poached eggs and...
I used to really enjoy poached eggs over toast. Runny eggs just aren't the same without something to absorb the good stuff. I also enjoy mushrooms quite a bit. The wholesale store I shop at carries portabella mushrooms for a reasonable price. So the old quote of "the mother of invention is necessity" has provided a new breakfast regular for me.
1 med/lg portabella mushroom 2 eggs 3-4 slices Canadian Bacon cheese of your choice Remove the stem and gills of the mushroom & sprinkle with salt. Bake the mushroom 15-20 min. at 350. While the mushroom is baking, poach your eggs (shallow pan of water, bring to a boil, add whole eggs, reduce heat, cover until desired doneness), and heat slices of bacon. When mushroom is done, absorb as much water as you can with a paper towel, by "pushing" on the shroom. Layer the Canadian Bacon and cheese in the shroom and heat in oven until melted. Place eggs on top and S & P. ENJOY! The nutritional analysis for the Portabella Mushroom (according to the Director Product Development & QA from the company that provided the wholesaler the mushrooms in "99) 85g = Fat: 0 Carbs: 4g Fiber: 3g Sugar: 1g Prot: 3g plus 4 % (USDA?) calcium and 2 % Iron |

Oh, yum!
Two of my favorite things--eggs and mushrooms! I am a sucker for soft boiled eggs and I do miss having something to dip into the yolk.

My Poached Eggs
I save this for special occasions, But not it has become a great treat for me
Shrimp Poached eggs Get out the poacher and drop 1 spoonful of butter in the bottom of each thing, pop it in the oven for a minute to melt, Take it out and add 1 spoonful of salad shrimp, either frozen or canned, very inexpensive, Drop an egg on top and bake for 30-40 minutes, add butter to the top, when done turn them over on a plate and garnish with a little butter, looks great and tastes great too |
Great IDEA!
This reminds me of a family get-together favorite called Shrimp Aster. Basically poached eggs w/salad shrimp/hollandaise/little fresh dill. Ymmmmmmmmmm, can't wait for breakfast tomorrow! Good Day, KT |
