Everything Cheesy Potato and Egg Breakfast Casserole

Once I was served a similar casserole. My longtime friend, Dierdre, had made it. It was perhaps the best thing I ever ate. Maybe it was the hangover?  What’s not to love about cheesy potatoes, baked eggs, and crispy bacon? 

Half Baked Harvest

Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs

I have made these before. Trust me, they were a hit, not to mention so attractive. Each bite is a palate pleaser.

Frothy Orange Creamsicle Cocktail

Refreshing and delicious, this is the perfect brunch cocktail. It's made with vodka, and the froth is beaten egg whites.

Baked Egg Boats

This dish is basically a quiche that uses a hollowed out baguette as its base instead of a buttery pie crust. A terrific twist on a classic.

Spoon Fork Bacon

Jalapeno Cilantro Hash Stuffed Portobellos

The recipe author says it best: "These jalapeno hash stuffed portobellos are deliciously salty from the bacon with a kick of spice and topped off with a poached runny egg."

How To Make Natural Egg Dyes

Loving the idea of natural dyes. If I was dying eggs this year, this would be my method. You use actual food, fruit and veggies to create these subtle colors. These were done with a Vitamix, but I bet any good blender would work. And it is all healthy without chemicals.
