Cajun Yellow Rice

A camping recipe from Robert Partigianoni. You will find that this simple breakfast meal will become the all time favorite. Very few breakfast dishes will have the flavor of this meal. This is a meal within itself, or it can be served using smaller portions as a side dish to any meal that you would serve rice.

Prep Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients:

• 6 eggs
• 4 slices of bacon or 4 sausage patties
• 1/4 bell pepper, choppeed
• 1/4 onion, chopped
• 2 ribs of celery
• 1/4 stick of butter
• 3-4 cups of cooked rice
• salt and pepper, to taste
• optional: 1/2 tomato, chopped

Preparation:

In a Dutch oven or fry pan cook the bacon or sausage and remove leaving grease in bottom of pan. Chop the meat up into little pieces. Add butter to pan. While it is melting, add the onion, celery and bell pepper. Any color, I use green. This is known as the trinity of Cajun cooking. Saute these vegetables and in the last two minutes add the cooked rice and meat in the pan and stir vigorously. When the rice is warm, move the mixture to the sides of the pan and leave the center empty. Crack the eggs, mix well and pour in the center of the pan. Once the egg mixture hits the pan, stir the rice and egg mixture well. The rice will turn yellow. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve.

Servings: 4-6
Preparation time: 40 minutes
