Irish Breakfast
jenn
"You could face anything after this hearty breakfast of eggs, mushrooms and tomatoes fried with bacon and butter. Slices of Irish soda bread are grilled in the skillet and served on the side."

Ready In
- Lay the bacon slices in a single layer in a large skillet. Fry over medium heat until it begins to get tinged with brown. Fry on both sides. Remove from pan, but save grease.
- Melt butter in skillet. Crack eggs into pan, being careful not to break yolks. Place tomato slices, mushrooms, and bread in pan. Fry gently, stirring mushrooms and tomatoes occasionally. Keep everything separate. Turn bread over to brown on both sides.
- When egg whites are set, but yolks are still runny, dish half of everything onto each of 2 warmed plates, and serve immediately.
Footnotes
- Cook's Note:
- Start your day off the Irish way! You'll never want cold cereal again. To be really authentic, buy back bacon--it's much meatier than the belly bacon Americans eat. And it's absolutely essential that you serve this breakfast with sweet, milky tea.
- Try one of these recipes for Irish Soda Bread or soda farls to fry up and serve on the side.

It is not authentic until you add black and white pudding as well as baked beans (which I really hate on my breakfast to be honest). This is more an "Irish American breakfast". Not bad but not I...

The only thing this needs is some black and white pudding and some potatoes!

For a truely authentic experience you'd need to find some black or white pudding, and for a truely magnificent hangover cure add baked beans and lashings of tea and toast.

What an awesome meal. My husband & I had it for dinner and we love it. It's unique in that it includes veggies, which American breakfasts almost never do. Quick & easy too!
