chicken boxty

 sometimes there comes a time when you just have to say - i don't care what the kids want to eat, or will eat, or don't like to eat.  i am going to make what I want to eat!

and then you do and everyone likes it.

that happened recently when we had some leftover rotisserie chicken in the fridge and my brain said - make boxty

and so i did.

i used this recipe for the pancakes, and then just sort of made my own filling because i didn't have bacon or mushrooms, but used peas and onion instead.

 


 

a couple of days later there were still 2 pancakes in the fridge, so the mister and i turned them into breakfast boxty's with egg
