Beans and Eggs One-Skillet Recipe

by

Try a delicious one-skillet breakfast recipe for beans and eggs. This egg recipe is easily adjustable for any family meal; just add as many eggs to the recipe as you have folks to feed! I like to spice up this bean dish with hot pepper and lots of seasoning, because beans and tomato can handle a lot of added flavor.

Ingredients for Beans and Eggs

4 EGGS …add more eggs for more mouths!
15oz can BEANS …white beans are my favorite
15oz can diced TOMATOES
1 finely chopped ONION
2 cloves minced GARLIC
fresh chopped HOT PEPPER
or try La Costena Chipotle like I use in the video recipe
a little OIL for cooking
seasonings like:
½ tsp SALT
½ tsp BLACK PEPPER
1 tsp PAPRIKA
1 tsp GARLIC POWDER
…adjust seasonings to taste

Optional: fresh herbs or chopped green onion for garnish

How to Make One-Skillet Beans and Eggs

  • Heat about 1 Tbsp of oil in a skillet on medium heat.
  • When the skillet is hot, add chopped onion and saute for 2 minutes.
  • Add garlic and hot pepper and seasoning and continue cooking for 2 minutes more. I use La Costena Chipotle pepper in the recipe video. Check the current price for this Chipotle on Amazon.
  • Add canned beans and tomato and a little water. Stir, and bring the skillet up to a simmer, then cover and let simmer for about 10 minutes.
  • Uncover and stir until liquid reduces to saucey, but not too wet.
  • Crack eggs into the skillet, leaving space between them.
  • Cover and let cook 4-6 minutes more until the eggs are done to your liking…cook for a bit more than this if you like the yolks hard.
  • Turn off the heat, and serve the eggs and beans immediately. Garnish with fresh green herbs or green onion for a picture perfect meal.

Egg in a Basket Recipe for Brunch

by

This Egg in a Basket Recipe is a fun way of serving up eggs and toast, and if you use fancy bread and colorful breakfast sides, you can even pass eggs in a basket off as an upscale brunch dish. I like to cook my egg toast with a lot of butter, because this makes the bread rich and crispy like a crouton.

What You Need for this Egg Recipe

1 large EGG
1 slice BREAD
1-2 Tbsp BUTTER

Egg in a basket is a super simple breakfast dish to prepare, and a fun way to cook up breakfast for kids. But if you jazz the egg recipe up a bit, it can easily transform into a fancy brunch meal for anytime of the day.

How to Make an Egg in a Basket

  • Use a nice bread. In the video, I use a Thyme and Olive loaf. It’s super tasty all on it’s own, so it’s naturally going to elevate a simple egg in a basket dish.
  • I like to buy a whole bread loaf and slice it myself. A nice rustic cut of bread makes a dish fancier.
  • Cut your bread slices about ½ an inch thick, and don’t cut the egg hole in the bread TOO BIG. You want the egg to fill the hole, and not stretch out too thin. And you want enough bread surface around the hole to toast up.
  • Heat a skillet on low-medium heat. Add butter and melt.
  • Add in the bread slice and coat butter on one side, then turn the slice and butter up the other side. Let the bread grill for a minute or so until it begins to brown, then flip and let the other side grill.
  • Break an egg into the hole in the toast. Let the egg cook long enough to set, then flip the toast and let the egg cook on the other side.
  • Once the egg is cooked to your desire, remove the egg bread from the skillet and serve hot.

A good skillet is essential for this kind of egg dish. You can check current prices for a shiny new Non-Stick Skillet on Amazon.

This is a cool recipe to serve over a salad, or anything you like, especially if you’re like me and enjoy over-easy style eggs. A runny yolk makes a great sauce! Also garnish your egg bread with cilantro, parsley, or your favorite fresh herbs, and this simple childhood dish will instantly become a fancy treat.

Do you have a favorite salad dressing or sauce? Drizzle a bit over egg in a basket, because that’s what they’d do in a hipster restaurant, and then charge you $20 for “Eggs al Basquet”.

Must Try Egg Bread Bake Recipe

by
egg bread

Egg bread is a fancy dish for breakfast or brunch, and it’s an easy recipe to prepare. The recipe is a cross between baked eggs, bread pudding, and stove top stuffing. It’s a great way to use up old and stale bread. I go light on the cheese in this egg bread recipe, but adding more cheese and making a cheese bread is super tasty. One thing you don’t want to do is go light on the seasoning, especially if you’re using a plain loaf of bread; the more seasoning the better–especially rosemary!

What You Need for an Egg Bread Bake

crusty BREAD cubed
6 EGGS
about 1 cup MILK
2 GREEN ONION chopped
HOT PEPPER finely chopped
shredded CHEESE
1-2 Tbsp dried ROSEMARY
1 tsp dried OREGANO
PAPRIKA
BLACK PEPPER
GARLIC POWDER
CHILI POWDER (optional)
BUTTER/OIL to grease the baking dish

How to Make Baked Egg Bread

Any bread will do, but ideally use a hard and crusty loaf. If you’ve got a loaf of bread you’re thinking is to stale to eat, then this is a perfect recipe to save it.

  • Slice the bread into cubes and place in a large mixing bowl. I like using larger cube sizes for a rustic looking dish.
  • In a bowl, whisk 2 eggs and milk.
  • Add the egg/milk mixture in with the bread and toss, coating the bread.
  • Add in the herbs and spices, onion, hot pepper, and cheese and toss until the bread is well coated.
  • Lightly grease an oven safe baking dish and add the bread mix, spreading out evenly. Check current prices on a Pyrex Baking Dish on Amazon.
  • With a spoon, make an impression on the top of the bread mix for each egg serving.
  • Crack an egg into each depression.
  • Slide into a preheated oven and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-40 minutes, until the eggs are baked to desired doneness.
  • Slice into servings and serve hot or cold.
