Finishing off this week with one more chicken/egg related post! Our ladies are laying with a passion and we are averaging more than a dozen eggs a day. Such a blessing, but also a little overwhelming! I recently searched the Internet for different ways to use them up and am rounding up a bunch of recipes here. Maybe it will inspire you to use this inexpensive protein source in new ways too!
BREAKFAST IDEAS
+ Frittata with Bacon, Spinach, Tomato and Swiss from Cooking Classy // I’ve shared (and photographed) this recipe before; it’s definitely my go-to breakfast lately and easily adaptable to what you have in the fridge.
+ Breakfast Enchiladas from Countryside Cravings // My kids love enchiladas, so this could be a fun twist. This recipe has uses scrambled eggs, sausage, green chilies and cheese.
+ Ham, Egg and Cheese Hashbrown Muffins from Will Work For Smiles // These muffins start with a hashbrown “basket” and are then filled with eggs and other toppings. A great choice for on-the-go. I wonder if they’d freeze well too?
+ Huevos Rancheros Breakfast Tostadas from Krazy Kitchen Mom // The post says that this is a hearty meal and if you load up all of the ingredients, one tostada serves most. Love that!
+ Bacon and Potato Quiche from Kitchen Dreaming // I’ve never tried a quiche that uses potatoes, but I bet it’s quite filling.
LUNCH AND DINNER IDEAS
+ Tex-Mex Migas from Gimme Some Oven // Another recipe that I’ve never tried before, but looks delicious! You only need scrambled eggs, leftover chips, salsa and cheese.
+ Homestyle Egg Salad from Everyday Dishes // It’s been a long time since I’ve whipped up a batch of egg salad. So delicious on a thick slice of homemade bread.
+ Fried Egg Grilled Cheese Sandwich from Great Grub, Delicious Treats // This one is a twist on eggs and toast and I know some of my boys would love it.
+ Croque Madame from Tastes Better From Scratch // How about something a little fancier? These sandwiches are made with ham, gruyere, parmesan cheese, a layer of béchamel sauce, and topped with a fried egg.
Your turn! What’s your favorite way to serve eggs? I’d love to hear about your go-to recipes.
I recently made a recipe from the internet baked eggs with tomato and spinach I believe is the recipe and it seems everyone likes them
Sounds delicious! I’ll look for the recipe, thanks!
