I gotta buncha eggs! Ideas?!
My (future) mother-in-law just gave me two dozen eggs from her chickens!. I'll never get all those fixed before they go bad!. Any ideas for recipes that use a bunch of eggs!? Thanks!Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
Eggs Benedict, Zabaglione, Aioli, Spaghetti Carbonara, Creme Caramel, Creme Brulee
All of these will use a lot of eggs, especially the eggs benedict!.
This may be the perfect time for you to try to make a hollidaise sauce(which goes with eggs benedict, and is also the base for bearnaise sauce), it may take you a couple of tries, but you've got enough eggs to do it!.
More satisfying would be the zabaglione, which is a fantastic dessert!. Cool it down and fold it into whipped cream to make a zabaglione mousse!.
Feed an egg to your dog!.
Have fun with it make it a learning experience!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Make a frittata---you can google recipes for it but essentially, it's a great way to use up leftovers!.
Say you you have some leftover spaghetti, some leftover grilled chicken and some left over broccoli!. Get a large, over safe skillet and saute some chopped onion, garlic and peppers if you like, in a generous dash of olive oil!. Season well with salt and pepper (add some chili powder or crushed red pepper flakes if you like some heat)!. Toss in your left over chicken (cut into chunks), broccoli and pasta!. Toss to coat!. Scramble 6-8 eggs with a bit of milk and pour over the mixture!. Cook for a few minutes over medium heat until the eggs start to set!. Sprinkle generously with your favorite grated cheese and place in a 350 oven until the cheese is browned and the eggs are completely set!. Cut into wedges and serve with marinara sauce if desired!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Ice Cream!. It takes 18 eggs to make 2 QTS!. We used to have 41 chickens!. So we had to use 20 plus per day or give away!.
also, breakfast casseroles or deviled eggs!.
Invite some friends for breakfast - have some fun!.
Or hardboil the lot and hand them out to the homeless!.
PS Eggs are usually good for two months if refrigerated!. The ones you get in the store are usually two or three weeks old, then they don't expire for at least a month!. So, you have lots of time to use them up!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
