Here's a happy collection: A few slices of leftover no-knead homemade bread; some fresh eggs from a friend's backyard chickens; butter I made several months ago, from local raw cream, and that had been hiding in a corner of the freezer. Quite naturally on a Sunday morning, my thoughts turned to toad-in-a-hole. Making it is simple. Use a biscuit or cookie cutter to make a hole in the middle of a piece of bread. Melt butter in a frying pan. Add eggs, cook, flip, cook some more. The best part is the little rim where the eggs meet the bread. And in my neck of the woods we eat this homemade salsa.

ReplyDeleteTrue!
ReplyDeleteNow I might have to try that, it sounds very interesting and the addition of salsa would really make it tasty.
ReplyDeleteI had quite forgotten how much fun these are. Haven't tried them in years, sounds like breakfast tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteD loves those! But his Mom called them peek-a-boo eggs. Haven't made them in years. And never with all the yummy homemade ingredients you used. We're coming for breakfast tomorrow!!
ReplyDeleteIt's so fun to see someone else make Toad in the holes! Yours look yummy.
ReplyDeleteThanks Marti!
