Eggs Are For More Than Just Eating, There Are Many Reasons To Love The Egg

Get cracking with eggs! You have just landed on a page all about eggs...There are reasons you should like eggs, not just for eating but also as home decorations, jewelry and yes even Easter...

For eating I prefer free range eggs and farm fresh eggs if I can get them...I also only eat brown eggs, I like the deep yellow that the yolk has and I also think they have a much better taste...

Here at my house we also eat eggs for dinner on those days that we need something quick and easy to make, other than a can of soup, eggs are very fast to cook...Let's not forget Easter without the egg what would you put in the basket along side the chocolate bunny...

According to the Harvard Heart Letter eggs are a good source of nutrients...One egg contains 6 grams of protein and some healthful unsaturated fats and If you like eggs, eating one a day should be okay, especially if you cut back on saturated and trans fats...

This Is An Age Old Question

It's been asked since I was a little girl and it's still a good question, with no real answer

The Egg and I

A book written by Betty MacDonald

Betty MacDonald wasn't prepared for life in the wild after she married her husband...After the wedding they moved to a small chicken farm on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State...With no running water, no electricity, a house in need of constant repair, and days that ran from four in the morning to nine at night, the MacDonalds had barely a moment to put their feet up and relax...Then came the kids and with all that they never lost their sense of humor...The Egg and I is a heartwarming and uproarious account of adventure and survival on an American frontier...

Eating Eggs As A Child

Eggs are the easiest to learn to cook

When I was a child my mother would make us eggs for breakfast, back when I was growing up people would never dream of eating eggs for lunch or dinner...Fast forward to today and I now eat eggs for dinner, lunch and still for breakfast not all on the same day tho...

As a child learning to cook wasn't a natural thing for me and to this day I'm still not into cooking all that much...My mother used to make an egg breakfast for us that she had called Holy Eggs (still not sure why she called it that), this was the very first meal I learned to cook...I will be adding the instructions that are super easy to follow and who knows maybe you'll teach your own daughter how to make Holy Eggs...
Today people know this egg meal as other name variations, here's a few examples:
  • Bull's Eye
  • One Eyed Egyptians
  • Egg In The Basket
  • Bird's Nest
  • One-Eyed-Monster

Holy Egg Recipe

With only five easy steps and three ingredients

The Three Ingredients You'll Need

  • Bread (I use multigrain or Canadian harvest)
  • Butter or Margarine
  • Eggs (I prefer to use brown eggs)

Use Homemade Bread For This Recipe

Best deals on bread makers

This bread maker has dual bread pans so now you can make not one but two 1-pound loaves...This machine has 14 baking functions and can even make low carb and gluten free bread...Comes complete with measuring cup, measuring spoon, and recipe book...

Step One You'll Need The Butter And A Knife


Butter Both Sides Of The Bread


Try to butter both sides evenly just like if you were making a grill cheese sandwich...I usually butter all the bread slices I'm using on the one side first, then I flip them over and butter the other side...I make sure that when I'm buttering the second side not to press to hard or the bread slices will stick together...

Step Two You'll Just Need A Knife


Cut A Circle In The Bread


I use a butter knife for cutting the hole, but any knife will do...I find that bread isn't has hard to cut as some things so you really shouldn't need any sharper of a knife...I cut a circle in my bread to be different you could cut a square or even a triangle if you like...

Step Three Heat The Frying Pan


Put Bread In Hot Frying Pan


Here you'll need to be careful not to burn yourself and if your showing your child how to cook this is where you'll want to stress the act of what not being careful will mean...The stove can be fun to create interesting meals and desserts, but it also can be very dangerous if your not paying attention...

Step Four Grab The Eggs


Crack Eggs Into Hole Of Bread


This isn't to hard of a step, everyone who is cooking or learning to cook should know how to crack an egg, just make sure you don't get any of the egg shell into your meal...

Step Five Begin The Cooking Process


Cook 3 - 4 Minutes Flip Over And Repeat


This will totally depend on how you like your eggs, I like mine a little on the runny side so I only allow these to cook for about 2 minutes on each side...
