I tried Lyle's Microwaved Egg Muffin a few years back and liked it so much ("this is so easy!") that I started making it for breakfast every morning. Eventually I moved on, now I have a little nonstick pan that is exactly the right size for making a one egg omelette and a dedicated cast iron skillet for browning a veggie sausage; I make this sandwich every weekday and it takes me about 10 minutes. I eat it at my desk at work with a cup of coffee; by 8:25 AM I fold up the little rectangle of aluminium foil I wrapped it in and lament that the best part of my day is over. Thank you, Achewood cookbook, for getting me started in the right direction.

I think about making The Dogg is Home for myself every now as a treat, before I remember that heart disease took my grandfather down and it's probably going to get me too, eventually.

What brand of veggie sausage do you use? I've never found one I really liked-- I've had good veggie brats and stuff but not a good salty breakfast hockey puck.

Never almost have heart disease, dude. It ain't no way to live.

"The Dogg is Home" is one of the most perfectly Achewood names for a recipe that there could be, but it's almost impossible to explain why.

Morningstar Farms; I dunno if I'd eat at pattie on its own but it's great for an ersatz McMuffin. I stick to the regular variety because you can get those in a big 12 pack, but the spicy and maple varieties are also good (maple is especially good in and egg and cheese sandwich, just the right amount of sweetness to offset the sodium assault.)

the morningstar spicy patties are the best frozen veggie faux-meat ive found, definitely recommend. though "spicy" is hardly true, but they do have a better flavor than the regular ones to me.

Ah, yes, /r/collapse, for people who like the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement but don't enjoy its general lack of angry superiority.

I think this cat's definitely in Pat's general wheelhouse, but the lack of Onstadian vocabulary is either a tell or a clever disguise. The idea of Pat as a doomsday prepper is a fun mental exercise, though; I can see him being really upset that it's difficult to stay vegan while stocking your isolated mountain cabin with sixty five-pound buckets of preserved carbohydrates.

My grandad used to take me to ihop fairly regularly and would make me order the rooty tooty fresh and fruity and then he would order what i wanted and switch plates because he liked the rooty tooty fresh and fruity but refused to say that. Real power move.

I've seen recipes for stacked enchilada stuff-- like kind of a lasagna-- on cooking blogs here and there and, as a kid, in my mom's magazines once in awhile. I think it's one of those extremely not authenticity-adjacent Americana hybrids that Onstad has always had a really good instinct for. Like just this ruthless middle-class instinct to make any and all foods from other cultures into a casserole at whatever cost (I also remember my mom making lots of Mexican Lasagnas and Tex-Mex Pot Pies and Taco Pizzas etc. which, honestly, I uniformly loved).

So yeah the enchilada stacker. I'm pretty sure I could make one, but could I make it blammin'? Could I make it slammin'? And could it make anyone jam? Well I'm not so arrogant as to presume.

New Mexico enchiladas are stacked and have probably been that way since before NM joined the Union.
