Questions & Replies

I have a question about store-bought pre-made mush. I'm disabled and it's just a lot easier for me to make the premade mush. We usually just slice it up dust it with flour and fry it in a little butter. I want to try something new. I would like to still dust it with a little flour but bake it until it becomes nice and crispy and then use it like a bread and put a fried egg in between with maybe a sausage patty or bacon and make like a breakfast sandwich out of it. My question is to anyone who may have tried it or may just have an idea. Do you think this would work and do you think it would taste good? I love doing crazy dishes like omelets made with leftover pasta and I just thought this would taste good. Instead of using English muffins I would like to use crispy baked mush. So anyone who has an idea please throw it out there. Thank you.
