It’s what’s for dinner!
Yep!
Sometimes dinner needs to be super simple.
And there’s nothing more simple than a couple of eggs, slices of bacon and some toast.
Of course, if you live in one of the Southern states like I do then grits are a must.
If you have never heard of grits, all I can tell you is they come from God’s magical corn machine.
Other than that, I got nothing.
Anyway, today, I am featuring a basic, run of the ‘meal’ omelet.
Ok, I’ll be the first to admit that the one I made here is not really that amazing but BAYBEE there are people who can turn omelets into masterpieces.
I’m serious!
I can’t tell you how many crawfish, cheese and green onion omelets I ate whilst I was in The Big Easy.
There are also some awesome makers of great omelets happening up in St. Louis too!
YAAASSSS!
Sadly, my omelet eating days are pretty much over.
I have found that egg and milk products don’t really like me very much 😦
Lady J, however, has no problem with them so the omelet pictured above was her breakfast.
Now…
Before I go, let me step back to grits.
Grits give me LIFE!
They are a fine canvas for all kinds of merriment!
My granddaddy taught me that!
You see, to him, everything was just a base for his favorite additions like sliced tomatoes and peppers.
But that had more to do with his giving nature than anything else.
Friends, this might not make much sense to you now, don’t worry, Ron or I will elaborate one day on The Flowering Vine.
Until then…
Enjoy watching this omelet mature before your very eyes!
Oh yeah, notice the fact that it looks like a frowning yellow crescent moon!
LOL!!!
I guess I would be frowning too if it were me!
Have a blessed day, sweets!
LadyG 😘💋
I have never had grits!!! And between you and me, while I am talking about other “black” foods that I have yet to check off my list … I have never had collard greens, either! lol
I love breakfast for dinner! I have always been a cereal-at-any-time-of-day kind of person, but eggs and bacon for supper … that’s my kind of language! =D
Nice pictures =D
