Want to talk about food? Specifically, brunch.
I'm starting to plan Abe's birthday menu and we are having brunch.
I have a nice french toast dish that I like. And I'm going to have baked apples with cranberries to go with it. I figure I need an egg dish. I've made a breakfast casserole but it is pretty heavy so I'm looking for something a bit different. Ideas? A crustless quiche?
Re: Want to talk about food? Specifically, brunch.
Do you really need a full dish if you're already having french toast? If there will be other little kids at the brunch, you could make these:

kids and grown-ups like them, they're easy, and freezable if you have leftovers. And they cover the egg version of breakfast.
Maybe you're right. If I'm already having a big dish, a side dish of apples. Plus we will have fruit of some sort. Coffee, juice and cake and ice cream.
We're only having about 15 people.
We make a really good (light) herb and goat cheese frittata at work...you could do muffin cups for easier serving...sometimes, for individual ones, we'll do pancetta cups with the eggs baked inside, for an easy single-serving.
You probably do have plenty of food already, but I love me some brunch, so I have a hard time knowing when to stop
Ooh the herb and goat cheese frittata sounds delicious!
A friend of mine recently served individual polenta cups with egg-- freaking amazing and super easy. Quick cook polenta (takes 3 mins I think) and then put the polenta in individual ramekins with a divot/depression in the middle. Drop an egg in there and bake in the oven.
I agree with this. Plus, it's a nice little dose of protein. I'd make a frittatta b/c it's easy and durable so it can withstand a buffet.
No matter what you do, I'm sure it will be great!
