Roast beef hash served with a ribbon of wasabi (it's horseradish. Only better) and a fried egg with garden pesto. 'Cos I can.
...Which reminds me, I did try the "green eggs" trick the other day, beating eggs with green pesto and scrambling them:Yum! They're delicious. And green. With a few (little) slices of dry salami chopped up and fried just ahead of scrambling the eggs, even better.
Just don't try getting the kids to eat 'em.
My kids ASKED for green eggs and ham one morning not terribly long ago. I think they were 4 and 8 at the time. I wish I'd known about the green pesto, I just used food coloring. They ate them and asked for more, so I guess it didn't do too badly.
ReplyDeleteThe last time I had green eggs was my first crossing of the Equator and in the interest of being properly ship shape to meet with Neptune and his court we were fed a hearty breakfast.

@ Rey B- Welcome back Shellback =)
ReplyDelete"Hearty breakfast." Hmpf. Did you know my Dad and all my uncles who served were Navy men?
ReplyDeleteLooks like the first C-Rat I ever ate. Scrambled Eggs, Exact same color. Never did look at the date of manufacture.
ReplyDeleteThanky kindly Keads it was a few years back, 1984 to be precise. Can't say I knew them for certain Miss Roberta but we probably haunted some of the same ports. My tour ran from 79-00 so we may have crossed wakes.

You wouldn't have known 'em -- the older boys all served during WW II and my Dad just missed Korea -- but most of them crossed the Equator, too.
ReplyDeleteI suspect their accounts of the...festivities...were somewhat bowdlerized.
