Nate- Food, Drinks, and Rock n' Roll I woke up this morning to the amazing aroma of orange blossoms and hazelnut coffee. The Florida sun was beaming and the breeze was surprisingly cool. I had a pineapple in the fridge and some eggs, so I got to work on a delicious breakfast treat for myself. Porsche Knife with Onions and Red Bell Peppers I small diced the pineapple with some red onions, bell peppers (red and green) and a few sprigs of fresh cilantro. I added a touch of salt and pepper and a bit of olive oil, covered it up and popped it in the fridge for a bit to let all of the flavors macerate together. Cilantro Then came the eggs... (when I was a kid, I only liked eggs if they were scrambled. I couldn't stand them any other way. Its funny how things change as you grow, because now I cant think of any food being as sexy as a perfectly cooked sunny side egg... sorry, back to the breakfast hahaha) I cracked a couple of eggs in my saute pan with some bacon fat (oh yeah) and cooked them sunny side up. I like to get my pan pretty hot before I add the eggs. I think everyone has their own idea of a "perfect" method, but for me it's perfect when the whites get a bit crispy and golden on the edges. I like the texture difference between crispy edges and soft middle. Once the eggs were finished, I served them with a dash of chili powder and salt and pepper then added a few tablespoons of my pineapple salsa over the top. It was delicious! As I sat on my porch, orange blossoms in my lungs and beaming sun on my face, I thought... "today is going to be a great day"... and it all started with some sexy eggs.

Later,
