Breakfast Mess (An Open-Faced Breakfast Sandwich)

This is rated a difficulty level of 1 so if you're new to cooking, bust out a non-stick frying pan and make your significant breakfast or room-mate some breakfast. :)

You will need 4 tablespoons margarine/butter, rouhly 1/2 cup vegetable oil, a bag of shredded hashbrowns, 3 eggs, 1/4 diced red onion, `1/2 green pepper (diced), 1 slice American Cheese per sandwich, 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese per sandwich, 1 piece of toast per sandwich, and ketchup. (I made 5 sandwiches using this amount but it will depend on how you make your sandwiches. :) )

In frying pan, scramble eggs and cook well. Add 1/4 cup of vegetable oil after adding the bag of hashbrowns; also add the red onion and green pepper. Cook until hashbrowns are golden brown and vegetables are soft. Toast bread as it cooks.

Lightly butter toasted bread and top with one slice of american cheese, followed by ketchup, and then add a scoop of the hashbrown mixture. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella on top and enjoy.

For carnivores, I'd also recommended adding some shredded ham lunch meat. DELICIOUS! Another great thing about this recipe is that it'd be easy to double and make for an even bigger crowd. *Cough* In-laws in town? *Cough*

Thomas rates this recipe a 9 out of 10, even without the meat...and those who know him know that's saying something!


Eat your heart out,
