Few snacks are as satisfying and versatile as Scotch eggs. A delightful combination of a perfectly boiled egg encased in savory sausage, coated in crispy breadcrumbs, and air-fried (or baked) to golden perfection, these treats are a must-try for any food lover. Whether you're looking for a tasty picnic staple, a pub-style indulgence, or an exciting twist on breakfast, Scotch eggs are unique and delicious

If you’ve never had Heavenly Hots Pancakes, you’re in for a treat! These light, airy pancakes practically melt in your mouth, and the secret ingredient? Greek yogurt (which I sub in for the traditional sour cream for a more high protein version). Unlike traditional pancakes, which can sometimes feel heavy, these beauties are delicate, slightly tangy, and absolutely delicious.
Shakshuka is a dish that has its roots deep in North African and Middle Eastern cuisine, and it’s a meal that has been cherished for generations. With its vibrant colors, rich flavors, and simple ingredients, shakshuka has recently found its way to breakfast tables and brunch spots around the world. If you haven’t yet tried this savory delight, you’re in for a treat.
What's for breakfast? How about protein loaded, deliciously flavorful egg bites that are better, healthier & far less expensive than the coffee shop versions. They also pack and reheat well if you're not able to have breakfast in the comfort of your own cozy kitchen.
This coffee cake is a perfect old school recipe with a unique berry twist. Amazingly moist cake, crumbly buttery topping and a hint of sweet, tart raspberry preserve swirled throughout with a crowning of fresh raspberries on top.
I love this twist on a traditional crêpe, using oat flour which gives a nice homey texture and spirulina which provides a beautiful umami flavor that is slightly salty, slightly briny and lends a gorgeous emerald hue. This reminds me so much of Ireland and it's emerald green pastures that go on as far as the eye can see, butting right up the the ocean.
I fill these crepes with good Irish cheddar cheese that gets nice and melty and while you could compliment the cheese by adding small cubes of salty ham, I opted for bit of chicken sausage and some tender baby spinach leaves just to be consistent with the green theme.
Scones have been one of my favorites ever since Tim and I went to Ireland where scones abound everywhere and I ate at least one per day. Delicious! While the Irish scones were very basic, the butter or cream they used gave them a fabulous texture, and to have a scone with my morning cup of tea was a pure pleasure on the Emerald Isle.
I think we can all agree that oats are good for you. We need those hearty whole grains in our diet and these overnight oats with the beautiful toasted dark sesame seeds, plump pops of chia seeds, kick of espresso and sweet bits of currants, or your dried fruit of choice, make this a fabulous start to the day. What a way to break the fast.
How about caramelized vegetables, savory sausages and crispy tots all brought together in a one dish wonder Sausage, Pepper and Tot Bake. This dish is perfect for weeknights as you can assemble it in about 10 minutes, bake for 30 minutes and serve to your hungry crowd.
How about a Parmesan crusted tortilla that snuggles inside of it a fluffy golden omelette with everything bagel seasoning and a hint of bright, herby parsley? It's the perfect quick breakfast and can even be a handheld if you don't mind getting your fingers just a little bit messy.
I've had a love affair with matcha since it came on the scene. I've always loved green tea, so my first experience with a matcha latte had me hooked and wanting to try all things matcha.

Do you love warm, flaky biscuits right out of the oven? The carb lover in me sure does. As much as I would like to say "no thank you, I'll pass on the bread", the card carrying no carb left behind me says, "yes please pass those flaky buttery pillows of goodness."
Everybody loves a special butter when you go out to a nice restaurant. Some places serve a cinnamon honey butter with sweet potatoes and we're all in love with savory herb butter with lucious warm rolls.
Well I'm here to tell you that you can have that all at home and it really takes next to no time to make. You can even get the kids involved in the process as this can be done in a stand mixer, with an electric mixer, or in a large mason jar that the kids can pass around and shake, shake, shake until the magic of butter happens.
Twice baked potatoes are a wonderful thing. I enjoy making them for company using a smaller potato, like a medium sized red new potato, to make them appear so special and celebratory. Everyone loves them and they go fast. I mean FAST!
Pancakes are my happy food. If I'm in a quandary about what to have for dinner and groceries are running low, my go to is usually some form of breakfast food and especially pancakes. I love all kinds of pancakes. Check out my Grandma Rice's Buckwheat Pancakes with Cherry Compote. Those are a taste of my childhood.
I love a frittata. If you’re not familiar, think beautiful, glorified omelette using any leftovers, or veg you may have on hand. Have a few leftover cooked new baby potatoes from last night’s dinner. Put it into your frittata. Have a handful of baby spinach or half a jar of roasted red peppers? Add it to your frittata. A couple kinds of cheese with only a 1/4 cup left of each? Add it to your frittata. Some olives, asparagus, a bit of chicken sausage. Just about anything goes.
The result is a mouth watering, beautiful veggie jewel studded frittata that is typically cooked in a skillet then finished briefly in the oven. This version is cooked in a slow cooker, available on our shop page, so you can set it and forget it. With a dozen eggs and lots of vegetables, this took almost 2 hours in my slow cooker set on high. That was 2 hours I could go about my business and work on other things, coming back to a delightful light dinner with no oven, stove or grill involved.
Next to eggs Benedict, I think this dish is my favorite brunch. Making these delightful ramekins is far easier than eggs benny, so perhaps that does move it to the top of my brunch list with these creamy, soft centers. Yum ❤️
A Dutch Baby Pancake is such a simple, inexpensive and impressive breakfast, brunch or breakfast for dinner idea. It puffs up so incredibly high as it bakes. Absolutely gorgeous.
Everyone loves decadent sticky buns and this version with bright orange and a melting mascarpone (Italian cream cheese) middle are my absolute favorite sticky buns.
