Tonight, we had breakfast for dinner. This is always a big hit at our house. It probably has something to do with the fact that I never cook in the mornings. Tonight, we had two recipes I found on Pinterest. We had Mini Frittatas and Baked French Toast. I have included the recipes and pictures of our food below. A word about the pictures - These are real pictures of our real food. These aren't the air brushed, wax coated food pictures of magazines.
Mini Frittatas
- Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 cup skim milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Assorted mix-ins (such as shredded cheese,diced vegetables, and cooked and chopped bacon, ham, or sausage)
- Grated cheese
- Instructions
-
Heat your oven to 350º F and coat a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
-
Whisk together the eggs, skim milk, and salt
in a medium bowl, then evenly distribute the egg mixture among the
muffin cups.
-
Add about 2 tablespoons of mix-ins to each cup, then sprinkle on a bit of Parmesan cheese, if you like.
-
Bake the frittatas until they are puffy and the
edges are golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes. (If necessary, run a
butter knife around the edge of each one to loosen them before removing
them from the pan.) Makes 12 mini frittatas.

My husband's breakfast for dinner
Baked French Toast
Ingredients:
- 1 loaf sourdough or french bread *I had a package of whole wheat hamburger buns that were getting old so I used them instead. They were wonderful!
- 8 eggs
- 2 cups milk (I used 2%)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1tsp. cinnamon
- 1tsp. nutmeg
Topping:
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1 stick cold butter, cut into pieces
1. Grease a 9x13 pan with butter. Tear bread into bite-size chunks and place evenly in the pan.
2. Mix together the eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour evenly over bread. Cover tightly and store in the fridge for several hours (I put mine in overnight....it was about 12 hours).
3. In a medium bowl mix together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender until it all looks nice and crumbly. Place in a ziploc bag and put in fridge.
4. When ready to bake, take pan and bag out of fridge. Remove wrap and cover with aluminum foil. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and evenly sprinkle the crumb mixture over the top. Bake for an additional 20 minutes at 350 degrees. I like mine to be soft and creamy. If you prefer it to be more done, then cook for 40 minutes before adding topping.
