Hearty Potato Hash Skillet

With a little prep, this recipe is a breeze! It will soon be your go to breakfast skillet! Get all your ingredients out, prep and cut them if necessary. Fry up some bacon!  Yum, when its done cut or break it into small pieces.  *TIP* Fry potatoes in the same pan you fried your bacon in* 😉 Clean the potatoes, cut out the eyes and any bad spots. Peel skins if desired and cut them into cubes. Grate the cheese and set it aside with the bacon pieces.     Fry up the potato cubes until they're almost 3/4 of the way cooked.  Mix in bacon pieces and 1/4 of the grated cheese, then its time for the eggs. Make a well in the potatoes for each egg you use. Turn down the heat and add 1-2 tsps of butter in and around potato hash.  Then cover for 5 minutes or until the yoke is cooked to your liking.  Lastly, mix into the hash the remainder of the grated cheese! The skillet is ready to serve once the cheese has melte...

Chicken Salad Wrap Pinwheels

  Super easy snack, play around with different ingredients in your chicken salad ! I made 2 different chicken salads both with mayonnaise.  I divided my mixture of mayonnaise, shredded grilled chicken breast and grated marble cheese into to 2 parts. Left one as is and added a couple extra ingredients to the second portion of salad.  I added chopped celery and some ceaser salad dressing.  Spread a thin layer (1/4-1/2 inch ) of salad on top of your tortilla.  Start rolling up your tortilla from one end, keeping it nice and tight! I then started cutting slices, tip for next time, wrap the tortilla tub up with plastic wrap and put it in the fridge to firm up.  Make sure the knife you use to cut the rolls is nice and sharp.  Place them on plate and munch out! Or pop them into the fridge until it’s go time! You can add anything you like!  I’m thinking about adding some mushrooms and red peppers next time I make these LOL...
