Breakfast Burger

This mammoth Breakfast Burger is not messing around. It's got bacon, hash browns, and a fried egg on a toasted English muffins. Turn leftovers into something totally epic. It's gonna be awesome.

Feeding my friends with homemade food has always been one of my favorite past times. Long before I was conscious of the energy I was creating as a kitchen witch, I knew there was magic in bringing people together to laugh and love over really good food.

One of the blessings and burdens of being the hostess is leftovers. It's a gift to still have the memory and flavors of the party hanging around the next day, but you also have to figure out what to do with it all. And sometimes, those leftovers could do with a bit of reimagining. A barbecue on the beach and a plastic tub of leftover hamburger patties is what led to the creation you see before you. It's bonkers, but I love it.

What makes this Breakfast Burger so awesome?

I did not hold back when creating this breakfast burger. I put all the good stuff on it. Use as much leftover as possible. If you've already got cooked burger patties, that's ideal. Whatever cheese you already have is perfect. If you've got pre-cooked bacon, awesome. That makes your morning much easier.

I love the added crunch of hash browns and a well-toasted English muffin here. It gives so much texture. But of course, what takes this right over the top is an over easy egg with a gooey yolk. I also love to add a dash of hot sauce to some mayo for the sauce here. It's the perfect cure for the morning after a bit of overindulgence. Depending on how fat your burger patties are, you will probably need to eat this with a knife and fork. Just get it in your face. That's all that matters.

And of course, you can enjoy this burger any time of day.

Make it magical

Look, I'm pretty creative, and I can usually come up with a good story for how to give something spiritual or witchy significance. This burger, though, is pure indulgence. Maybe we say that pleasure is magical. I mean it's true. If we're trying to raise our vibration but constantly denying ourselves pleasure, I don't know that we're ever gonna get there. A witch embraces her own power and takes control of her own joy. Maybe you can do that by waking up in the morning and making a burger that's really fuckin' awesome and just revelling in the pleasure. Yeah, that's totally what you should do.

Tips for making a Breakfast Burger

You could go about this any number of ways. The ideal is that you have at least the burger patties made and cooked ahead of time, but if you have bacon already cooked, even better. If not, you can cook the bacon and the hash browns in a frying pan or in the oven. Whatever is easiest for you.

When it comes time to assemble, you'll want to toast your English muffins, then spread them with some mayo, preferably spiked with hot sauce. Then you'll add a burger, some cheese, some bacon, and a crunchy hash brown or two depending on size. Then the whole thing gets topped with a gooey fried egg. Eat this before you take a shower if you're actually having it for breakfast. It's gonna get messy.
