Green Devils

And ham, or bacon!

I was going to make these for my family while they were here on vacation, but my oldest nephew didn't come, and the younger ones were like, EW! Ssssseriously? If you have kids at home, they'll probably turn their head inside out of you were to present them with green eggs. That's the thing about kids...they don't know what's good, you have to show them! So, make these 'Green Devils' for your adult friends and family, just not for the keg party. Or beer of any kind, really.

Boil, peel, slice, and you know how to make deviled eggs, don'tchya?
Do that, add smashed avocado, top with smoked paprika.
Kick ass and take names.
Top with bacon bits or serve at brunch with bacon...mmm!






It's okay if you can't stop thinking about Dr. Suess.

No-Crust Quiche

This beauty...no idea what's in it...eggs and onions & cheese is all I can make out for sure. I can't remember--I made it this spring while at my Mom's and although there's nothing new about having one without a crust--no crust and no bisquick is new.

I loved it! I'm not sure why I don't make a few hundred of them at a time and freeze them, as they sure come in handy when you've got a hangover or have some company drop in...looks fancy, but really easy-peasy!

Brunch? Anyone...?

Spinach & Tomato Breakfast Pie

Hungry this morning & tired of the same 'ole, same 'ole...BLAH.  So I rolled out a pie crust in the pan, set oven 350, chopped a fresh tomato, threw in: some spinach, diced green onions, goat cheese, crumbled tomato & basil feta, fresh basil, parmesan, 2 eggs beaten w/ fat free half & half. Didn't set the timer, just kept watch, put foil on crust so that it didn't get too brown & found out later I should have done that 5 minutes earlier.  I shredded a little cheddar on top after I pulled it from the oven.  Let cool, slice, S&P...and holy shit--write it down, share :)

***This little gem is from my original, totally neglected blog, but since this is the season for those wonderful homegrown tomatoes and fresh basil, I thought it would be a good time to re-introduce. I used to have a recipe, like, a legit recipe that was given to me by my little old lady neighbor, Sally...what a firecracker she was! She knew I was getting loads of tomatoes brought in by my clients at the beauty shop because I shared them with her. In return, she clipped a recipe from the Daily Oklahoman that was called Tomato, Onion, and Cheese Pie. It was a bit more intricate and time consuming, but it was TO DIE FOR...and that recipe was the inspiration for this one. Nowadays, I would exclude the crust, and it's just as tasty, but for those of you supermutants that aren't affected by carbs, think of us who are while your enjoying it...creeps!

I looked for it, I can't find it, I'll post when I find one similar. The ones I did find on the interwebs weren't quite close enough. The search continues...
