No.562: What to Make With All Those Farm Fresh Eggs // A Recipe Roundup

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.
