Breakfast is one of my favorite meals but I often find myself too much in a hurry to actually make a big elaborate breakfast on a week day, that is when my husbands specialty comes into play “Egg in a Blanket”! I had never had it before I met him but since then it’s been one of my favorite easy and satisfying quick breakfasts to have. I certainly go through phases where I have it everyday! In case you either needed a reminder to make this wonderful breakfast or you never had it like myself many years ago here are the easy instructions:
Egg in a Blanket
Butter both sides of a thick slice of sourdough bread. Cut a hole in the middle,using a cookie cutter or small glass. Melt a little bit of butter in a skillet on low heat. Place bread in

Anyone else craving grilled cheese? Here is a fancy version with cauliflower so you get your portion of veggies too!

Lay the bread on the baking sheet and arrange the A frigate 3F day = soup weather!! Winter Ribollita Soup (Feeds a crowd!)
Happy Thanksgiving! Wishing you a beautiful day with friends and family sharing delicious food.
I have been getting a lot of questions on how to thaw or ”refresh” a loaf of bread. Here is what I do: Frozen Loaf Heat oven to 375F. Unwrap the loaf you had in the freezer and spray it down with some water to get it wet but not soaking wet. Place it directly on the rack in the hot oven for 25-30 minutes. I usually put the loaf in with what ever else I am baking and if you are preparing Thanksgiving dinner the oven is on anyway and you can put the loaf in with any of your last minute dishes. Day Old/ Week Old Loaf If I have a whole loaf that is not frozen or I remembered to thaw it on the counter for a few hours, I wet it down just like the frozen one and put it in a 350F oven for 10-15 minutes and every time I pull these loaves out I am amazed that they get their fresh out of the oven taste and texture back! Your guest will think you just baked it. Stuffing Tips If you are planning on using a fresh loaf from today in your stuffing, make sure to cut it as soon as you get home. It’s a little more difficult to slice and cube a fresh loaf, but the pieces don’t have to be pretty. But it is important to dry them out at least overnight otherwise they get too soggy. P.S. Last week the printed version of the Bread Pudding was missing the number of eggs, sorry! It takes 2 for the recipe. The online version is all updated.
