Philadelphians love their food, but brunch gets put
on a higher pedestal.
Be it the smell of bacon or the promise of a bloody mary, brunch is the only meal that can get many of us to get out of bed, put on pants and leave the
house on a Saturday or Sunday morning, even when especially when we're ridiculously hungover. Now that’s dedication.
But what if I told you that you didn’t have to leave your house, or spend money at a restaurant, or even put on pants in order to enjoy a restaurant-worthy brunch?
Actually, that’s exactly what I’m telling you!
All you have to do is hop on over to Sherrie Castellano’s little corner of the Interweb - With Food and Love - and plan ahead by grabbing some ingredients a few days before, and you can make and enjoy the delectable meals featured below. (Castellano lived in Philadelphia for five years.)
But what if I told you that you didn’t have to leave your house, or spend money at a restaurant, or even put on pants in order to enjoy a restaurant-worthy brunch?
Main Course: Harvest Hash Breakfast Tacos (see, and salivate over, picture above.)
Now before you assume "No way I can make that," because I did, too, just read the recipe and you'll realize it's not all that difficult.
All you need is a rainbow assortment of root veggies and a sharp knife to create the beautifully shredded "taco" fixings, below.
Then, all you need is a fried egg, a tortilla and some extra optional toppings, and WHAM, in 20 minutes you will have yourself a meal worth bragging about to your friends.
But wait, make it even better by adding a side of Avocado Toast with Cilantro Lime Cashew Cream and some fresh-pressed Carrot Ginger Orange Juice.
