Easter bunnies, and Easter eggs!
April 3, 2010
When leaving from our shopping trip this afternoon, we came across a bake sale for the Relay for Life… petite cakes for a good cause? why not!

I got had a semi-last minute urge to make deviled eggs for easter! Inspired by a trick I saw our family friend, Cindy, do a few years ago, I wanted to dye the egg whites, instead of the shells!
Very cute finish, and just as tasty as always!

To make your own, hard boil your eggs following your favorite recipe.
Remove the shells, and dye your eggs in food coloring and water (skip the vinegar) until you reach the desired shade of color.
Halve the eggs and continue on with your favorite recipe!
Over and easy!

Open-faced breakfast sandwich for dinner
I was surprised! For the first time in some time, Eric said he wouldn’t change a thing! (he’s usually picky about ingredients or spices)
~~~~~~
Here’s how it went:
Toast two pieces in a pan with hot olive oil on both sides, and set on plate.
Crack two eggs into the pan, season with salt and pepper them, flip if you want them over-easy.
Place a few thin slices of the fontina cheese on the toast, and place the eggs on top, hot out of the pan.
Top with thin sliced scallion, and chopped fresh dill, and serve!
~~~~~~
Didn’t take too much time to make, let alone prep. Not to mention it’s the first chance I’ve been able to use anything from my garden, so yay! Double success for me!
Tonight’s dinner? I think it’ll be eggsellent!

My garden from about 2 weeks ago (it's even more full now)
I’m here looking at this year-old copy of Food Network magazine, and I’ve been inspired to try something lighter for dinner tonight.
I’m not sure what Eric’s got in mind, but I want to make a variation in mind of a recipe I’ve come across:
An open-faced fried egg sandwich (over easy or sunny-side up), with sliced scallions and fresh dill (from my AeroGarden!) and thin slices of fontina cheese…
Ugh… I’m so hungry now, and I won’t be home until after 5.
Grumble.
