The following does not appear…
…to be an April Fools joke, or an Onion article.
But I think I’ll take a raincheck on it anyway.
I kinda like the disparate elements, although I rarely let myself indulge in those particular vices. But the combo? Gag me with a spoon.
Although in the spirit of adventure…hmmm…if someone put one in front of me…[trails off, lost in thought]…
Pre-cook bacon (ham may be substituted; turkey ham is good if you have dietary restrictions regarding pork). Make a waffle. While waffle is cooking, cook egg (over medium, please.
Put cooked waffle on plate. Put bacon atop waffle. Put egg over bacon. Pour maple syrup over all.
Yummy.
…prob’ly pretty close to the same thing taste wise, and “close enough” texture wise.
…aargh: turkey bacon I meant to write.
I have nothing against something sweet with my bacon and eggs, but I prefer a degree of separation, as in toast with a bit of jam. Donuts are to be eaten alone.
…try the waffle construction expat (slab of butter melting under the bacon, and heat the maple syrup: I forgot to specify those); you might make an exception.
For donuts (cake only: I’m a purist snob about that), I’m a coffee guy, or – when I’m feeling particularly hedonistic in the late afternoon, during that transition time between the bean and vine, I’ve been known to dunk in a glass of Merlot.
…to my wife’s horror (though she’ll dunk chocolate covered biscotti in a good Cab’ with absolutely no apparent sense of shame).
