Eggs eggs and more eggs!

If you add bacon, sausages, hash browns, black pudding, grilled tomatoes and baked beans, you've got the perfect all day breakfast!

The poster is vegetarian so that is not an option.

as it happens, i did find a souffle type recipe using bread instead of flour. I will find the magazine (young junior chef) and type it up here so if you are ever in this predicament again, you could do a mushroom and cheese souffle.

Oh thanks so much for posting that up, it sounds really good! :T I'm going to have to get a notebook to write down all these recipes, lol, it's a bit change from when I used to shove ready meals in the microwave!

One point, it says use a food processor which I haven't got, I have only the jug type blender, and not sure it will be big enough, I guess I could do it in two halfs though!

I do an 'egg fried rice' type meal

boil rice in stock (for a bt of extra flavour)
fry off anything you have (onions / quorn / veggies) and throw in some spices (i like garam masala) - mix in your egg (like scrambled)
add your drained rice to the frying pan and combine

cheap, filling and delicious

This sounds really yummy, but I'm just wondering, what's the consistency of the cooked dish like magicgirl? or haven't you made it?

OH will eat egg - in frittatas and omelettes - but he's not too keen on, erm, runny, gooey dishes if you know what I mean

magicgirl

well, the last time i made souffle, it was like a mixture of scrambled eggs/soft quiche type thing. more fluffy than runny although to be fair, i have not tried this particulat recipe. it was the idea of subbing the bread for the flour that intruigued me but as i found it in a kiddies book, i am guessing it would not be too hard to get it wrong if followed.

my way of getting round foood processor (i don't have one either but may invest as i have seen loads of recipes that call for one lately) is soaking the bread in the egg (or perhaps a splash of milK) and then whizzing with electric whisk (although that may be just as difficult if you have none. )
