When Eggs Are on The Menu

Good Morning Porch Pals!

The wind is howling this morning and it's causing me to feel like a cat with its hair standing up on end! If I were a cat my tail would be sticking straight up!

I wish that I was visiting the White Horse Inn in Galveston, Texas, where this recipe originates from. Have you ever stayed in a B&B? It's really a treat to walk into breakfast and have a happy host serving savory hot food. The recipes are made with great care. Normally the tables are set with eye-catching place settings and centerpieces. Most often, the proprietors do not hand out their secret recipes, but some have made it into popular cookbooks series based on recipes from such inns.


Baked Deviled Eggs

Ingredients:
6 eggs, hard-boiled
1/2 c. mayonnaise
1/2 tsp. prepared mustard
4 English muffins, split
8 slices Canadian-style bacon
1/2 c. Cheddar cheese, grated

also, freshly ground black pepper

In a bowl, chop the eggs with a pastry cutter.
Combine eggs, mayonnaise, and mustard and blend well.
Top each muffin half with a slice of bacon, then 1/4 c. egg mixture. Sprinkle cheese on top.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 6-8 minutes. Before serving, sprinkle with pepper.

Quick, easy and so yummy!

Perhaps this recipe will make it into my friend's recipe exchange. This dish is delicious when served with fresh fruit and breakfast potatoes or cheese grits.


Have you ever noticed what happens when eggs are on the menu? Somehow everyone feels like eating. Breakfast for dinner is comforting. That's why some restaurants keep eggs on the menu all day. Eggs make us want a cup of coffee and some small talk. We think of Smucker's Strawberry Jam and a hot biscuit.

Squeeze around the table,  y'all.
