The Morning After...

 
By · Updated October 29, 2020

Our friends at Getemgirls.com help you concoct the perfect love potion, food!

 

Ladies, Valentine’s Day is just a few days away and we just wanted to make sure we had all of our Get ‘Em Girls prepared.

Dinner and dessert were a success and somehow your Valentine was lucky enough to spend the night. If you set if off the way you should have, he is probably curled up in the fetal position, on your lavender-scented sheets right now.

So here it is, the morning, and you want to fix him breakfast. Now, before you whip out the eggs and bacon, ask yourself…what type of breakfast did his performance warrant? Was it a cornflakes and milk type of performance? If you’re lucky it was none of those things and we can skip straight to the omelet, waffles, and homemade muffin type of performance. All jokes aside, if he was privileged enough to get past the bedroom doors and stay the night, make sure you send him off in pure Get ‘Em Girl fashion with wonderful memories and a full stomach. Enjoy a couple of our “Morning After” breakfast recipes below. For more of recipes that are sure to Spice Up Your Love Life check out the Get ‘Em Girls’ Guide to the Power of Cuisine.

Salmon Cakes

Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Cook Time: 6 to 8 Minutes
Ready In: 20 Minutes
Yields: 2 to 4 servings

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1/4 cup all-purpose flower

1/4 cup bread crumbs

1 (14.75-ounce) can pink salmon, flaked and de-boned

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1 egg, beaten

2 tablespoons chopped yellow onion

1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1. Heat the vegetable oil in a medium heavy skillet over medium heat. Mix the flower and bread crumbs together in a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the salmon, egg, onion, seasoned salt, black pepper and 1/4 cup of the flour mixture. Mix well and form into patties. Dust each cake with remaining flour mixture.

2. Fry until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Drain on a paper towel-lined platter and serve immediately.
