This week in, “what can I make with these five random ingredients,” comes a successful eggsperiment combining a leftover baguette and the produce currently in my refrigerator. I love when I get to take my time playing around with recipes like this on a Sunday! I asked what I should call this on Instagram, and…

Poached Eggs On Sweet Potato Toast with Avocado and Goat Cheese
I don’t claim to be a health-food blog, but I feel so good after making this alternative-to-bread breakfast! I was inspired by the many delicious-looking sweet potato toasts fellow-blogger Skylar Allen makes (see her Instagram). While Skylar roasts hers in the oven, I, being impatient, grilled mine over the stove. It turned out so good,…
Poached Eggs on Pasta alla Bolognese
I am truly in love with this meal. Meaty bolognese sauce? Scrumptious rotini noodles? Topped with creamy, runny poached eggs?! My breakfast and dinner fantasies had a baby. If you have extra leftover pasta, and have already tried eggs in pasta hell or eggs in pasta nests, you must try my favorite yolk pasta combo…
Eggs in Pasta Nests
You know me: I like to put eggs in my pasta leftovers. Here’s a new, snack-size way to do it. Stay tuned for updates as I try these nests with more types of pasta! Also, consider these for your meal-prep purposes – they were just as delicious the second day. Ingredients: 6 eggs (Makes 4 pasta…
Baked Eggs Caprese Cups
Why make eggs on toast when you can transform your bread into something cute and Italian-inspired? I had basil and tomatoes at home, and so this caprese variation was born. Try it and let me know what you think! Ingredients: 4 pieces of bread (I used white bread) 4 eggs 2 slices of deli-sliced mozzarella…
Spicy Spinach Eggs with Greek Yogurt
This recipe starts your day with a healthy kick of greens, and looks beautiful. I was inspired by this version from Bon Appetit mag (that is a little more involved) and adapted it into a quicker, possible-before-work meal. It’s great for weekend brunch, too, though – I hope you enjoy it! Ingredients: 2 eggs Olive oil…
Baked Eggs Ciabatta Rolls
Eggs nestled in a bed of Italian-style bread = match made in heaven. Inspired by Bon Appetit Magazine’s latest cover, wandering the bakery section of my grocery store I thought to myself, what can I put an egg on here? My eyes landed on these mini ciabatta rolls, and I was sold. Throw in the veggies…
Sriracha Mayo Breakfast Tacos
This combo came together Sims style: What can I make out of these 5 ingredients I need to use before they go bad? Thus, these vegetarian-friendly sriracha mayo tacos with tomato, salsa, avocado and soft-boiled eggs were born! I used Sir Kensington’s sriracha mayo as the base, but you can mix together sriracha and regular mayonnaise,…
Baked Eggs Bell Pepper Cups
I saw a recipe video on Facebook depicting cheesy bell pepper “pizzas” and knew immediately that I wanted to try a Mexican version of it. And I’m so glad I did – they turned out so good, I’ve now made this for both dinner and breakfast in the last week! The cilantro spread I used as…
Sun-dried Tomato Waffle Egg Cups
This savory waffle breggfast has officially been added to my list of all-time favorites! I was inspired by a local D.C. startup called SWAP Foods that makes plant-based, gluten free AND paleo frozen waffles. (Here’s my interview with their founder when I first discovered swapples last year). These cups were such a delicious way to use them….
Spinach & Eggplant Breakfast Pita Pizzas
I recently discovered a South Indian-inspired eggplant spread made here in Washington, D.C. It’s perfect with eggs, pita bread, tortilla chips or toast — but my new favorite way to use it is as a sauce for breakfast pita pizzas! The spread is by Sasya Foods, a locally-based company making vegan and gluten free spreads that also happen…
Savory Veggie Baked Eggs Pastry
My first puff pastry eggsperiment! There are so many possibilities with puff pastry (that I’ll probably try in the future), but for now I started with a quick baked eggs and veggie combo. Try it out (it’s a quick one – doable before work) and if you make any modifications, take pics and show me! Ingredients:…
