5. 1/2 can Hormel chili + "breakfast rice" with steamed veggies. WTF! For breakfast, Why?

First the chili: I left a half can of Hormel chili (turkey, no beans variety) out last night around 10 PM. I went to bed later without putting it away (major procedural error, right before going to bed I'm supposed to look around the kitchen for things like that, but I didn't. DAMMIT I should make a f'ing sign bedside to remind me).

When I got up at 515am there it was on top of the refrigerator. Fortunately it smells and tastes OK. So I decided to finish it off soon (it's in the freezer now for an hour to fast cool it down, but now that I think about it, I shoulda just heated it up and kept it hot - LATER: it's heating up, currently at the ideal temperature for smelling and tasting, and it's fine).

(AND a jar of milk, nearly a quart, was also left on top of the refrigerator, I also put it in the freezer to fast cool it. Fortunately it was mostly frozen at bedtime.)

OK, that explains the chili.

What is "Breakfast rice"? I extremely very rarely have rice for breakfast. Rather, I rotate between cereal and oatmeal. But yesterday A.M., because I was falling behind quota on veggies (the target, which I have been maintaining for months, is an average 3 cups veggies/day), I decided to have some veggies for breakfast and decided that would go good with rice and my use-on-everything bean sauce. So I cooked up a small batch of "breakfast rice". and had rice + 1 cup veggies. That was yesterday morning.

Back to this morning: shortly, I will finish off the leftover breakfast rice batch with a cup of steamed veggies, and pour the Hormel chili on top of it all.

LATER: It's done cooking and is ready to eat -- OMFG, this is a HUGE amount for breakfast, sigh. This is more like a big dinner.

11. Recipe

It is simple.

take the standard buttermilk pancake recipe, and add lemmon zest, the juice from the lemon, a little extra sugar, and as many buebarries as you like.

1 cup flour,
1 TBS sugar, plus 1 or 2 more depending on your taste and how the lemon juice tastes
1 TBS baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
mix together.

1 TBS butter melted
LEmon zest fro one lemon. I zest the lemon and put it with the butter to melt it.
When melted, add one egg and mix.
Add lemonjuice to about a cup of buttermilk
Combine with the egg and butter mixture.

Add the liquids to the dry and stir to combine. Thin as you like. Add fresh blue berries.

Spoon into a heated pan.
