Breakfast for Dinner: Red Potato, Bacon and Onion Hash with Sunnyside Egg, Spring Greens with Maple Vinaigrette and Cheddar Biscuits with Strawberry Jalapeno Jam

Breakfast for Dinner: Red Potato, Bacon and Onion Hash with Sunnyside Egg, Spring Greens with Maple Vinaigrette and Cheddar Biscuits with Strawberry Jalapeno Jam

It was 7:30pm last night and I could not think of anything that sound particularly good to eat for dinner and that I was necessarily in the mood to cook. Usually, when that happens, I find the answer to my meal dilemna to be breakfast for dinner. There really is nothing quite as satisfying as the aroma of bacon frying and, with a little twist, this breakfast made for a most satisfying dinner.I started the red potato hash by cutting 2 pieces of bacon into 1 inch pieces and sauteing them in a large skillet until they were crisp and fat was rendered. After removing the crispy bacon pieces with a slotted spoon, I added 1/2 chopped onion and 3 parcooked diced red potatoes. I let the potatoes cook, relatively undisturbed for about 10 minutes for them to get nice and brown. Then, I cooked them for another 20 minutes until they were cooked through and browned on all sides. After returning the bacon to the pan, I added a shot of Worchestershire sauce which was just the wakeup these breakfast, turned dinner, potatoes needed. I cooked an egg, sunnyside up, and slide it right on top of the potatoes.Breakfast for dinner can hardly be so without maple syrup somewhere in the meal. I made a maple vinaigrette for my Spring greens salad by combining maple syrup, Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, extra virgin olive oil and salt and pepper. A quick toss of the greens with the dressing and the perfect sweet and savory accompaniment to play off the fried potatoes and bacon was created.A quick bisquick drop biscuit was made dinnertime delicious with the addition of a handful of sharp cheddar cheese. The perfect sweet yet spicy topping for this cheesy biscuit was…
