Day 53.
The last time I cooked something overnight it was beyond gross. This was not.
The Ingredients:
I had all of these things in the refrigerator already. I think the trick for doing something like this is to use up what you already have. If you have leftover roasted veggies, toss them in. You like mushrooms and have a whole bunch? Throw them in there, too.
--5 large eggs
--3/4 cup cut up cooked sausage (I had chicken and apple)
--1 1/2 cups shredded cheese
--4 baby potatoes
--1 cup milk
--chop up your potatoes in little cubes. I did not peel them.
--mix egg and milk together inside your crockpot insert
--add other ingredients, mix again
if you are using sausage, you will not need to add salt and pepper. If you are going vegetarian, you will probably want to add a bit of each.
cover and cook on low for 8 hours or so.
I turned this on at
and at
I freaked out for no good reason and switched it to warm.
and went back to bed.It looked like this:
The Verdict:
This tasted good, and was cooked perfectly, but the eggs lost their color and wigged me out. The kids had no interest whatsoever and had cornflakes (the gluten free kind from the bulk bins at Whole Foods, don't know the name) and after I ate a small bowl started thinking about cholesterol and fed it to the garbage disposal.
I need to go lecture myself on starving children now.
