Description

Well, in most parts of the country, its fall ya’ll. Colder mornings mean one thing to me. Hot breakfast! And nothing beats a sweet heat burrito packed with egg, bacon, peppers and of course some spice!


Ingredients

• 12 bacon strips, chopped
• 12 large eggs
• 10 flour tortillas (8 inches), warmed
• 1 tablespoon Sweet Heat Blend
• 1-1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 Red Bell Pepper (thinly sliced)
• 1/4 green bell pepper (diced)
• 4 green onions, thinly sliced


Instructions

  1. In a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet, cook bacon until crisp; drain on paper towels. Remove all but 1-2 tablespoons drippings from pan.
  2. Whisk together eggs and Sweet Heat. Heat skillet over medium heat; cook peppers for 3 minutes.
  3. Pour in egg mixture. Cook and stir until eggs are thickened and no liquid egg remains; remove from heat.
  4. Spoon about 1/4 cup egg mixture onto center of each tortilla; sprinkle with cheese, bacon and green onions. Roll into burritos.

Freeze option: Cool eggs before making burritos. Individually wrap burritos in paper towels and foil; freeze in an airtight container. To use, remove foil; place paper towel-wrapped burrito on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high until heated through, turning once. Let stand 15 seconds.

The Steak Escape


  • Author: Zach Johnston
  • Prep Time: 30 mins
  • Cook Time: 15 mins
  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 Servings 1x

Description

Quarantine sucks, get out of this World for a moment with great steak and maybe a glass (or bottle, hell at this point, maybe a keg) of red wine.


Scale

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup of Olive Oil
  • 1/4 cup of Soy Sauce
  • 4 teaspoons of Summit County Steak and Veg
  • 2 pounds of boneless sirloins or New York Strip Steaks

Instructions

  1. Mix Oil, soy sauce, and Summit County Steak and Veg in a small bowl. Place the steaks in a large resealable bag or dish. Pour Oil, soy sauce and spices over the steak and let marinade for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Grill the steaks over medium-high heat for 6-8 minutes per side or until you reach your desired temperature. (if you’re a well-done kind of person, shame on you, kidding, but not really.)
  3. Take steaks off the heat and let them rest for about 10 minutes before eating. I also love to add a bit of butter to melt over the steak and a touch of flake salt on there never hurt anyone either.

5 DIY Spice Blends Using Common Ingredients

5 DIY Spice Blends Using Common Ingredients

We’re all guilty of buying large bottles of a single spice for a recipe, using it just a few times before we leave it to gather dust in the back of our cabinets.

When we decide to go on a cleaning spree, these spices—which we likely spent a pretty penny on—often get tossed into the trash. Not only is this wasteful from both an environmental and money-savvy standpoint, but it’s a missed opportunity to mix your own DIY spice blends.

Making your own DIY spice blends is easy as can be, too! Here’s a rundown on what you’ll need to make and store your own, followed by five do-it-yourself recipes you, likely, can make today.

Gather your supplies and spices. Below is a list of a few crucial items you’ll need:

● A tablespoon/teaspoon measuring set
● Zip-tight bags
● Spice jars
● (Optional) small funnel – rolled paper works well for this.

How to Start DIY-ing Your Spices
First, gather your spices and layout out your supplies. Then, referencing the recipes we’ll describe later, start measuring suggested amounts of each spice for the blend, pouring them into one of your plastic bags. After that, shake things up—literally. Make sure everything is homogenous, i.e., combined well, and then empty said created spice blend, using a funnel or not, into either one of your now empty spice bottles or a spice jar you bought. And finally, label your new spice blend, so you’re not second-guessing yourself about what it is later down the road.

DIY Spice Recipes
Now that you have the tools and instructions on how to DIY your spice blends, below are five popular recipes to reference. Remember, the world is your oyster here, if you don’t have a particular spice, try subbing out something that seems close to it! Maybe you’ll come up with something special your friends can’t stop talking about.
