Monday January 17 Dirty Snack



I get tired of eggs for breakfast so this morning I made a casserole dish, which qualifies as a dirty snack. It is based on another dish I make called "Alpo." Alpo is a big can of Dennison's hot chili with beans served over rice. As you can tell by the name, it belongs to a completely different category from dirty snacks. It's my husband's favorite. Actually it is his original recipe, concocted when he was a single guy in the Air Force. It's OK as comfort food, but I have to add some fresh tomatoes or sour cream to mine. But, back to the breakfast casserole. It is as follows:

  1. 2 cups frozen hash browns (shredded kind) placed in the bottom of a small casserole bowl
  2. top with a small can of Dennison's hot chili with beans, spread to cover the potatoes
  3. Next layer, 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  4. Final layer, add 1/2 cup crushed pita chips
  5. Bake at 375 about 30 minutes or until hot through.

I can't wait to hear what my husband has to say about this one.
