Hungry Hungry Hippo's

On the tenth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me his try anything hungry belly!  I love cooking for James!  I'm very cautious about what I cook him but with what he is limited to eating, it's my chance to get really creative. 


Yesterday I was watching Man vs. Food and it got my creative mind thinking, so this morning, I made James a different kind of breakfast. 



This is my Garlic Texas Toast Special!  This amazing sandwich (which had meat's I do not eat) is constructed very percisely, Garlic Texas Toast, Egg (you can do Sunny-Side Up or Scrabbled just make sure it crumble off the bread), Sage Sausage, Sharp Cheese, Hickory Smoked Bacon, and top it off with another piece of Garlic Texas Toast.  To make Special and to keep it together, I stuck a overly large tooth pick with an "I Love You James" flag at the top.  

What did you think about my Special Sandwich: "It was good but too much Texas Toast" - James

This photo doesn't do it justice,... the sandwich was VERY tall, probably my obsession with Man vs. Food.

I really do enjoy cooking for him and he tells me all the time how much he appreciates it.  He is an AMAZING cook himself, however I do not let him in the kitchen very often.  I have specially organized the kitchen because I use it the most and he gives me a hard time about how he can never find anything.
