Easy Breakfast for those Early Wakers


A great way to start your morning is by having a great breakfast with coffee!! ( Or tea, or hot chocolate idk. You guys decide its your morning it need to go the way you want it to be! But I love coffee so yeah! hahaha) Today as a present from VB Productions to you guys we want to share our easy breakfast recipe! We eat this the days we happen to be in a rush and need to go bolting out the door really early in the morning for a photo-shoot or film. Its really easy to make and its done in a matter of minutes! 

The things you will need are:

1. Two Eggs
2.  Two slices of Ham (Any type of ham!)
3. Cheese (Any type of cheese as well!! I personally like swizz.)
4. Salt & Pepper, the perfect yin & yang!
5. Two slices of Bread
6. Butter or Olive oil (Or both!!)

Lets get Cooking:

1. You place a  nonstick pan on top of the stove and add about one tablespoon of butter or olive oil! We want to create a light cover to soften the surface of the pan so the eggs can come out nice and soft. Turn the stove on, and put it in low medium. 

2. Crack open your eggs into the pan. If the olive oil starts spitting that means you have the fire to high, lower it. In a few seconds the egg will start changing color. Cook till the whites of the eggs are set and good to go, and the yolk is still runny. While your eggs cook put your slices of bread on the toaster and wait for them to toast.

3. With your spatula flip over the egg and wait 20 seconds to make an over-easy egg. This will cook a bit of the other side but it will leave the yolk runny. If you want the egg yolk to be harder than leave it there for one minute. If breads are done being toasted, place the slices on a plate. Lower the fire on the pan and with a spatula remove your eggs and place them on top of the bread. 

4. Grab your two slices of ham and place them on the pan. Wait a few seconds till the side of the ham is a bit golden. Flip and wait for the other side to be golden as well. Once done turn the stove off and remove the slices of ham. Roll them up and place them on top of your eggs. Grab a small handful of pepper and salt and apply to the surface of your eggs and ham, to give it a bit of more taste. And bam your done!! 


To complement your easy breakfast, you can buy cupcakes  or fresh fruits from your supermarket or local markets. Adding another healthy choice to your morning! (The cupcake I had was a pumpkin one, mmm it was so good!) Hope you enjoy this recipe from the crew of VB Productions!! Enjoy and "Buen Provecho" ( Enjoy your meal!)

Tolkien Week!!


Yes, unfortunately I am a nerd and obsessed fanatic of Lord of the Rings!! Most of my childhood revolved around Lord of the Rings. Everything I did, I thought of or even wrote of was based on Tolkien's work! He is so far my favorite author and for those of you who dont know "The Hobbit" is my favorite book! I have read it a couple of times and cherish it by heart. So as a tribute to my favorite author and my favorite book I will be having a second breakfast tomorrow and Saturday!!

Now I know! You must be wondering what I mean by second breakfast, but dont worry I will explain in the next sentence after this point. The hobbits in the book normally have a schedule dedicated to eating. We have breakfast, second breakfast, elevensies, luncheon, afternoon tea, dinner and supper!!  Yep all of that in one day!! So this post will clearly be dedicated for Tolkien Fans around the globe and to any who wishes to partake on this celebration. This Saturday, September 22nd we will be celebrating Bilbo's & Frodo's birthday. So fans and readers around the world will be doing a second breakfast in their name. And I made one myself!! I have decided on making and omelette filled with spinach and mushrooms, with toast and bacon on the side and coffee!!


The recipes may be found on the link below!! For the Omelette, cause im guissing all of you can cook your bacon! But either way this is my Second Breakfast recipe you dont have to do one exactly like mine! Alter it, create your own!! Send pictures to our blog of your second breakfast or even your experience and it might show up in our Facebook page and Twitter or even in our next post!! 

Happy Tolkien Week!!

Sunny-Side Sandwich!


This is really good and easy to make!!! When I was a kid I used to watch Studio Ghibly's film The Cat Returns every day. And every time they would show the scene where the mom is eating her sandwich with a  sunny side eggs on top. I would crave a sandwich exactly like hers. The problem was my parents didn't know how to make it the right way or at least the way I wanted it. Now that im older I can finally cook that sandwich I so wanted when I was a kid. The sandwich is basically a piece of bread with lettuce, cheese and a sunny-side up egg on the top!

WHAT YOU NEED:
  • 2 slices of bread
  • Lettuce or A box of mixed herbs
  • 1 Egg
  • Cheese (it can be any type, I usually do it with Pepper Jack Cheese)
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Butter


COOK IT:
  1. Get the two slices of bread and  spread butter on top of it.
  2. Pick a slice of bread and place the cheese you want on the top.
  3. Place both slices of bread on the oven and let them toast. (3-6 minutes)
  4. Grab a small pan and coat it with butter.
  5. Gently break the egg and let it drop on the pan.
  6. Cover the pan so the egg cooks on the top as well.
  7. Watch your egg till the whites and yolk have reached the consistency you desired.
  8. Check you slices of bread( which should be ready by now with the cheese melted) and remove them from the oven.
  9. Place the slices of bread on a plate and check your egg. 
  10. Once the egg is ready remove and place in slice of bread that does not contain the cheese.
  11. Get your lettuce out and rinse it clean.
  12. Place it in your slice of bread with cheese. 
  13. Add a bit of salt & Pepper to your egg.
  14. Place the egg on top of the lettuce and put remaining piece of bread on top to close.
  15. EAT IT!! :3
