A-Z Foodie Monday..E




E..
The incredible edible egg..


can be eaten and enjoyed in a variety of ways..
boiled and eaten right out of the shell,
or as Egg salad.. 
which forms the basis for a variety of dishes..

to which can be added, chicken, tuna or potatoes..
creating an entirely new dish!
fried..or scrambled yummy either way,
accompanied by Grits or Hash Browns
for breakfast fare..
and yes..Raw..
for a variety of"medicinal" reasons
and as in Egg Nog ,
(the liquor supposedly cooks the rawness?)


or in a Bloody Mary..
as a cure for  morning after hangover..
baked..with cheeses and vegetables becomes Quiche.


Or baked with milk,creamy custards and Flan.
but the prettiest and most prized are as Easter Eggs..



hunting the golden Prize egg ..
while hoping for a Chocolate egg instead! 



















Everyone's a Foodie winner on Monday's
at Jen's Unglazed  !
Bon Apetite!!!

  2. Eggs are used in my favorite dish-creme brulee!

    But a good omelet is a wonderful thing too.

    Hope you are enjoying your Monday.

  9. I love eggs! The egg salad coming right out of the shell is a great looking dish! Only so many people in my family don't like eggs! Oh, well, I'll make it for myself someday!

welcome to my world of salty sunkissed breezes..
where time is not measured..
linger leisurely..
sift sugary white sand between your toes..
Make and take those wonderful memories..
leaving behind..only your footprints...
