Eggs

What to do with all of these eggs

I tell you the girls are busy.

Well average so far.

I thought I'd share the recipe I made last night.

1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt

2 cups shredded Pepper Jack cheese or

mozzarella cheese (8 ozs) or any cheese you like

1/2 of a 3 oz package cream cheese, cut up

 Note: I added, pepperoni, salami, and broccoli to mine. 

other ideas, ham, onions, green peppers, tomatoes

mushrooms, chicken, ground beef, bacon.

Marinara  (recipe below) or Spaghetti sauce, heated, for serving.

1.  In a small mixer bowl combine eggs, milk,

flour, baking powder, and seasoned salt.  

Beat at low speed until blended.

Add the cheeses and any additional items, 

such as meat and veggies,

 beat until combined

2.  Pour into an ungreased 9 inch pie plate.  

Bake, uncovered, in a 350 degree oven about 35 minutes 

or until knife inserted near the center comes out clean.

3.  Decorate top with tomato wedges if desired.

Cut into wedges and serve with sauce.

Gail's Marinara Sauce

2 cans tomato sauce or 1 large can

1 Tablespoon olive oil

1 Tablespoon dried oregano

2 Tablespoons dried parsley flakes

2 bay leaves

1 Tablespoon dried Italian seasoning

1 Tablespoon granulated garlic

Salt and pepper to taste

1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon sugar

1 Tablespoon butter

Combine all in a small sauce pan, and over 

a simmer heat the sauce (lid suggested and left ajar)

turn off heat and let set so flavors can marry.

Warm to serve.

Is even better the next day!

Kirk says I hit this sauce on the head.  So it is a keeper

and why I am sharing it with you.

Here we have a slice that I am having for lunch,

nearly took a bit, then remembered 

the picture. 

I hope you will give this a try, 

let me know how you like it.

Any egg recipes to share? 

 I would love to try them out.

Have a blessed day and

thank you for coming over for a visit.
