Funny, I don’t actually have a lot of good egg recipes. I like them scrambled. I like them in baked goods and pancakes. Of course, I love them in potato salad, and I know I should boil them more often and slice them over our dinner salads. I have a few generic recipes for breakfast casseroles, but they’re a dime a dozen and not really worth posting (although if you don’t have a stand-by breakfast casserole recipe for brunches, I would recommend seeking one out – good to have on hand!). Other than that, I’m going to defer to some other bloggers who have some great ideas:
Find lots of neat ideas for breakfast for dinner at Sarah’s Musings. After the Meatless Meals Carnival, I tried her Eggs en Cocotte, which was MARvelous with a bit of pesto in the bottom and storebought parmesan cheese (in case you don’t have the real stuff).
Sarah also has a good list of eggy ideas partway down her post on getting iron into your diet, and she had good success with an old-fashioned egg custard mentioned in the first post. She is a great chef and challenges me to try new things!
For another culture’s take on eggs, try Spicy Scrambled Eggs, an Indian-inspired dish, at The Nourishing Gourmet. Kimi also has a yummy sounding recipe for Herbed Baked Eggs that I bet would be great for a fancy brunch.
Kelly the Kitchen Kop has a post with a whole bunch of egg recipes from her readers, in an attempt to do just what I’m doing: get you to eat more eggs!
The bottom line: grab some eggs and figure out how to get them into your diet! You can’t beat the nutrition, and the price is usually pretty doggone cheap to boot.
I have a checklist on my menu planner to help me remember to get the following in at least once a week: eggs, broth, beans, chicken, beef, soup, budget meal. How do you make sure you’re balancing your week?
