Eggs in Heaven
This is a recipe I created while trying to find new ways to prepare eggs! In my house we like to have breakfast for dinner once a week. It's fast, cheap and everyone likes eggs, so there's no whining!
I've seen recipes on the Internet called 'Eggs in Purgatory' which is a sunny side down egg, served ontop of a potato pancake or hashbrowns and then on top of a bed of tomato sauce with a sprinkling of grated parmesan cheese.
That didn't appeal to me and I know my kids would never eat it, so I created 'Eggs in Heaven'. This consists of a sunny side down egg served on top of a potato pancake (or hash browns) sprinkled with white cheddar cheese on a bed of creamy cheddar cheese sauce. Everything tastes heavenly when creamy cheese sauce is involved! My family loved it! And if you're using store bought hash browns and cheese sauce, this can be ready in only a few minutes! Serve with a side of toast and you have a hearty, filling meal!
Great idea!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Laura! Sorry for my response but I just noticed your comment now when I was looking through my older posts!
DeleteThis actually does sound good....and I like the name of it. Who wants "eggs in purgatory" when you can have "eggs in heaven"? 8/09/12
ReplyDeletelol Thanks! Yes, I wouldn't want to eat anything in purgatory!
DeleteYum!!! We have an extremely busy afternoon after work tomorrow, think back to school supplies and eyebrows at the salon for me and the girls...
ReplyDeleteThis will be PERFECT when we get home!!! We love, love, love, breakfast for dinner!!!
I hate back to school time...I like having my kids home! Come back and let me know how you liked this! Thanks Didi! xoxox
DeleteLillian, we CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH!!!
ReplyDeleteI made your eggs in paradise tonight. The family loves you too!!
The only difference I did was to make a homemade Hollandaise sauce instead of the creamy cheesy sauce. I also fried up some frozen homefries as well. I served this beauty with bacon and toast. The family was in heaven and I was a very happy camper with dinner done in under 40 minutes!!!
Thank you again honey for an amazing recipe and idea... this will surely be on our dinner table for years to come!!!
xoxoxoxo
Hi Didi! I just love the way you tweaked it!!! Thank you for trying it and letting me know! You're the best!!! (((HUGS)))
Deletecant wait to try the whole chicken recipe
ReplyDeleteWhich whole chicken recipe?
DeleteI usually make my own cheese sauce, but I was wondering what good premade cheese sauces are out there.
ReplyDeleteHi Melissa! I always make my own also! But for this recipe you can use any jarred cheese sauce that you would find in the pasta sauce isle or even a jar of cheddar cheese dip from the potato chip isle. Here is a link with some great brands...

Hi
DeleteInstead of cheese sauce, I think I would substitute palenta, or maybe cheese Grits. Sounds really good.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! =D
DeleteAt our house we use hollandaise sauce! Kathleen Stoddart from Rhode Island
