My husband is not used to the idea of eating breakfast food for dinner. However, this was a common occurrence when I lived with my parents. At least once a week we would have breakfast delectable’s for dinner, such as scrambled eggs and sausages, cheese and mushroom omelet’s, sourdough hotcakes, bacon and hash browns, or biscuits and gravy. Even though I’m not a great fan of eggs, I will eat my Mum’s scrambled eggs because they are to die for; my father’s omelets and sourdough hotcakes are heavenly, and the hash browns are a special treat my late uncle Mike O’Toole used to prepare (with lots of Worcestershire sauce and pepper). Biscuits and gravy remain my breakfast specialty – I was lucky enough to learn the recipe from one of my aunt’s, who was born and bred in Shawnee, Oklahoma.

 

However, rather than plunge my husband into a wide variety of breakfast food for dinner, tonight I threw together fried ham and pancakes made from a prepared Kroger mix. My husband was a bit skeptical at first because he feels Bisquick is the best mix, but I slipped in Kroger because it is half the price and just as good. To my surprise, he enjoyed the meal and I‘m hoping we can start having “morning food” for dinner more often. As long as I don’t have to cook any dammed eggs!
