I feel like a hoarder.
A veggie hoarder that is.
Please tell me I’m not the only one?
With Labor Day weekend in t-minus five minutes, I feel as though the summer bounty count down has begun. I don’t know what it is, but once it turns September 1st, I have this sense of panic that all the veggies will disappear. POOF. Vanish. Hasta la vista. This is usually the time of year when I bring a shopping cart to the farmer’s market instead of a tote. Just kidding. Maybe.
Anyways, every year I have to remind myself that I still have at least another month of fresh produce before all the gourds, squash, and pumpkins make an appearance. After a few sniffs of tomatoes and herbs, I come back to earth and breathe my way through September.
So, to make the best of a veggie situation, I decided to make some savory pancakes. Inside the fluffy batter: my favorite CHORIZO and sweet corn. In Colorado, we grow gobs of corn. Sweet corn from Olathe to be exact and it’s some of the best in the country if you ask me. You make these pancakes just like their sweet cousin, only with this version, no syrup is involved. I know, I know just trust me.
You don’t want to miss out on making a sexy heirloom tomato salsa, now do you? Us veggies hoarders have to stick together. Pile the fresh tomato salsa on top with a fried egg. My heavens.
You’ll be “ole-ing” the end of summer all month long.
Do what?
Send help.
In conclusion, our Foodie Fridays journey with Mexican Corn & Chorizo Pancakes, crowned with a fried egg and heirloom tomato salsa, is a culinary masterpiece. Elevate your breakfast experience with this delightful fusion of flavors. Stay tuned for more tempting recipes!
I’m OK with you hoarding vegetables as long as you keep putting them to good use like the pizza and now these pancakes. I want them all and I’m not kidding.
DEAL!! Thanks for understanding:)
Oooo doggie! These look good. I want for breakfast, lunch and dinner! I am jus like you I get in farmers market panic mode this time of year…like I’ll never eat sweet corn or have fresh tomatoes E V E R again!
LOL! So glad I’m not alone, Sheila! 🙂
There’s no shame in being a veggie hoarder!! Especially when you can make yummy pancakes like these you’ve got going on!!
Phew. Thanks, Julie!
Dude. I AM A VEGGIE HOARDER!! I come home from the farmers market as though I’m feeding the Duggar’s!! It’s a problem. A delicious one.
BAHAHAHAHA! And this is why we are friends:)
I never used to feel that way about September, until I became a food blogger, I am in full panic mode. WHAT the heck am I gonna eat in December. Great Pancakes, love that they are savory.
I KNOW, right?! #foodbloggerproblems
I am an everything hoarder. At least you’re hoarding healthy produce. 🙂 This looks delish!
Psssssst….I’m an everything hoarder too. But don’t tell anyone:)
I feel the same way. I get nervous about everything disappearing! Gotta shove as much produce as possible in my face right now. These pancakes look incredible!
Agreed! Produce until the cows come home. Wait. That’s not right.
Our market usually start picking up around the first of August and go through the end of October, so I’m just getting started. 🙂 Now I know I’ll be picking up some sweet corn tomorrow. Love, love, love these pancakes!
Thank you, MJ!!
This looks amazing!
Thanks, Jennifer!
I am ALL about veggie hoarding!!!

High-five to hoarding the veg!
I adore corn pancakes!!! Loving that tomato salsa and these pretty pics!
Why, thank you, my dear!
Love the egg on top, these look amazing!!
Thanks, Matt! #whenindoubtputaneggonit
Savory pancakes! Yay! You have to love bumping things up with some tangy chorizo. I am definitely not TRYING to hoard veggies — but we have a CSA box coming in once a week for the foreseeable future, so the hoarding is kind of pre-done for us. 🙂
Organized hoarding…..I can dig it:)
so fantastically good, lauren!
Thank you, Naomi!
THESE! OH MY GOSH, these are just so awesome. Totally a combo I would love!
I’m going to take up veggie hoarding…hoarding these right into my FACE!!
umm….yes, please. times 100. i want runny eggs on EVERYTHING.
I hoard veggies, too! I can barely close the veggie crisper drawers, buuuuuuuuut you just gave me the PERFECT idea to use ’em all up!! These pancakes and I are going to be like *THIS*!
Chorizo IN the pancakes?! Awesome!
Oh my word. I am dying. This is gorgeous!
Such a totally perfect way to make use of all of the late summer bounty. Plus you can’t go wrong with chorizo can you?!
I have similar veggie fears!! And pinterest is NOT helping with all of these pumpkin recipes everyone is making and posting. Can’t people take a chill pill?!
Well we can continue to celebrate summer together. Awesome corn pancake style.
