Old Farm Fry - Eggs, Bacon, and Potato - Longmeadow Farm
By: Andi of Longmeadow Farm
Dec 6, 2007
As the new snows blows in from the North, it appears just a delightful day for the birds outside, who are eating to beat the band. Hundreds gather to fight over their bird seed, and the squirrels are starting to get involved as well. I can see the deer moving in from the now white meadow to make their bellies plumb from eating extra corn at the full corn cribs. I just got finished supplying the cattle with their sweet hay which is placed in their feeders, and calves were sleeping away after gorging on milk. Everyone is fed. Good. Feeling rather proud at fulfilling the many needs of hungry animals and birds on the farm, I ponder for a minute, what can I feed us today? Dennis reminds that he hasn't eaten since early in the morning and his stomach is growling like a lone tiger waiting for some action. Nope, can't forget Dennis....so I ran to the kitchen to see what I could scratch up. A potato left over from potato salad that had already been boiled, fresh bacon and fresh eggs. I set out to put this easier then hanging wash on the line during a breezy day recipe. Quick as winking your eye, and you have a platter of goodness right before your eyes. Which reminds me now, just where did Dennis go, oh, wait a minute....he's right here. Dennis has a cute habit of coming up behind and scaring me a lot. This was one of those days.

Delicious! My boyfriend and I both love this! I usually add another egg and sometimes a little more cheese. I so look forward to the days when I make this.

Good. Not the world's most attractive breakfast, but tasty. And I always like finding ways to add vegetables to breakfast meals. I think next time I'll use uncooked potatoes and fry them with the onions. My cooked ones got a little soggy. Thanks for posting this.

A wonderful oh so terrific breakfast. Especially as I look at the nasty white snow coming down at the end of march. Comforting, easy and delish.

Yours is a little fancier with the toppings than my Dad ever made, but we used to have this on winter mornings before going out to cut wood. The memory tastes so good, ... maybe I'll make it for my family this weekend if I can find some potatoes that my teenage DD hasn't baked in the microwave for a snack yet.
