Being Cheap is Easy: Breakfast fun for the kids!

Breakfast fun for the kids!

July 02, 2012



Tonight was one of those nights where I had no ideas for dinner.  When that happens, it's brinner time!  AKA: breakfast for dinner, if you didn't watch Scrubs.  Shame on you, by the way!  It was an amazing show!

I realized that we were out of pancake mix, so I came up with a new idea for the ladies.  When I was in college, my roommate Kim made these eggs she called "bird's nests" and they were so amazing.  You get toast and eggs in one pop! 

This is a great meal to have your kids help with! 

Here's what you need (pretty self explanatory...):
  • Bread
  • Eggs
  • Butter
  • Cookie cutter
    • Keep the shape simple.  We tried a hand and it was a mess.
 Simple steps
  1. Butter the toast on both sides
  2. Cut a shape out of the middle with a cookie cutter.  
  3. Add both to a pan over medium-high heat.  Make sure to spray it!
  4. Crack an egg in the middle of the toast.  Season with S + P.
  5. Flip after 2-3 minutes
Voila!  We use the shape to dip.  The girls love some dippy eggs right now!


What's your favorite brinner meal?

Thank you! If you want to bump it up, you can add cheese and a slice of ham once you flip it. Super tasty, as well.
