A time to relax with a leisurely breakfast shared with friends and family. So. I am on the lookout for festive breakfast foods that will be memorable and worthy of a special occasion. Eggs in Bell Pepper Rings So, I decided to try my luck using an avocado slice. It was very recently that I discovered that avocados are delicious when gently cooked.

I saw this idea on an episode of The Next Iron Chef, where heavy hitter Geoffrey Zakarian made eggs and avocados, so I decided to try this at home. There isn’t a “recipe,” really, all you do is this: Heat a non-stick skillet to low heat.
NOte: this post was just made party of a link party for California Avocados on Cookin Canuck. Black Bean Guacamole Omelette. Roasted Portobello Mushrooms with Poached Eggs in a Creamy Mushroom Sauce. It has been a while since I last made a really nice mushroom dish and consequently mushrooms have been on my mind a lot lately.
The one idea that kept coming up was to do a version of eggs benedict where the English muffins are replaced with roasted portobello mushroom caps. Since I was going with a mushroom theme I figured that a tasty mushroom sauce would be a nice replacement for the hollandaise sauce and spinach seemed like a better fit than the ham. With this idea in place I took the opportunity over the weekend to satisfy my mushroom cravings by making these roasted portobello mushrooms with poached eggs in a creamy mushroom sauce for a lazy Sunday morning brunch. Since the mushroom sauce was going to be the star of the show I started with some flavour packed, umami ladened, dried porcini mushrooms to which I added shallots, garlic, thyme, cream and parmesan.

Dill Quinoa Cakes with Avocado, Smoked Salmon, and Poached Eggs. While we’re on the subject of quinoa in “cake” format, let’s go all in this time, foregoing flour altogether and making straight up quinoa cakes… Quinoa cakes have been on our mind ever since we came across them in Maria Speck’s cookbook, Ancient Grains.
Back when we were reviewing the cookbook, we were torn between trying Maria’s Buckwheat Feta Burgers and Quinoa Cakes with Smoked Trout and Lime Mayonnaise. In the end, the Buckwheat Burgers won out because we had never cooked with whole buckwheat before and we wanted to try something “new.” But quinoa cakes stayed in the back of our minds. And when the time came to come up with 30 different ways to cook and eat quinoa, little cakes (or patties, or burgers or whatever you want to call them) were an obvious choice. The cakes are easy to put together. The rest is self-explanatory: sliced fresh avocado, smoked salmon, poached egg. Breakfast in Bread Recipe : Food Network Kitchens. Make-Ahead, Healthy Egg McMuffin Copycats. One of my guilty pleasures is an occasional Egg McMuffin at McDonalds.
I always wished they served breakfast all day, because that's the only thing on their menu that I like. Mickey D's makes them with either Canadian bacon or sausage. I like them both ways. However, like many fast foods, if you ever look at the calories, fat, and sodium in these it becomes even more of a GUILTY pleasure to eat one.
Asparagus Huevos Rancheros. A couple of weeks ago when the local asparagus season had just begun I had asparagus on my mind almost all the time.
Migas. I had a bunch of corn tortillas left over from taco night and I knew just what I wanted to do with them.
I remembered bookmarking several Texmex style breakfasts that called for day old corn tortillas over the last while and when I searched for them migas was the first to come up with this recipe from The Pioneer Woman Cooks. Migas translates to crumbs and is a dish that consists of scrambled eggs, corn tortillas, onions, peppers, tomatoes and some cheese. What I like most about this recipe is all of the fresh ingredients and overall it is pretty healthy, other than the fried tortillas, which you could easily bake. Migas is pretty easy to make even if it does take a bit longer than your average breakfast which makes it perfect for weekends.
The migas turned out really well! Migas (makes 4 servings)Printable Recipe Directions: 1. Breakfast Stuffed Portobellos. I love to stuff portobello mushrooms.
Their shape and size are perfect for that and it’s just so much fun. Grab a portobello, clean it up, season it, stuff it and cook it. How easy is that? Matzo Brei - Passover Breakfast Recipe. This past weekend, my hubby and I drove over to one of our favorite Los Angeles breakfast spots, Factor’s Famous Deli on Pico Boulevard.
Factor’s is a quintessential deli with a big menu full of American-style Jewish delicacies. Usually, I order the same delicious breakfast at Factor’s—toasted egg bagel, cream cheese, smoked salmon, capers and tomatoes. It’s sinfully yummy. But for some reason, on this occasion, I felt like trying something different. One dish stuck out to me, one I’d never tried before but had always been curious about… Matzo brei.
