Egg Recipes

Spring is here! Two things we love this time of year is growing wheatgrass and dying easter eggs, so why not combine the two and grow our wheatgrass in egg shells? It's a perfect seasonal decorating for a sunny room. Keep reading to see the full tutorial

Frittatas are so simple and versatile—you can throw in almost any vegetable or cheese you have in the fridge and easily whip up this classic Italian egg dish. Although traditionally prepared on a skillet, in this recipe, the frittata is baked in a muffin tray, to make individual cups. Enjoy as an on-the-go weekday breakfast, or for brunch on a delicously lazy Sunday morning.

Um, a delicious, healthy, comfort food dinner in 10 minutes?  Really?  

Weekend mornings are special, a chance to take my time making breakfast. Sometimes, though, I don’t want to linger over the cooking. I want a special breakfast made quickly so that I can sit sipping coffee. On those weekend mornings, these Breakfast Quesadillas are the answer.

The hard boiled egg is truly a classic breakfast for Easter morning.

Easter is fast approaching and while dying eggs is fun, there are only so many eggs the Easter Bunny can hide.

These days many people are enjoying producing their own food, whether it be growing vegetables on an allotment or keeping chickens for eggs. 

I'll be the first to admit, sometimes I serve breakfast for dinner. My mother did it before me, and my grandmother before that.

Winter mornings call for hearty breakfasts, which is why I love to make this quick and easy egg wrap.

Once a week my daughter eats lunch at pre-school with her lunch bunch.

I'm not a morning person in any way, shape or form. It's common knowledge that I don't actually wake up until 9:30.

Here's a super yummy recipe for Thai food lovers! Although there's no meat, this recipe offers a ton of protein with eggs, peanut butter, and peanuts.  And because it's made with rice noodles, Pad Thai also makes for a fantastic gluten-free dish!

If you couldn’t tell by my last few posts on Momtastic, I am trying to make an effort to make better breakfasts. Having my kids just grab a bowl of cereal and calling that good wasn’t enough anymore.

I love teaching how to make frittatas, because once you get the technique down, it's a matter of just adding your favorite flavors.

So maybe you've finally come up with a few recipes to use all those colored eggs from Easter, but why waste the pretty pastel eggshells?

This charming egg tree uses plastic eggs that are so abundant and economical this time of year, eliminating the need to hollow out real ones. 

We’ve had a pancake winter at our house. My daughter has always liked pancakes, but now she can’t get enough of them.

Mornings around our house are always hectic. Getting four kids ready for school and out the door in time to beat the first bell isn’t always an easy accomplishment and finding ways to feed them a quick and easy (but nutritional)  breakfast can often be challenging.

It’s time to share a secret: you don’t have to wait until the summer to enjoy tomatoes. I know a way that you can enjoy dishes that feature tomatoes all year round, without having to endure the anemic, mealy globes that pass for tomatoes most of the year.

Maybe corned beef hash is not your thing?  To be totally honest, it wasn't mine until earlier this month when I began exploring some St. Patrick's Day recipes. And I must say, this dish rocks!
 

You've heard of Dr. Seuss' Green Eggs and Ham, right?

I'm all about a super quick, nutritious breakfast! I usually make this for myself after getting the kids off to school, the house picked up, and my coffee brewed. 

I was a bit thrown when my super sweet four-year-old son asked me to create a breakfast that would look like his new teddy bear (who's dressed as a pumpkin, by the way).  Okay, I'll be honest.  It didn't turn out looking exactly like the stuffed bear/pumpkin, but it was cute and was eaten right away!  Hooray!
 

If your kids are like most (not like mine, of course), this is a really great, quick and easy breakfast, even for a busy school day.
