I have been experimenting with pizza crusts. So I have a ton of pizza dough lying around. You can only have so many pepperoni pizzas before you need to find something different. So I decided to try my hand at breakfast pizza. If you have been near a TV at all over the past couple of days you know that it has snowed here in DC. It has snowed a lot, roughly 27 inches. I have a front wheel drive car and there is no chance of me getting out of my house for another day at least. So I had to substitute a few ingredients in my breakfast pizza. Normally I would use salsa as the base, but since I had none and there was no way of me getting to the market. However, I did have a can of diced tomatoes. So I substituted that. It was still good, but salsa is the best.

The pizza browned nicely and allowed the eggs to finish setting. The best way to start the morning.

The other day I was reading the December issue of Food and Wine and I came across this recipe and I had to try it. Roasted tomato sauce and eggs. So simple yet I had never even thought of trying it. Although it takes a bit to make it, the tomato sauce can be made ahead of time so that you can make a quick and easy dish.

Well all of that bacon, butter, ice cream and deep frying has gone to my waist. Time to start eating healthier. Well, at least once a week. Also, not too healthy as I need to have my daily dose of bacon. But, here is the start.

Bacon Quinoa with a Poached Egg
Quinoa sounds like (key-new-a) is a grain-like crop that is full of protein, contains essential amino acids and is also gluten free. Unlike cereals like wheat or rice, quinoa is a edible seed from chenopod which is a close relative of the tumbleweed. Sounds gross, I know, but this stuff is good for you. For being a complete protein source it tastes really good. Although, that maybe because I started with bacon fat, but anyways it goes great with bacon. It has a texture similar to couscous and can be used an alternative for couscous or rice.

This weekend I woke up with a little hangover and wanted to have a nice breakfast. When I walked into the kitchen all I found was a potato, onion and four mushrooms. What to do? The first thing was to add bacon to it. Without bacon fat, my hangover was not going anywhere. Next I found a couple of eggs and I was on a roll. Luckily, my Mom sent me a new food processor that could shred that potato in a second. Clearly the stars were aligning in my kitchen.

The cure to end all cures
Bacon Mushroom Hash served with a couple over easy eggs. Look at that yolk run.

One of my favorite brunch items is Eggs Benedict. I love hollandaise sauce but some times you just walk into a restaurant and you just don’t trust the chef with preparing it correctly. To fix this problem I say, make it at home. Traditional hollandaise can take a lot of work and time to prepare, but blender hollandaise takes only a minute or two to prepare. You can have the Eggs Benedict on the table in a matter of minutes.

I love brunch and I love quiche. However, today I didn’t feel like making a pie crust so I made a bacon crust for the quiche. Basically you form it like you would a real pie crust. You need to blind bake it with the help of some parchment and beans. Then you fill with your egg mixture and serve. Completely amazing.

Awesome, all crusts should be made of bacon.
You need to make sure to fully cook the bacon before you add the egg mixture as it won’t get crispy with the egg mixture on top of it.

Egg in a hole, is one of my favorite breakfast foods that you don’t see that often. If you break the yolk it is the ultimate to go food as the egg is secured in the bread. If you don’t break the yolk, the bread around egg soaks up the yolk when it is broken at the table. It is the ultimate breakfast food.

Nothing beats an egg in a hole, except for egg in a hole with cheese.
It is perfect finger food and you don’t have to worry about the egg and the cheese falling all over the place like a fast food breakfast sandwich.

Whenever I have a ton of left overs and I want to clear out the fridge I try to find something new and exciting to try. I love eggs and they go with almost any flavor. You can make them sweet in desserts or savory in a quiche. So I wanted to use eggs and the asparagus, tomatoes, and onions that I had left over from this last weekends barbecue. The only thing that came to mind was a frittata.

Layered with onions, asparagus and tomatoes this was a great dish.
It is amazing how great of a dish you can make just using simple ingredients.
