Double Niçoise

Last night’s dinner:


Because I didn’t have enough eggs this weekend...

Pizza Egg? Try Harder!

Can you believe I got served this in Italy? What am I, a stupid gringo tourist? Did you just sweep the floor and chuck it on my pizza? Do you know I’m an egg blogger?!?

Some sort of stir-fry...

I’m discovering all kinds of eggs on my phone that I haven’t had time to post. No idea what these were, but the yolks look awesome.


Yeah!

Friendly Caullieggegg!

Hello! Here is an egg from the past. Because really, how many eggs can I eat all the time? Many, is the answer. An uncountable many. And yet still sometimes I forget to photograph them, or maybe I remember, but then my camera has no more battery life, or maybe I am eating yet another fried egg on yet another pizza. (That is a lie – every time I eat an egg on a pizza I post it.)

Here is a purely gratuitous egg; the dish was exciting enough without it. But how much more exciting with! And so, friends, here is a cauliflower pasta egg:

Friends, this is what we call a soffritto:


Here are the tomatoes:



OMG! What has he done?!



Yes, a whole cauliflower! I cook it in the sauce! Then I break it in pieces and put it on the pasta:



And then, of course, the egg.



Stay tuned for parsley! And a different plate!

Couscous à gogo!

Alas, the process shots are all out of focus, so just try to imagine what layering this up was like (fun is what!):




This poor egg looks so weird. Like a sad volcano.

Topical Egg? Eggtopic!

No, it’s not the Olympics. Although if someone wants to put an egg on the Olympics and send the pictures to me, that would be amazing. It’s a pancake egg!* Why didn’t we think of this sooner?



I didn’t realize that there’d be eggs on it until the last second, so it’s a bit rushed. Though I’m a fool. Why would there not be eggs on this?



Here is the obligatory funny-second-angle shot:



It looks like some sort of sea creature. Like a sting ray. Sting ray egg!



*For non-UK readers, yesterday was pancake day (ie, Shrove Tuesday or Mardi Gras). In the US, you never need an excuse to eat breakfast for dinner. Though to be fair, you don’t really need one here, either.

Bubbly, Squeaky Eggs

Eating out, as we’ve seen before, doesn’t mean you have to go without your eggs. I didn’t actually eat this all day breakfast bubble and squeak with bacon and fried egg(s), though I certainly was envious when it arrived presented like this:




Which leads me to another point (viz, the bit above, where I wasn’t sure whether or not to make “egg” plural). People reading this might (understandably) think I’m some sort of egg nut. Sure, I like eggs. I also like loads of other things. Maybe one day this blog will become “Put A Pasta On It!” and I will do things like the Spaghetti Sandwich and Hummus Pasta.* Anyway, the point is, I don’t know whether this is one egg with two yolks or two eggs forced to share a single, glorious whiteness. Nor do I care. Take another look:



It looks like a crab! A delicious, crabby, eggy, breakfasty dinner. So good!






*No, fear not, those are disgusting, and I will never do that.

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.

Pheasant Egg? Egg Pheasant!

Fresh shot pheasant.


Then Sam went and put an egg on it.



I have the best friends in all the world.




Special thanks to Charli for providing the fresh farm egg (and pheasant) and everyone else for waiting so long to eat dinner.

More noodles

Yeah, I make a lot of noodles. It's quick and easy and feels healthy. And a treat to put an egg on.

NB: Don't forget to send me your eggs!

Lazy Dinner ...

Proving, once again, that a meal is infinitely better with the addition of an egg. Or two.

[PS: If you saw this on UNTIMELY, my apologies. I'm a fool!]

Another classic.

I love this one so much. Even though I made such a crappy pizza—I forgot loads of ingredients—it was still good, and the egg was delicious.
PS – This is just about the quickest turnaround ever. I ate this last night.

Ploughman’s?

I don’t even know anymore.

It looks kind of crazy with a flash.

Ahh, back to normal!

Lentil Egg? Egg Lentil?

Lentils.
Egg lentils!
Yeah, it’s the same dish, but slightly different angle. I love it.
