Eggs Saturday Style
It's nice to sleep in and make a big breakfast once in a while. This isn't the healthiest, but it can be tweaked in many ways, such as roasting the potatoes or boiling the eggs. You can use leftover potatoes or ham if you have it, substitute bacon or sausage for the ham, use any kind of cheese, or omit the meat altogether (just increase the butter/oil).

Dressed Eggs Dressed Eggs
In Alabama, they call these dressed eggs. Most know them as deviled eggs. Sometimes, I put some bacon bits on the top. What makes these a bit different is the use of Albama BBQ sauce. Some people like these with relish as well, but I didn't have any on hand.

Eggs in a Basket Eggs in a Basket
This is a fun way to serve fried eggs and toast. Kids LOVE it, especially when you get creative and use cookie cutters with shapes. With Halloween right around the corner, I've made mine for sharing today using my bat and ghost cookie cutters.This is one of those recipes that I don't include any specific quantities for the ingredients. You'll want to make 1-2 baskets per person, and just need one egg for every one piece of bread and enough butter for coating your pan before adding each new bread slice. It's best to cook these one at a time unless you have a very wide skillet or griddle, which I do not. Lol.The only thing you always have to be sure of is that your crusts stay intact. As long as you stay in the crusts you can cut any shape you want into your bread.

Saturday Frittata Saturday Frittata
This is an improvised frittata based on a recipe from How to Cook Everthing by Mark Bittman. We were out of fresh vegetables, so just had to use what was in the cupboard, which is one reason there are no precise measures listed in the recipe. To spruce it up you could add pico de gallo, salsa, or cooked frozen spinach or other veggies you like.
