  1. We had an unexpected snowstorm in Israel and we are all stuck in the house. I thought this would be fun to make for the kids for lunch. Similar to Moonstruck Eggs by Heather Feather, but much cuter with the hats! Needless to say, my kids thought these were adorable and gobbled them right up!
     
  2. This turned out really good! I've tried making something like it before. The step of covering the skillet for a few minutes made a difference. One tip: do avoid overcooking use the smaller burner on your stovetop. Also,I used a butter spray instead and saved quite a bit on calories. Next time, I think I'll try using a cookie cutter shape especially with Easter coming around the corner I think a bunny will create a little more intrigue and excitement from my children.
     
  3. This was adorable! I added a slice of salami and provolone cheese to top off my egg hats. Cute, thanks for posting!
     
  4. This is great as french toast also. We've always called them frog-eye toast.
     
  5. My family loves eggs and this gave us a change of pace from the usual egg recipes. It's simple to make and kids and adults like it. The first 2 times that I made it I covered the pan and the eggs were overcooked before the toast was browned. Perhaps because I used a teflon pan. The third time I put the bread in the pan about a minute before the eggs and then it came out perfect and delicious !

I grew up in California and now live in Seattle Washington,and I really love it here! I've been cooking since I was about 10 and still enjoy cooking till this day. I don't really have a favorite food as I enjoy many different dishes. I do really enjoy cooking on a smoker, the taste is out of this world. I also enjoy barbecue, Italian, Mexican and Chinese just to name a few. As you will notice I also enjoy taking pictures of dishes I make, there's nothing like getting that great shot. Thank you for stopping in, I hope you enjoy my site!
