Today, I am thankful for two things. First, I am so glad that the health benefits of eating eggs have been restored. Second, I am pleased that my family loves eggs -- fried, scrambled, hard or soft boiled, poached, Benedict, Florentine, or baked. Quiche is a regular at our dinner table, and breakfast burritos are an infrequent but beloved indulgence. And, should you join us for a meal, you might discover eggs in your salad, atop breaded cutlets, or scrambled in broth or pasta.
For a simple brunch or quick dinner, try Baked Eggs on a Bed of Sauteed Greens. I prefer Swiss chard, pastured eggs, a side of crusty bread for soaking up the yolk, and a large wrought iron skillet. Be bold and true to your palette as this recipe is forgiving and flexible which may make it a regular offering on your personal menu.
Hint: More egg based recipes are sure to follow right here on Gatherings. Don't miss them!
