    Breakfast Burger with text

    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.

    FAQ

    What else could I add to my breakfast burger?

    If you wanted to make this more of an English breakfast, maybe a slice of tomato or some mushrooms would be nice. Just check your fridge and look for things that make you happy.

    • Author: Renee Rendall
    • Prep Time: 10
    • Cook Time: 20
    • Total Time: 30 minutes
    • Yield: 2 burgers 1x
    • Category: Breakfast
    • Method: Grilled
    • Cuisine: American

    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 2-4 slices of bacon
    • 2 hash browns
    • 2 eggs
    • 2 burger patties
    • 2 slices of cheese
    • ¼ mayo
    • 1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce, or to taste
    • 2 English muffins

    Instructions

    1. In a skillet over medium heat, fry your bacon until crispy. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
    2. In the same pan, turn the heat up to medium high and add your hash browns, cooking about 5-8 minutes per side or until they're as brown and crispy as you like. Remove to paper towel lined plate. (You could also cook your hash browns in the oven. Check package instructions.)
    3. While these two things are cooking, you can also be toasting your English muffins, stirring together your mayo and Tabasco sauce, and microwaving your leftover burger patties. I put mine in the microwave for about two minutes, then add a slice of cheese on top to let it melt.
    4. Spread your Tabasco mayo onto each side of your English muffins, put a hash brown on the bottom, add your cheesy burger patty, then break each slice of bacon in half and pop that on the top. You want everything to be ready so you can just slide your egg on top of each burger straight out of the pan.
    5. Head back to your frying pan and turn the heat down to medium low. Fry two eggs, sunny side up, or as you like, and season with a bit of salt and pepper. Slide your eggs, runny yolks required, onto the top of your burger, and put the lid on.
