Florence's Eggs Italiano

"My mother grew up during the depression and while food was abundant in their family My Grandfather had a lot of mouths to feed. Nobody wasted anything. My Grandmother described her ingredients as "dear" even though they had a grocery store with access to more than most people in the neighborhood did. My Mom remembered this recipe and made it for us when she had some of her spaghetti sauce (gravy, as we called it)leftover -"Oh, it's not enough for a plate of spaghetti but your Dad will love this", and he did. You can either scramble the eggs or leave them whole - do them in a skillet or do it in the oven. Anyway you do it will be yummy."

  1. Good, simple recipe for your eggs. As good as the pasta sauce you're using. I also like making use of the leftovers.

Hello Zaars and Zaarinas! Thank all of you who tried my 'memory' recipes and left such nice reviews and for taking such lovely pictures. I do appreciate your comments. My pet peeves about cooking are recipe reviews where the reviewer says, "I made the recipe exactly as written EXCEPT yada yada yada" and I don't like suggestive names or titles such as, "Better Than Sex". I don't know why anyone would eat anything that is 'sinful' or 'decadent' since decadent is described as being decaying. Also, PAP-RI-KA only has 3 syllables. VINAIGRETTE is pronounced vin-a-grette, not vinager-ette. It's mas-car-pone not mars-ca-pone. And I don't like cutesy adult baby talk,,, or metro chic names like delish, nutrish, yummo, sammy, BAM! Oh well, I make as many, or more, faux pas as the next guy especially in ASL! Things that crack me up are: DH Fred from youtube.com Nick, my nephew Fish and Poi song as performed by PoiBoi My possum recipe per the song on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVvL4-srt6U http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpbyM8k7e2Q wow this is good! my Doggie Little Yellow Petey Bird on youtube My BFF's. all of them and there are so many! and my little Sister Mary Beth. She has MS and Lupus and a great attitude. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg">
