NIF'S EGG IN A CUP



Nif's Egg in a Cup image

I can't begin to count how many times I had this as a child and served it to my kids! It's easy and very tasty and we still enjoy it. This was our 'fancy' name (ha ha) for it but you may have your own version. In response to a recipe review, I always use large eggs, so the boiling time may be less for smaller eggs. 3 minutes should still be the minimum amount of time though. Enjoy!

Categories     Breakfast

Time 9m

Yield 2 eggs, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 eggs
2 slices whole grain bread (or whatever kind you like)
butter, to taste
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • With a spoon, gently place the eggs in boiling water. Boil for 4 minutes and place eggs in egg cups. Immediately crack top of egg off with a knife, salt and pepper to taste. If you let the eggs sit, they will continue to cook.
  • While eggs are boiling, toast the bread and spread with butter. Cut toast into strips - I try for 5. Dip the toast strips into the runny yolk - YUM!
  • After the yolk is gone, you can scoop out the white with a spoon and eat that as well.

NIF'S BREAKFAST TO GO (SANDWICH) OAMC



Nif's Breakfast to Go (Sandwich) OAMC image

I wanted to come up with something for my boys to grab for breakfast when they are rushing to get to the school bus. These turned out really well and froze perfectly. The best part? My kids like them! The instructions are incredibly easy - the first step is long because I give options on how to cook the eggs. Enjoy!

Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Yield 12 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 4

12 eggs
12 English muffins
12 slices bacon, precooked and cut in half
12 cheese slices (I sliced low fat old cheddar quite thin)

Steps:

  • There are a few different ways that you can cook the eggs. I pierced each yolk, gently stirred each of them and used a plastic egg cooker in the microwave. OR you can lightly scramble each egg in a cup sprayed with cooking spray. OR you can lightly scramble each egg in a silicon muffin tin and bake them. OR you can lightly scramble each egg and cook in a tiny frying pan (I've seen them!). It's up to you how to cook them! You basically want them to end up being cooked through and slightly smaller than the size of the English muffin.
  • While eggs are cooking, open each English muffin and lay them out.
  • When the eggs are done, place each egg on the bottom half of the muffin.
  • Add bacon to each muffin and top with cheese.
  • Wrap each breakfast sandwich in plastic wrap. I placed the sandwiches in a large resealable bag and put them in the freezer.
  • When cooking, placed wrapped sandwich in the microwave. Microwave on high for 30 to 45 seconds. Unwrap, turn over and cook on high for another 30 to 45 seconds.
  • The cooking time varies on how frozen the sandwich is (fridge freezer or deep freezer) and the microwave.

NIF'S DILLED QUAIL EGGS



Nif's Dilled Quail Eggs image

Before you say "EWWW! Quail eggs!!!", you really have to try these. They are a lot like chicken eggs, but smaller (obviously!) and a little smoother tasting. My grocery store carries them but if you can't find them, check out an Asian market. I don't put a lot of seasoning into the deviled mixture because these little guys don't want to be overpowered. They present beautifully on a nest of persley or dill and taste very good. Enjoy!

Provided by Nif_H

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 25m

Yield 36 half eggs

Number Of Ingredients 5

18 quail eggs
1/4 cup mayonnaise (I use half fat Helllmann's)
1 teaspoon fresh dill
salt and pepper
fresh dill (to garnish, optional) (optional) or chives (to garnish) (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat water to boiling, gently set eggs into water. Boil 5-6 minutes and then rinse under cold water. Do NOT use a rolling boil or the eggs will break. If your eggs do break, keep their yolks anyway.
  • Let cool completely. Peel eggs and cut in half lengthwise. Pop yolks out into a small bowl.
  • To yolks, add mayo and dill. Mix very well, then salt and pepper to taste.
  • Put yolk mixture into a plastic sandwich bag. Pipe mixture into each egg half.
  • Garnish with fresh dill or chives.

NIF'S PERFECT POACHED EGG



Nif's Perfect Poached Egg image

Oh, the poached egg! There is nothing better than having a poached egg on toast or over a bed of spinach... mmmmm...... Enjoy!

Provided by Nif_H

Categories     Breakfast

Time 10m

Yield 2 eggs, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 eggs (organic or free-run is best because the colour of the yolk is beautiful)
water
1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • In a frying pan, heat enough water to cover the egg(s) to a low boil. Add salt.
  • Crack an egg into a small bowl. Quickly dip bowl into the water. Slide the raw egg into the water. Immediately slide the other egg into the water in the same fashion.
  • TURN OFF HEAT but leave on burner! Cover pan with lid - DO NOT UNCOVER and let sit for 4 to 6 minutes. You can uncover to check them, starting at 4 minutes. You'll know they're done if the white is not really jiggly.
  • Using a slotted spoon, gently place eggs on a tea towel. If you use scented detergents or fabric softeners on your towels, do not use them. Instead, slide egg(s) onto good quality paper towels, so the towel doesn't fall apart. Let sit for a few seconds to drain the water.
  • Place eggs on to toast, a slice of tomato, steamed spinach and/or a piece of low fat cheese.

NIF'S PORK CUTLETS



Nif's Pork Cutlets image

A pretty basic recipe that the kids still love. You can dress it up with some sauce, more herbs or maybe some sauteed onions? Serve with potatoes, rice, pasta and some veggies. Enjoy!

Provided by Nif_H

Categories     Pork

Time 20m

Yield 4 pork loin chops, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 (4 ounce) boneless pork loin chops
1/2 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper
4 egg whites
1 cup breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons seasoning salt
2 teaspoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Pound pork chops with a mallet, until about 1/4 inch thick. I put them in a resealable bag so it doesn't make a mess. Heat oil over medium heat in a large nonstick frying pan.
  • Mix the flour with the garlic powder, salt and pepper; put in a flat dish. Pour egg whites in another flat dish. Mix breadcrumbs with the seasoning salt in another flat dish. Dip both sides of a pork chop in the flour, then the egg whites and lastly in the breadcrumbs. Turn to coat evenly. Repeat with other 3 chops.
  • Cook chops in frying pan for approximately 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until nicely browned and cooked through.
