Frozen Breakfast 2

I hope that the title has gotten you as excited about this dish as I have gotten about the whole concept of a frozen breakfast. Let me once again reiterate that this idea is very much a misnomer because you should not be eating this for breakfast, but rather for dessert. I don't have very much more exposition for you because I have already given you some daily notes in my previous post so, I hope that you will forgive the brevity of my introduction to this dish. Here we go…

You will need:

A cup of the maple flavored fro-yo

1 prepackaged container of Kellogg's Apple Jacks

1 granny smith apple

Cinnamon

Once you have assembled your ingredients, the sundae itself is fairly easy to make. You should mix the cinnamon into the fro-yo so that you end up with an consistent flavor. I recommend that you then mix in the Apple Jacks so that you will have some of then in every bite. In terms of the way you should incorporate the apple, what is displayed in the picture is NOT how you should be cutting the apple. (This is one of those simon-says instances in which you should do as a I say and not as I do.) Rather than cutting the apple into wedges as I have (for the sake of full disclosure I did it just for the photographic image) you want to dice (cut into roughly .5 inch cubes) the apple (or cube it, depending on how large you want the pieces to be, cubing is larger), and mix it in as well so that you have it throughout. The ideal bite will have apple, fro-yo and one or two Apple Jacks. I would expect more frozen breakfasts if I were you, but for now there are only two...

So enjoy them. By DDS and Sam, I am.

One of the worst things about DDS is that everything is SO expensive. Most people survive on daily specials because they are the cheapest way to assuage hunger. I'm sure that there are people who are already shocked by how much their balance has dropped in just a week and a half, I am certainly among those people. This dish is for all of you- my fairly frugal friends (as well as anyone looking for a good dessert) Let's explain the title then, the full name of this dish is Cheap-Ass-Bread-Pudding. This is the absolute cheapest way I have found to have dessert and it is more than satisfying. I sincerely hope you guys appreciate it as much as I did upon conceiving it:

You will need:

2 slices of white bread

Cinnamon

Milk

Caramel

This is perhaps the easiest dish yet, so I will try and keep this brief (which is hard, prolixity is my middle name). In order to get your bread just skip the whole sandwich line at FoCo. I'm not kidding, literally bypass every person waiting in line and go up to the counter (you are only getting two slices of bread, you don't need to waste your time on the line and I don't think that anyone will really care). Then, go get a container of milk (you only need one of the small rectangular ones). That's it, (not for the recipe, but) that's all you will be paying for. I'm not entirely sure how much the milk will run you, but the bread is something like $ .40 per slice (I know, right?). The rest of the recipe is simple. Put obscene amounts of cinnamon on both slices of bread, stack them, then pour a little less than 1/2 of the container of milk on top of the bread (you can put more on if you like your bread pudding soggier), microwave it for about a minute, add caramel (it's by the fro-yo) and poof…

Frozen Breakfast

Let me start off my apologizing for this photo. I'm quite sorry that the above sundae is melty, but it really wasn't my fault: if you haven't yet, you soon will learn that no matter what time you get to FoCo for dinner (save for a 4:30 early bird special) the lines will be long (especially when there is only one cashier and there are some 'shmen who don't know that they have to weigh their salad, etc.) and the fro-yo will be slightly less than fro. At any rate, I promise that despite its appearance, it is absolutely delicious. Moving on… despite the name of this treat, I do not recommend that you eat it at breakfast time, as to me this is more of a dessert (but hey, that's totally up to you). I feel as though you readers (you are reading aren't you?) might find this suggestion slightly unoriginal because any one who has ever been to a fro-yo establishment will have had the opportunity to eat something similar (if not identical). However, while I maintain that it is one of my goals to encourage you to try new things, I am also a great fan of recreating food favorites using DDS ingredients. It shouldn't take you very long to realize that this Frozen Breakfast is for those with a sweet tooth (hence my recommendation that it serve as a dessert as opposed to a breakfast). The concept is simple really: a bowl of frozen cereal. So let's get into it:

You will need:

1 cup of vanilla frozen yogurt

1 prepackaged bowl of Kellogg's Frosted Flakes

1 slightly speckled banana

My recommendation is that you purchase all of the items separately because if you construct the dish before you pay, you'll end up overpaying. DDS has you pay for fro-yo by weight, but they will also have you pay for your cereal and your banana so there is no sense in adding weight to your fro-yo just to pay extra for a heavier cup. There aren't very many measurements that you have to worry about for this one; to play a savory chef, its all made to taste. Put as much fro-yo in your sundae cup as you want (I don't recommend cones with toppings like this), just mix in some Frosted Flakes and slices of banana every now and then. The combination of flavors isn't particularly complex (it's essentially just three sweet things), but it is a fantastic dessert. If you are feeling particularly daring, you can try adding just a tiny bit of caramel (note the second 'A', I can't stand the notion that people actually say CAR-MEL, if you do it, cut it out.) or try a different flavor fro-yo. I'm sure that this is not the last Frozen Breakfast that I will be making, but for now…
