Did you know that March is National Nutrition Month? It makes it a
great time to reevaluate the foods you feed your family, so you can feel confident you are feeding your family nutritious foods to help them grow.
Did you know that all eggs are not created equal? When compared to ordinary eggs, Eggland’s Best eggs contain:
· 10 times more vitamin E
· Double the amount of omega-3’s
· Twice the amount of vitamin D
· 3 times more vitamin B12
· 25% less saturated fat
· 38% more lutein
Courtesy of Eggland's Best, I had the opportunity to plan a little brunch. I decided that to make it 'eggs-tra' 'eggs-cellent' I would make most of my dishes themed around the egg. I also wanted dishes that I could make ahead and have ready to assemble and serve - who wants to be busy in the kitchen when your guests are arriving and hanging out - not me!
Egg, Ham and Cheese Sandwiches
Deviled Eggs
Open Face Egg Salad Sandwich
Crustless Quiche
Hard Boiled Eggs (colored, of course!)
Cucumber Salad
Beer Bread
Fruit Salad
Egg Cut Out Cookies
I got creative with building my cookie plate and added a flower cookie on top of the eggs, to make it look like a flower with multi-color petals. I love the effect!
If you are looking for more inspiration in planning a brunch (or breakfast, lunch or dinner for that matter), there are several great egg recipes at Eggland's Best Website - like the Breakfast Burrito and the Sunny Side Breakfast Pizza.
