Hash Brown Bake

One of my dearest friends came over a few weekends ago for a slumber party. Since she is the Pugancious Vegetarian I wasn't about to serve meat for breakfast!

Intro a twist on my Mom/Grandmom's Hash Brown Bake:

1 26 oz frozen hash brown potates

1 stick margarine melted

1 can cream of mushroom soup (Non-Vegetarians can use cream of chicken)

80z of sour cream

16 oz of Shreded Cheddar Cheese

Onion powder

Adobo powder (optional)

Garlic Powder

Black Pepper

Mix together and cook at 350 uncovered for 1 hour. You can make the night before and pop in when you wake up (great for busy holiday mornings too)!

I served it with Maple flavored Morningstar Sausage. Enjoy!

Branching out for Dinner

Or should I say fungusing out? Is that a word?

The hubby and I tried Quorn for dinner - he unwittingly. Gruyere Chik'n Cutlet to be exact. Add in some minute rice (sprinkled with sesame seeds) and corn- a convincing dinner for my meat loving man. (Extra perk done in 20 minutes)

So, what is it? According to the website: "Mycoprotein is the main ingredient in all Quorn products. It's made from a member of the fungi family, which includes mushrooms and truffles, and is a high-quality meat-free protein that's naturally low in fat with very few calories."

Try a few bites, even the meat lovers out there will find this tasty!
