RICHLAND CENTER, Wis (WRCO) – RICHLAND CENTER, Wis (WRCO) – Welcome to cooking with Hank. Do you have the hunger? Do you have a couple of bucks and 2 lonely eggs? Hank can feed you!

Egg-in-a-Mug… with Issues™ (Deluxe Breakdown Edition)

Ingredients:

  • 2 lonely egg
  • Half a slice of toast, torn by hand like it owes you money
  • A leftover chicken nugget that survived the purge
  • Salt, pepper, emotional baggage
  • Optional: a single shredded cheese strand you found clinging to the fridge light

Instructions:

  1. Crack that egg into the nearest cleanish mug. Talk to it. It’s your only friend now.
  2. Rip the toast (or nugget) with primal rage and toss it in. Stir like you’re casting a chaotic breakfast spell.
  3. Microwave in 30-second bursts, watching it puff up like it’s about to fight you.
  4. When it smells edible or screams, it’s done. Spoon it out like you’re digging through a broken dream.
  5. Take one bite. Say, “Huh.”
  6. Continue eating anyway, because it’s 2:14 a.m. and the fridge has betrayed you.

Chef’s Note:
Pairs well with a lukewarm can of ginger ale and the sound of your neighbor’s dog barking at ghosts.
