The Brunch Bug Bit Me–Bacon and Egg Bialy

by J3nn (Jenn's Menu and Lifestyle Blog) on September 11, 2011

I love bacon and eggs and egg sandwiches, yet I don’t eat them often. There are some foods that I Mmm Mmm through every bite and vow to start eating them 3 times a day and it never happens. I like breakfast foods, but I hardly ever eat them for breakfast. Today was the exception. Today the thought of an egg and bacon sandwich on a bagel would not leave my mind. So I took a short trip down to the local Trading Post—a small local IGA-type of store where everybody knows your name and your cat’s name and what year your son Johnny is graduating. They didn’t have any fresh bagels at the deli, but they did have bialies. Bialies (bialys?) are bialys basically bagels with no hole in the center. Same texture, same ingredients, same shape, same YUM factor.

At home, I already had everything else I needed: Applegate Farms uncured bacon and grass-and-bug-fed free-range eggs. Done and done.

Summer’s almost over, so my summer sandwich series is coming to an end. But don’t worry, the sandwich series will live on. hehe

Summer Sandwich Series: Breakfast Sandwich!

Yum and yum!

2 scrambled eggs + 2 slices Applegate Farms uncured bacon on a a lightly toasted “everything” bialy with fresh organic strawberries. And water in a coffee cup, of course.

Organic berries don’t hold up as long as regular ones. Sad smile These were on their last leg. I bought a quart of regular strawberries last night. But here in NY they’re way, way out of season anyway, so does it matter much? Nope.

Best breakfast I have had all week. The only breakfast I have had all week, LOL. I’ve been doing intermittent fasting this week, so this was a nice change up. The bialy was so fresh; crusty on the outside, soft and doughy inside. Perfect!

I have a ridiculous amount of housework to get done today. Actually, not all of it today, but this week. Today is just day one of a very long week, err, month. Seriously though, this house is a wreck still. Not dirty, but disorganized and cluttered, which drives me insane. We’ve gotten about 78 deliveries this week, so boxes and STUFF are just everywhere. I need to stop buying stuff so I don’t have to find a place to put it! I need help. Mental help that is, LOL. I don't know smile

Ugh. Off to tackle this. Angry smile

I’ve had coconut milk a few times, but I’ve never really HAD coconut milk until this morning. I don’t know what changed, but when I opened the can that I refrigerated overnight and had a taste, I was like, “OMG, this is freakin’ amazing! Buh-bye cow juice!” Well, ok, that’s probably being a bit dramatic, [...]

Even though nearly nothing is in bloom here in the Catskills, I still love when one season ends and another begins. But what is there to love about a transitional season that still has a great chance of snow and sleet, muddy kitty cat feet trampling into the house, and allergies galore? Well, springtime ushers [...]

Doctors and Lobsters

February 15, 2011 Holidays

I picked a great day to go to the doctor, despite HER presence. When I arrived at the office around 12:15 pm for my 12:30 pm appointment, there was only 2 others in the waiting room! Score! On any given day there’s usually at least 5 or 6 people ahead of me. It may have [...]

Raw Diet Day Three: The Joy Of Not Cooking

July 14, 2010 Jenneral Posts

I’m trying to find the joy in this raw diet, which isn’t always easy, lol. There haven’t been any noticeable changes in the tummy situation, though I haven’t eaten much today and I also have a lot of questionable contributing factors, such as dairy. I took some Gas-X a few hours ago, but haven’t noticed [...]

We watched the movie Julie & Julia for the first time last night. I loved it! Dustin’s been telling me that I would like it, so it finally arrived from Netflix after being in our queue for the longest time. Meryl Streep was absolutely brilliant! I could relate to Julie Powell a lot, but I [...]
