This morning I tried a new to us recipe on Winemaker.  Unlike the vienna, kipper, enchilada this one turned out pretty good.  It’s not a new one by any means, it just saved on having to do any dishes.

On this site,  you have probably seen the recipe for “Bowern Omlettes”, well this is pretty much the same with just some tweaks to make it interesting.  The end result was very good!

I’m calling this the “Bowern Buritto”.

For two people:

Toss in a pretty good handful of hash brown potatoes into a pan with only the spray non stick stuff as the grease.  Begin to get them frying.

In the mean time, cut up some ham into diced chunks, about 3/4 cup of ham chunks, toss them into the pan with the spuds.

Dice up some onions, green peppers and whatever other veggies you like, toss them into the pan, stir often.

Dice up a very nice sized dill pickle!  Yes Dill Pickle…toss it into the pan with the other stuff.  Now heat it all for a bit.  You want the pickle juice to permeate the rest of the ingredients.

Break and scramble three eggs into the mix!

Now, add a handful of shredded cheddar cheese.  Stir it up until the cheese is melted and thoroughly mixed.  Set the pan to the side.

Grab onto some burrito shells or even tortilla shells (they are smaller, but do the same thing).  Heat them one at a time flipping them over in a pan (please, NOT the same pan that has the mix in it) a few times, until it’s almost too hot to handle with the bare hand.

Place the hot burrito shell on a single piece of aluminum foil, put a nice glob of the mix from the pan onto the shell  keeping it in a heaping row and toward one side.  Now roll it up as you would any burrito and then roll that up in the foil.

Done!

You can change things up by adding salsa to the mix in the pan as well if you like.  One thing about this is you don’t have to add salt, pepper or any other seasonings.  There is plenty of salt in the ham.

As our breakfast turned out, I had used tortilla shells (small ones) and because of the potatoes in the mix and the flour shell, we were both very satisfied with one of these as the main course.  Add a half glass of orange juice or milk and you have just had a very, very good breakfast!
