Dip or salad? Part I

You may recall that 34 eggs were used in the process of making Julie’s birthday feast. Fifteen were deviled – many of the rest made their way into this bucket. But was it a dip or a salad? We don’t know. All I know is that I’ve never before had a “salad” that tasted like a Big Mac.

Dip or salad? Part II

The lettuce acts as sneaky camouflage. Also involved: bacon, mayonnaise, sugar. This blog is not intended to be a gross-out blog. I leave that to sites like this. But sometimes eggs get put in things and I eat them and I have to share it. Thank you, Glen. I think.

Teaser eggs

Just to give you a taste of what’s been going on these past few days:




Fifteen deviled eggs makes 30 halves. Another 19 eggs were used in the course of Julie’s birthday feast.

Polenta Egg

Never had this before: grilled polenta with a kind of ratatouille and steamed broccoli.


I love the way the broccoli looks.



And the rest of it. Mmm!



Yep, it’s an egg.


A kind of a coy egg. But at least it’s not weird.


Apologies for the delays in posting recently. I have some more lined up for the moment, but do please continue to send any of your eggs in.

Weird Eggs

This is some rice and leftover veg, elevated into a dinner by the addition of some fried eggs.

Already they look a bit freaky in the pan:



This one cabbage fed us for 3 meals: [Fact]


The eggs look like they are crying:



These are some weird eggs if you start looking too closely. Anyway, they were pretty good. But weird. Elephant Man eggs.

They demonstrate fine technique with their olive oil drizzle:


Though they break with tradition in adding tomatoes after the egg:



Yet mavericks that they are, they don’t fail to add a lovely close-up:


Check out those excellent plates. Thank you Scott & Lucy!
