A couple of weeks ago I was spooning cottage cheese into little containers for the girls school lunch. “Besides eating it alone, or in Lasagne, what else can you use cottage cheese for?” my husband asked as he passed by me in the kitchen. I couldn’t think of a single thing, which totally surprised him and myself.
Then while browsing Eggs.ca for a new brunch idea on a lazy Saturday morning, because, brunch obviously calls for eggs, I stumbled on their Egg and Vegetable Casserole recipe.
This recipe called for – cottage cheese! AHA! How could I not make this recipe?
While the cottage cheese addition to this egg casserole piqued my curiosity, I was also drawn to the simple ingredients and the quick prep and cook time. These are things that very much appeal to my schedule!
Yet, the Egg and Vegetable Casserole recipe on Eggs101 was actually an inspiration to my own recipe, because I didn’t have cauliflower at the time and I wanted to add vegetables that I knew would be a hit with the kids.
So, instead I made the recipe with broccoli, spinach, green onions and cherry tomatoes. What a colourful mix, right? I also added more cheese because I truly think more cheese is always better.
Verdict, Score! Everyone, including myself, loved Egg and Vegetable Casserole and I know I’ll now make it again and again.
Not only because it was so delicious, but my family requested to have it again soon. I can’t argue with that!

I would make omelettes
First I would look up a recipe on the iPad, then using the cookware I would prepare Egg drop soup, while that was cooking I would browse through the swag bag, next I would use the frying pan to cook fried eggs that have been broken but not scrambled. These will be chunked up and added to the soup. This would then be served with a mixed green salad
I would make a Western Omelette as well yummy 🙂

Because we love omelettes in our home, I would be able to make fabulous omelettes for our family.
I’d make a frittata with asparagus in that lovely Lagostina cookware.
Cheers.
We love baked egg and bacon cups in our house. I line a muffin tin cup with one slice of bacon and pour in a mixture of beaten eggs, whatever veggies we have on hand and shredded cheese. I top with a little parmesan. We’ve had them for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
I would be making a delicious denver on homemade toast.
I would make the French toast! It’s my favourite way to eat eggs.
My omelette would be one with smoked salmon, boursin cheese, cheddar cheese and mushroom.
I would make egg salad, deviled eggs and mini quiches!! Wow! Thanks for the chance!
