Dinner...er..Breakfast With This Week's Deals
I'm not gonna lie...it's been a crazy hectic week for us. When things are hectic, I like to find the easiest dinner options, and often that means breakfast for dinner. My girls love eggs. My husband hates eggs. My husband is working. We had eggs. =)
Now I'm not going to tell you a recipe of how to make an egg. It's an egg! I'm going to tell you about a trick I learned from my grandmother *years* ago. Actually I had forgotten all about her doing this until just recently when my oldest daughter asked me what my favorite thing to eat was when I was a little girl. I got to thinking and somehow this came to the surface. I made it one time, and now this is the only way they want to eat eggs.
It's the simplest thing ever! She just called it egg on bread, because, well that is exactly what it is.
Step one: Fry an egg (leave the yolk runny).
Step two: Place the egg on top of a slice of bread (not toast, just bread).
Salt and pepper if you like (I do!).
Then, you slice it all up and mix it together. When the yolk soaks into the bread it turns into ooey gooey deliciousness. =)
I'm not going to attempt a cost breakdown for this "recipe" because prices for bread and eggs vary largely from place to place and from brand to brand. This is a very easy and inexpensive meal, though and even factoring in the strawberries, I know it cost me under $2.
What is your favorite way to eat eggs?

We love eggs any way you fix them (except when the white is runny... Yuck!)But probably my favorite is eggs in a nest.
You fry bacon just slightly then line a muffin tin with it. Curling a piece around the side and putting a little piece in the bottom, then you put freshly grated & dried potatoes on top pressing it against the sides to leave a hole, like a nest in the middle. Bake at 325 until the hash browns reach your desired crispiness.
If you don't need 12 eggs, you can put biscuits in the remaining cups, but since the hash browns take about 30 minutes to get as crisp as I like them, I wait about 20 minutes before adding them.
Remove the tin from the oven just long enough to crack an egg into each nest. Then continue to bake for just 3 or 4 minutes. Checking the eggs until they are done to your liking. Run a knife around the edges to loosen and lift your egg in a nest. Awesome!
That sounds delicious=)

We do breakfast for dinner quite often, especially when it is too hot in South Florida to eat a hot meal.
Oh i understand that for sure! It's been soooo hot here in Dallas. there have been 2 days that weren't triple digits since july 1! and still triple digits 10 days out on the forecast. I'm really for fall!
I have to say my favorite is scrambled, due to the ease and quickness of the meal. How can you go wrong? Sometimes I enjoy cutting a small hole in the center of bread, putting it in the pan, and cracking an egg inside of the hole. It's a nice variation on breakfast.
