Brunch is without a doubt one of my favorite parts of the weekend. I'm all about a big leisurely meal that basically allows you to eat breakfast food for lunch and drink orange juice spiked with a bit of champagne. We don't actually go out for brunch on the weekends that often, but rather we try to make it at home. These Mexican eggs benedict...

Surprisingly, one of the things we miss most about Texas is breakfast tacos. Amazingly enough, nobody seems to serve them out here. Apparently they are a Texas phenomenon. These breakfast tacos definitely aren't the kind you'd get late night at Taco C or Dustin's personal favorite place, Taco Palenque—no chorizo and egg or bean and cheese here....

As promised— more uses for leftover bechamel suace! Aren't we resourceful?! Now may I present to you, the beautiful croque madame! The croque monsieur will forever remind us of our trip to Paris where we got these delicious grilled ham and gruyere sandwiches covered with bechamel sauce from a little corner shop and devoured them in front of...

Apparently these avocado egg boats were all the rage on Pinterest recently according to my different food blogs, but I'm not sure where the original idea came from. It's really a very simple idea. All you do is heat the oven to 375°, cut an avocado in half, remove the pit and then use it as a ramekin to bake an egg for about 15 minutes. We...

I don't know how I've never thought of this before— combining the amazingingness of cheesy enchiladas with breakfast favorites like chorizo and eggs, and you have one heck of a brunch. These are like baked breakfast tacos, and they are brilliant. They are as simple as cooking up your favorite breakfast foods, wrapping them in flour tortillas,...

Passover is long gone, but we still had matzo (matzah?) leftover, which I know for Dustin means just one thing— fried matzo or matzo brei as I've been seeing it called on the Internet. Matzo soaked in water or milk, then cooked in the frying pan with eggs is a great base for some delicious breakfasts— both sweet and savory. We made both kinds—...

Best way to use leftover corned beef from our Reuben sandwiches (beside more Reuben sandwiches for lunch)? Make an easy one skillet corned beef hash for brunch. Oh yeah, and top with an egg, sunny side up. It was super easy and super delicious, so we just thought we'd share!

Dustin and I have gotten hooked watching Worst Cooks in America from the Food Network on demand. We started watching it out of curiosity, but it has actually really grown on us. If you haven't seen the show, two celebrity chefs (in the third season the chefs are Anne Burrell and Dustin's favorite, Bobby Flay) have a team of home cooks who have...

We found another great use for cheddar grits— as brunch topped with fried eggs. The runny yolk spreading over the cheese grits is pretty amazing and yet it is so simple. We'll definitely make this again another lazy morning. We served this alongside a mimosa with a splash of Grand Marnier. We had a fantastic and relaxing Saturday morning, not...

Dustin's aunt, uncle, and cousins sent us a cool kitchen gadget for Hanukkah— an omelet pan. Seeing all of our experimentation in the kitchen, I think that was a pretty perfect gift! We've never tried making omelets, as I'm sure we'd never be able to make them look pretty. We're better at scrambles. But now we have a cool new pan to make things...
