Easy but good breakfast/brunch recipes?

Every Christmas, I make a couple of dishes for breakfast for the family. Usually a sweet and a savory. Cooking for about 5 people.

I used to go all out and make crazy dishes, but it's getting a little hectic.

Suggestions for easy, but good breakfast/brunch dishes? Besides the usual pancakes, omelets and scrambled eggs...

Re: Easy but good breakfast/brunch recipes?

Instead of regular scrambled or an omelete, you could do baked eggs..

Baked Egg -- single serving ramekin

2 tablespoons panko bread crumbs
1 teaspoon butter
3 tablespoons chopped vegetables -- spinach, or basil, or sundried tomato
¼ cup shredded cheese (i used asiago)
1 tablespoon fresh chopped herbs
2 eggs
2 tablespoons whole milk
Salt and pepper to taste

Combine the panko and butter in a and bake bread crumbs in the oven until they are lightly golden, stirring them halfway through. When done, transfer the bread crumbs to a small bowl.

Put ½ of the vegetables, cheese, and herbs in the bottom of the ramekin. Crack the eggs into the ramekin, then pour the milk over them. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then top with the remaining vegetables, cheese, herbs, and bread crumbs.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, depending on how well-done you like your eggs.

I make this every year for Christmas and it is delish.

I also make a breakfast quiche which is great and easy:

6 eggs
Milk
2 cups Cheddar cheese
1/2 pound bacon
frozen pie shell
1/2 onion

Chop onion and saute in frying pan.
Cook bacon
Bake pie shell for 5 minutes
Spread onion on bottom of pie shell

In bowl, whisk eggs and milk.
Stir in bacon and 1/2 of cheese
Pour over onions in pie crust
Top with remaining cheese and bake at 350 for about 35-40 minutes.

I always cover the edges of my pie crust (tin foil) otherwise they burn.

It's so good and so easy.

Re: Easy but good breakfast/brunch recipes?

You can do a breakfast bake.....

I usually prepare mine the night before I cook it.

Ingredients:
1 Sausage Log (use 2 of the Zesty Bob Evans) You can also use other types of meat (i.e. bacon, ham)
8 Eggs
12 Slices of bread ripped up (stale is best)
4 Cups shredded cheese (I used cheddar)
4 Cups of milk
1 Tablespoon of powdered mustard
2 Tablespoons of Worcestershire Sauce
Salt and Pepper (Few shakes of each)

The night before:
1. Cook the meat.
2. Mix in a large bowl the 8 eggs, 4 cups of mile, tablespoon of powdered mustard, 2 tablespoons of worcestershire sauce and the salt and pepper.
3. In a 9 x 13 pan layer the following: 6 ripped up slices of bread, 2 cups of cheese, 1/2 cup of meat. Repeat again, 6 ripped up slices of bread, 2 cups of cheese and the rest of the meet.
4. Pour the egg mixture on top. Cover and store in fridge.

In the morning, preheat overn to 350 degrees.
Cook the mixture for one hour.

MIL does this except she substitutes white potatoes for the bread. It's really good.
