DIRECTIONS

For The Mac’s Mac and Cheese
1.
Combine milk and water in a sauce pan and bring to a simmer. In a separate skillet, toast panko breadcrumbs in melted butter. Once the milk and water are simmering, add a pasta of your choice.
1 cup Milk
1 ½ cups Water
½ cup Panko Breadcrumbs
3 ½ tbsp Butter
8 ounces Pasta of Choice
2.
On medium low heat, gently cook pasta until all liquid is absorbed. Go back and forth between stirring pasta and flipping breadcrumbs.
3.
Once breadcrumbs are a nice golden brown, remove from heat, put in a bowl, and toss with grated Romano cheese.
2 ounces grated Romano Cheese
4.
When the liquid is absorbed, put the cooked pasta on very low heat and add shredded American cheese along with dijon mustard and stir.
4 ounces shredded American Cheese
½ tsp Dijon Mustard
5.
Once the American cheese is melted, stir in additional shredded sharp cheddar. Add a little shake of cayenne, cover, and let sit for 5 minutes.

4.
For The Grilled Frank
1.
Start by making the pepper jelly: chopping the green pepper, red pepper, and a few jalapeños and don’t remove seeds to keep that heat. Put into a food processor until it’s at a salsa-like consistency.
1 Green Pepper
1 Red Pepper
3 Jalapeños
2.
In a medium bowl, add granulated sugar and pectin powder, then whisk together and set aside.
2 cups Granulated Sugar
3 tsp Pectin Powder
3.
In a medium saucepan combine chopped peppers and white vinegar, cover, and bring to a simmer. Cook for 10 minutes. In the meantime heat up a giant pot of water with two canning jars inside.
1 cup White Vinegar
4.
Once the peppers have simmered for 10 minutes, add the sugar pectin mixture, and cook for an additional 2 minutes until dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool for about 15 minutes.
5.
Then take the canning jars out of the hot, but not boiling water, and set on towel. Fill with pepper mixture, leaving a ¼ inch headspace at the top of the jar. Go ahead and wipe the jars and place lids on top.
6.
Gently place the jars into the big pot with enough boiling water to cover them completely. Boil for 10 minutes.
7.
Safely remove and see if the caps have popped down yet, indicating that a vacuum has been created; however it might take a few minutes after removing from water. Let jars cool overnight.
8.
For The Crepe Batter
1.
In a blender, add eggs, whole milk, water, all-purpose flour, and melted butter. Pulse that together about 10 times, making sure it’s smooth and homogeneous. Let chill in fridge for at least 45 minutes up to overnight so there are no bubbles.
2 Eggs
¾ cup Whole Milk
½ cup Water
1 cup All Purpose Flour
3 tbsp Melted Butter
2.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Cover an oven pan with foil and place a rack on top to cook the meat. Then place various meats including thick cut bacon, breakfast sausages, and some thin slices of spam on top. Cook in oven for 20-25 minutes until brown and crisp.
Thick cut pieces of Bacon
Breakfast Sausages
Spam
3.
Bring out a crepe maker pan and lubricate with unsalted butter. Begin pouring a thin layer of crepe mix on top and cook both sides. Repeat until desired number of crepes.
Unsalted Butter
4.
Fill the crepes with a couple pieces of each of the meats and wrap like a burrito.
5.
In a small bowl beat egg and milk. In another small bowl fill halfway with plain breadcrumbs. Coat each burrito crepe in the egg milk mixture, then cover generously with breadcrumbs.
1 Egg
½ cup Milk
Plain Breadcrumbs
6.
In a saucepan, heat a generous amount of ghee (clarified butter) to 375°F before dropping in the coated crepe burritos. Deep fry.

Enjoy the deeply unhealthy and culturally confused crepe things!
