive Oil Eggs
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • salt and freshly ground pepper

Method
 

  1. Give spring onion, vinegar, and a pinch of salt a good toss in a small bowl. Let sit while you prepare the hash; this will be just enough time to lightly pickle the onion.

  2. Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium skillet over medium. Cook chorizo, breaking up with a wooden spoon and stirring occasionally, until brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer chorizo to a plate with a slotted spoon.

  3. Add yellow onion and garlic to fat in skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 6–8 minutes.

  4. Meanwhile, grate potato on the coarse holes of a box grater; squeeze firmly over sink to remove excess water.

  5. Add potato, chorizo, and remaining 1 Tbsp. oil to skillet. Cook, turning hash occasionally and breaking up with a spoon, until potato is golden brown, cooked through, and crunchy around the edges, 8–10 minutes.

  6. Assemble tacos with hash, fried eggs, tortillas, watercress, drained pickled spring onions, and cotija. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.

Olive Oil Eggs
  1. Heat oil in a medium nonstick skillet (a 10" skillet is perfect for 2 eggs) over medium-high. When oil is shimmering, carefully add eggs one at a time, shaking pan gently after each addition. Cook eggs, shaking pan occasionally to keep them from sticking to each other (a rubber spatula can help nudge them apart if needed), until edges are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Carefully tilt skillet toward you so that oil pools at front edge of pan. Spoon hot oil over egg whites, especially anywhere they are still translucent, while avoiding yolks, until whites are set, about 1 minute more. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate to blot oil; season with salt and pepper.

Easy Egg and Cheese English Muffins with Sausage

Egg and Cheese English Muffins with Sausage

These drool worthy Sausage, Egg and Cheese English Muffins are super easy! There’s cheese folded into the eggs, then again on top. The sausage is a spicy breakfast sausage and I used good ole American cheese, but cheddar or almost any cheese would work.

Egg and Cheese English Muffins with Sausage

Easy Sausage, Egg and Cheese English Muffins

For the eggs I beat them like I’m scrambling eggs. Then pour them into a non stick skillet with butter. Allow the eggs to start to set them lift the edges to allow the eggs to run out to continue to firm up a little.

When the eggs are almost set, add your cheese, fold one side over like making an omelette, then fold from the top over to make a small package. Your cheese is inside melting. I like to place another piece of cheese in the skillet to melt, then top the eggs with it!

Egg and Cheese English Muffins with Sausage

I used Thomas’ English Muffins. I really like these but there are many brands you can get. Here’s a link for the Thomas’ English Muffins https://amzn.to/2tXUaIE.

I like to have english muffins for breakfast because they have less calories than bread. Sometimes I purchase the wheat muffins and they are great.

Here’s another breakfast recipe on the blog! https://the2spoons.com/whole-wheat-bagel-with-smoked-salmon-and-whipped-cream-cheese/

Here’s the easy instructions for these delicious breakfast muffins.

Easy Egg and Cheese English Muffins with Sausage

Print Recipe
Servings: 2 servings
Course: Breakfast, brunch
Cuisine: American
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Separated English Muffins
  • 4 eggs divided into two bowls, beaten with a fork or whisk
  • salt and pepper for the eggs
  • 2 sausage patties smashed to fit the size of the muffin
  • 4 slices of cheese of your choice, I used American, Cheddar would be great
  • 2 tbsp butter to cook the eggs, divided
  • butter to spread on the English muffins after toasted
  • Tabasco or other hot sauce for serving (optional)

Method
 

  1. Place two eggs in separate bowls. Add a pinch of salt and pepper. Beat the eggs with a fork or whisk them to break them up and combine.
  2. Place your sausage patties in a skillet and cook until done.
  3. While the sausage is cooking, cook your eggs two at a time. To cook the eggs, heat one tablespoon butter in a non stick skillet. Pour the eggs in a bowl at a time and allow the eggs to sit until they start to set. When they start to set, with a spatula, lift the sides, tilt your pan and allow the wet eggs to flow out so they will continue to cook. When most of the liquid has set and the top is just still a little wet, lay a slice of cheese onto eggs. Fold one side over like you are making an omelet, then fold over one more time either from the top or bottom, to form a little square. Remove from the skillet and place the other piece of cheese into your skillet. It will immediately start to melt, scoop it up with your spatula and place on top of the cooked eggs. Place in a warm oven if you like so the first will stay warm while you cook the other eggs.
  4. Place your muffins in the toaster, and butter them after they have been toasted. Place the sausage on the muffin bottom, top with your eggs, your Tabasco or other hot sauce. Place the top muffin and enjoy! Yummy!

Everyone knows I love breakfast and these Quick & Spicy Breakfast Tostadas will not disappoint! Layered with black beans, breakfast sausage, chile con queso, then topped with a fried egg and homemade guacamole! The absolute best breakfast!

Spicy Breakfast Tostadas

I used store bought tostadas which makes this breakfast even easier. I used the brand from HEB which is Mi Tienda by HEB. I purchased the Amarillas yellow corn but they have red also. Here’s the link for those https://www.heb.com/product-detail/mi-tienda-amarillas-yellow-tostadas/2275018.

Print Recipe
Course: Breakfast
Cuisine: Mexican, Texmex
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

For the Black Beans
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil

  • 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, finely
  • 1 jalapeno, finely chopped
  • 1 15 oz can black beans, rinsed
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • salt and pepper to taste
Queso
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1 large poblano chile, chopped
  • 3 jalapenos, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, grated
  • 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
  • salt
  • 2 tbsp all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups milk (or more depending on the thickness you desire)
  • 1/2 lb Monterrey Jack cheese, grated
  • 1/2 lb medium or sharp cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1/4 lb velveeta
For the Guacamole
  • 3-4 avocados
  • 1-2 Serrano or jalapeno chile, seeded and finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp diced white onion
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • juice of 1/2 to 1 lemon (I just taste after I add a little)

  • 1 Roma tomato, diced
  • salt to taste
  • fresh ground pepper (optional)
For the Tostadas
  • 2 Crispy Tostadas of your choice (see blog content for suggestions)
  • Black Beans
  • Queso
  • 2 servings of breakfast Sausage browned and crumbled
  • guacamole
  • 2-4 eggs fried sunny side up

Method
 

For the Black Beans
  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, and jalapeño and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 3 minutes. Transfer onion mixture to a food processor and add black beans, lime juice, and ¼ cup water. Season with salt and pepper and process until smooth.

For the Guacamole

  1. If using a molcajete, place your chile, garlic and a little salt in the bottom and grind until the desired consistency of your chile and onions. Add your avocado and mash.  At this point, it is pretty much done but you want to add your lemon and salt to taste.  After you get your seasoning and lemon as you want it, add the tomatoes and combine.  Store refrigerated until ready to use.  

For the Queso
  1. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion, chile, jalapeños, and garlic, stirring, until tender but not browned, 8–10 minutes. Add tomatoes, season with salt, and continue to cook until juices have evaporated, about 6 minutes. Stir in flour and cook until incorporated, about 1 minute. Whisk in milk and continue to cook until mixture comes to a boil and thickens, about 4 minutes. Reduce heat to low, gradually add both cheeses, and cook, stirring constantly, until cheese is completely melted and queso is smooth. If it seems too thick, stir in a little more milk.

Final Assembly of Tostados
  1. Heat the broiler. Cook the sausage breaking up with a spoon or spatula. Heat the beans and the queso. Add your eggs to a skillet with a little butter over medium heat and cook to desired doneness. Spread some of the black beans over the tostados and place on a sheet pan. Place under the broiler for just a minute or until the tostado is browned on the edges and warmed through. Remove to two plates. Top each with a little of the queso, then the crumbled sausage. Top them with your sunny side up eggs or over medium eggs and top with a little more of the queso. Serve with your favorite salsa if you like. Enjoy!

Super Greens Breakfast Tacos

Don’t want a smoothie? No problem. Start your day with these Super Greens Breakfast Tacos. Eating your super greens does not have to be boring, honestly, you can add a handful to homemade soups, tacos and so much more! My super greens were a blend of organic baby spinach, mizuna, baby chard and baby kale! After I cooked the other ingredients I just threw a big handful of greens into the mixture and turned the heat off! It makes me feel good to know I started my day eating foods that are essential.

Super Greens Tacos

Loaded with protein from the eggs, the super food avocado, fresh tomatoes, the super greens, all wrapped in a corn tortilla is a great way to start the day! Very little fat, just a splash to brown the hash browns brown a little and from the breakfast sausage which really was minimal. Don’t want to use pork breakfast sausage? Use a turkey or chicken breakfast sausage. There is nothing bad for you in these breakfast tacos! Contrary to what you would think because we are talking tacos, but actually lots of great good for you things going on in these tacos! Yay!

Super Greens Breakfast Tacos

I used the Potatoes O’Brien Simply Potatoes from the hash browns. They are really good, have a few more ingredients than just potatoes and they add great flavor to the tacos. Here’s a link for the potatoes if you aren’t familiar. I love these, keep them in my refrigerator at all times. http://goto.walmart.com/c/2049504/568835/9383?veh=aff&sourceid=imp_000011112222333344&prodsku=172659154&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fip%2FSimply-Potatoes-O-Brien-Hash-Browns-20-Oz%2F172659154.

Print Recipe
Servings: 2 servings
Course: Breakfast, brunch, dinner, Lunch, Main Course
Cuisine: Mexican, Texmex
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 slices or servings of your favorite breakfast sausage
  • 1 1/2 – 2 cups hash browns ( I used Simply Potato Potatoes O'Brien)
  • splash of oil in your skillet for browning your hash browns
  • 4 eggs, beaten to scramble
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, grated
  • salt and pepper
  • handful or two of super greens (I used baby greens, spinach, kale, mizuna and chard)
  • 4 corn tortillas
  • Cilantro, chopped
  • limes for squeezing on (optional)
  • 1-2 avocados, diced
  • your favorite salsa

Method
 

  1. In a large skillet add your breakfast sausage and cook breaking up with a spoon or fork. When there is no more pink, push to one side, add a little oil and add your potatoes. Let the potatoes brown on the first side, then flip over. Let them brown on the other side. Push these aside, in the same skillet with your sausage.
  2. Beat your eggs in a separate dish and add a little salt and pepper. In the empty side of your skillet, add the butter and pour your eggs in. Let them sit for just a minute until they begin to set on the bottom. Add the cheddar cheese to the top of the eggs. Then with a spatula, start moving them around until they are done to your liking. I like soft scrambled eggs, and you don't want to overcook them because they will continue to cook. Add your super greens, toss or just fold all the ingredients together.
  3. Heat your tortillas in a separate skillet. Place the tortillas on a plate and divide the egg mixture among the tortillas. Top with chopped cilantro, fresh avocado, lime juice and your favorite salsa. Enjoy!

Delicious Santa Fe Railroad French Toast

Santa Fe Railroad French ToastJump to Recipe
Santa Fe Railroad French Toast
Santa Fe Railroad French Toast

Our friend Marvin Quillen made us this Santa Fe Railroad French Toast a couple of weeks ago and it is delicious. Unlike the usual French toast we make, this French toast is finished in the oven which allows it to puff up! Yes it gets puffy and the inside becomes custardy, just like bread pudding. Yum, it really is delicious. Thank you Marvin for sharing and now here’s a recipe for you to refer to if you like in the future! Oh, don’t forget to make the easy blueberry sauce.

Santa Fe Railroad French Toast

Just look at the lusciousness! After I plated the French toast, I sprinkled with powdered sugar, topped with some blueberry sauce, then finished with maple syrup and homemade whipped cream. Weekend breakfast or holiday breakfast just go better! You have to try this.

Delicious Santa Fe Railroad French Toast

You do want to use Maple Syrup if you can. It is a little more expensive, but well worth the money spent. Here’s a link for 365 Whole Foods Organic Grade A Maple Syrup that you can buy from Amazon or Whole Foods https://amzn.to/377qeYH. All of our local grocery stores will have a good Maple Syrup.

Any of my Buttermilk Pancake recipes need this Maple Syrup so be sure and try those too! https://the2spoons.com/best-ever-buttermilk-pancakes-with-blueberry-compote-and-whipped-cream/.

Here’s the yummy recipe!

Santa Fe Railraod French Toasst

Print Recipe
Servings: 4 servings
Course: Breakfast, brunch, dinner, Main Course
Cuisine: American
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

Blueberry Sauce
  • 1 1/2 pints fresh blueberries, rinsed
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
For the French Toasst
  • 6 slices French bread, or challah bread, or other sturdy bread that has been sliced into 3/4 to 1 inch thickness
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 4 large eggs beaten
  • splash of vanilla
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • butter for frying

Method
 

Blueberry Sauce
  1. Combine the blueberries and vanilla sugar in a large heavy saucepan. Add 1 cup water and the lemon juice and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the mixture begins to thicken.
  2. Serve hot or allow to come to room temperature, cover and refrigerate.
  3. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Position rack in middle of the oven. Arrange bread in a single layer in a baking dish. Whisk together cream, eggs, vanilla, salt. Pour over the bread and soak, turning occasionally until most of the liquid is absorbed but the bread is not falling apart. I think I ended up soaking about 30 minutes, but it may not take that long depending on the bread you may be using.
  4. Heat an iron skillet to high heat, but not smoking hot. Add 2 tablespoons butter at a time and add about 2 pieces of the soaked bread at a time until golden brown and crisp. Add more butter, and fry the remaining bread. If all the bread will not fit into the skillet, place on a sheet pan. Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake until puffed.
    Remove from the heat and dust with confectioner's sugar, maple syrup, blueberry sauce if you are using, and whipped cream if you are using! Enjoy!
