Eggs in (Pasta) Purgatory
This is my favorite way to utilize extra leftover pasta. It’s the perfect comfort food, especially during the winter. Ingredients: Olive oil 2 eggs About half of a box of pre-cooked pasta of your choice About half of a jar of pasta sauce of your choice (can be precooked if you’re using leftovers) Extra: cherry…
Spinach & Bean Egg Toasts with Red Pepper Flakes
This was a spontaneous idea inspired by a can of beans that has lived in my pantry forever – how’s that for food blog glamour? I didn’t know what to expect with this one, but I had a feeling throwing red pepper flakes on it would make it taste good, no matter what. It turns…
Poached Egg Benedicts with Prosciutto, Goat Cheese, Balsamic and Apricot Jam
This isn’t the first time you’ve seen me pair eggs with goat cheese and prosciutto. I can’t help myself. I buy the ingredients for one prosciutto crostini recipe and end up making a different breakfast out of all of them for weeks. No regrets. This particular version is a poached eggs benedict I made a…
Spiralized Butternut Squash Egg Nests
I’ve wanted to make a nest breakfast for a long time, but I don’t own a spiralizer, and they (possibly irrationally) scare me. So I asked my boyfriend to grab me whatever pre-spiralized item our grocery store happened to be selling one day, which varies from zucchini, to sweet potato, to other squashes. Butternut squash-oodles…
Smoked Salmon Avocado Toast with Soft Boiled Eggs
I had extra smoked salmon from a previous recipe, so I created this quick, dressed up avocado toast to use it! If you make a similar avo toast, tag me, and you might be featured in the Yolk Lover’s Guide! Ingredients: 2 pieces of bread 1 avocado About 2 slices of smoked salmon (I used…
Savory Tomato Waffle “Hash” with Eggs
I’ve made a lot of breakfasts with savory waffles, so this time I tried something new: using chopped-up plant-based tomato waffles like hashbrowns and frying an egg in them. Specifically, I used swapples, made by a local DC startup that makes amazing healthy frozen waffles, but you could try this with other thick, Belgian-style waffles,…
English Muffin Breakfast Sandwiches
This is one of the first meals I made in the new apartment I moved into this month – the beginning of my foray into electric stove cooking. I was delighted to find that frying eggs on an electric stove isn’t so hard (poaching is a whole other story) and that creating this fast food-inspired…
Turkish Breakfast with Sliced Soft-Boiled Eggs
Fact: It’s possible to love charcuterie-style meals so much that you look for ways to make cheese, crackers and cold-cuts acceptable for breakfast – until you remember that Turkish cuisine has already done that. With memories of the feta, fresh bread and salted boiled eggs I nibbled on for breakfast at a hostel in Istanbul…
Eggs in Bell Pepper Rings with Cherry Ketchup Hashbrowns and Spinach
I demonstrated this recipe LIVE with ‘Chups Condiments on their Facebook show, “Makin’ Stuff” this week! It’s an oldie but a goody – a breakfast from the early days of Meag’s Eggs that incorporates healthy veggies while filling you up! And it’s quick enough to make before work. ‘Chups is a local DC condiment company…
Perfect Circle Eggs on Pancakes
You don’t need me to tell you how to make pancakes (or do you?). This one is less of a hard recipe and more of an effort to make eggs more whimsical. The key: a circle-shaped cookie cutter. Try it out (possibly using other shapes?) and show me how it goes – you might be…
Prosciutto Naan Breakfast Pizzas
This was the week of naan pizzas – complete with a saltier, meatier version, compared to the zucchini/squash one I made previously. To contrast the prosciutto’s saltiness in this version, I baked the pizzas with tomato slices as a topping. I removed them for my photos, because I didn’t like how the colors were working…
