Kick Ass Freedom Toast

Brunch
Since I only make this, like, twice a year, I never substitute with less fatty ingredients. Which is why I only make this twice a year... Must keep booty in check.
Ingredients
3 large eggs, beaten
1 cup half and half
2 Tbsp vanilla extract
4 heaping spoonfuls of raw sugar (Or use the white crap. Blech!)
Handful of macadamia nuts crushed into itsy bitsy pieces (I suppose you could substitute this with almonds)
Several slices of dense bread
Unsalted butter
Directions
- Combine eggs and half and half in a large bowl. I don't really ever measure, so this whole 1 cup of half & half business is a guess, but the egg mixture should be just barely yellow. Like the inside of a banana.
- Add vanilla extract and sugar. Mix until the sugar has dissolved. Add macadamia nuts.
- In a pre-heated pan (medium heat!) melt a dollup of butter.
- Use a fork to poke holes in a slice of bread. Dip in egg mixture until it soaks through.
- Fry, flip, fry, remove. Repeat with new slice of bread.
Then try not to die from the fat overload.

Ok, this recipe is not for the faint of heart ... literally. When I was in college, my roommate and I created this meal when we just had a few things left in the fridge and we needed a good hangover remedy breakfast. This recipe will blast throught the strongest hangover leaving you feeling refreshed, yet gassy.
Ingredients
1/2 log of ground sausage
2 large slices deli ham
2 eggs
1 can black beans or pinto beans
2 flour tortillas or 2 slices toast
1/2 cup onion, minced
Some cheez whiz, warmed in microwave
Assortment of gut-burning condiments such as Tabasco, picante sauce, salsa, or pico de gallo
Orange juice
Directions
- In a small pot, heat the beans as instructed
- In a large skillet, saute onions in some oil. Add ground sausage and brown. Remove sausage/onion mixture and set aside. DO NOT drain grease.
- Keeping skillet very hot, fry the deli ham and brown on both sides.
- Crack the eggs on top of the ham and cover the skillet to cook the eggs through.
- Prepare your plate: tortilla on bottom, then add the ham/egg, then sprinkle the sausage/onion mixture, then sprinkle desired amount of beans, top with cheese whiz and your choice of hot sauce.
- Pour glass of OJ and enjoy. This tortilla thingy will probably NOT roll up, so don't even try. Just use a knife and fork.
