My dh loves the deviled eggs I make. I think that recipe is in All The Best, but I"m not sure. Very easy, and I make it low fat, and he still eats it, lol! Shows the EAD, and you can let them help. Also shows the Chillzanne. HTH

I know there's a recipe out there for a brunch "pizza" made with hashbrowns and eggs and all sorts of toppings. I have it at home but I'm on my work compy right now. Anyone else have it?

 

[ChefBeckyD]

Bountiful Brunch Pizza(it's also in the files here)

 

[JaimeQ]

What are you supposed to cook the eggs in? The micro cooker?

 

[ChefBeckyD]

Do you mean for the Brunch Pizza? I do mine on the stove in cookware, but I think the recipe calls for the batter bowl in the microwave?

 

[JaimeQ]

yea for the brunch pizza... it sounds really yummy and I think I want to make it for my hubby on Sunday morning Are they just scrambled eggs?

 

[ChefBeckyD]

Yep - just scrambled eggs! For a Tex-Mex flair, I add some southwest seasoning to the potatoes, and then serve it w/ salsa, sour cream, and guacamole on the side - it's always a big hit for Brunch Shows!Oh - but make sure your eggs are still "wet" when you assemble the pizza. or they will be overdone by the time you take them out of the oven! And I add 2 eggs to the hashbrowns - makes it more like a crust, and it doesn't fall apart when you are serving it.

 

[JaimeQ]

Sounds soooo yummy Thank you for your help.

 

[klsnyder]

Thanks!!! That sounds great!!

My Brunch showsI often do the egg braid from All The Best, a fruit salad in the trifle, yogurt in a SA bowl with spoon.

Yum! These are some of my most popular shows right now.

The Ham and Cheese Omelet Roll is my favorite brunch recipe. I think it's in the Main Dishes cookbook, but I could be wrong.

Very recently I had a brunch show and we were making the cherry cheese turnovers and the cheesy ham & potato frittata. The Frittata is supposed to be baked in the 10in saute pan for 30 min. When the host took the turnovers out of the oven, she turned it off. We didn't realize this until I went to put the frittata in. I had to think fast. I poured the frittata mixture in the deep covered baker and microwaved it for 10 minutes uncovered. It came out perfect and everyone was impressed. There were only 3 people at that show but I sold the covered baker to 2 of them!
Here is the recipe.

Cheesy Ham & Potato Frittata

Ingredients:
2 cups refrigerated shredded hash brown potatoes
3 ounces ham, chopped (3/4 cup)
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
1/2 cup sliced green onions with tops
8 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded (1/2 cup)

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. In Classic Batter Bowl, combine potatoes, ham, bell pepper and onions; mix well. Spoon into Large (10-in.) Saute Pan.

2. In Small Batter Bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt and black pepper using Stainless Steel Whisk. Pour egg mixture over potato mixture in pan.

3. Bake 30-32 minutes or until eggs are just set in center. Remove from oven. Using Deluxe Cheese Grater, shred cheese evenly over frittata. Let stand 5 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.

Robin those all sound good... can I come eat breakfast at one of your shows???

I'm a big fan of the sausage and red pepper bake with hashbrowns, it's in Stoneware Inspirations and I typed up the recipe on here a while ago, so if you search for red pepper I'm sure you'll find it!

I made my husband and myself the Ham & Cheese Omelet Roll for breakfast this morning. First time I ever made it ... yes, he is my guinea pig. It was really good. He even said it was a keeper. Very filling, tasty and easy. It is in the PC Main Dishes Cookbook p. 120/121. I am definitely adding it to my Brunch Receipes.

This braid has always been popular when I do a 'brunch' show.
Peaches & Cream Braid 2 packages (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent rolls
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese
¼ cup powdered sugar
1 egg
1 can (15¼ ounces) sliced peaches in heavy syrup, drained
½ teaspoon Pantry Cinnamon Plus Spice Blend (or cinnamon)
1 teaspoon water
2 tablespoons almonds
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Unroll 1 package of the crescent dough. Do not separate. Arrange longest side of dough across width of Rectangle Stone. Repeat with remaining package of dough. Using Baker’s Roller, roll dough to seal seams. On longest side of baking stone, cut dough into strips 1½ inches wide and 3 inches deep using Paring Knife. There will be 6 inches of uncut dough down center for filling.
In Classic Batter Bowl, combine cream cheese and powdered sugar. Whisk until smooth using Stainless Steel Whisk. Separate egg using Egg Separator. Add egg white to cream cheese mixture, whisking until smooth. Spread cream cheese mixture evenly down center of dough using Small Spreader.
Coarsely chop peaches with Food Chopper. In Small Batter Bowl, combine peaches and spice blend; toss gently using Small Mix ‘N Scraper. Spoon peaches evenly over cream cheese mixture.
To braid, lift strips of dough across mixture to meet in center, twisting each strip one turn. Continue alternating strips to form braid. Tuck ends up to seal at end of braid. Combine reserved egg yolk with water. Brush egg mixture over dough using Pastry Brush. Chop almonds using Food Chopper. Sprinkle over dough.
Bake 25-28 minutes or until deep golden brown. Remove to Stackable Cooling Rack. Sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar using Flour/Sugar Shaker. Serve warm using Slice ‘N Serve.
