Crispy Bacon Pancakes – My New Craving

By Lori Powell

I love a leisurely breakfast on the weekends and my favorite is Saturday brunch. After working all week, it’s such a luxurious treat to stay in bed one hour longer and to lounge around in my PJs after that.

I have to admit I am not such a big breakfast eater during the week and most days, I have a homemade juice of whatever fruits and veggies are in the fridge and/or a hard-boiled egg. However on the weekend, my idea of a good, balanced breakfast is a hit of sweet and savory.

What’s for Breakfast? French Toast is Easy and Delicious!

By Sandy Hu

French toast is a snap to make and it’s a great use for leftover French bread. Simply slice the bread before it gets too hard, and store in an airtight plastic bag until you’re ready to use it. For longer storage, freeze the slices and thaw for later.

Serve French Toast dusted with powdered sugar or garnish with fresh fruit in season. Pass the maple syrup.

A Mexican Breakfast 

By Andrew Hunter

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, especially for growing children. In our house, it’s also the primary meal that Marilyn and I prepare together. Our morning routine starts with switching on the coffee pot, then slicing fruit, scrambling eggs and making toast. Breakfast is on the table by the time the first cup of coffee is poured.

We were just in Mexico and were pleased to discover a Mexican breakfast is just like ours, but the fruit was spectacular. It was a tropical combination of papaya, mango, pineapple, watermelon, bananas and grapes served family-style. Because it was locally picked and had never been refrigerated, the perfectly ripe fruit was literally dripping with sweet flavor

Breakfast After a Morning of Antiquing

By Lori Powell

Oh yes, another weekend… except this is the first time I ventured out to have some fun which did not include a stop at a Home Depot, Lowe’s or the hardware store.

Ohhh, the lovely search and find of special objects and lure of antique shops and garage sales! Unfortunately Pennsylvania has plenty of them to satisfy my obsession of finding treasures amongst other people’s castaways. And yes, find I did…some old copper pots….old silverware and some pictures for the walls.

I am a huge fan of “Antiques Road Show,” except I am never home when the darned program is airing. Like the other folks clasping their treasures on the show, I am convinced I have a Picasso amongst my finds, except I still haven’t figured out which one has disguised itself as just an ordinary Joe!

Katie’s Super Easy Sunny Side Up

By Katie Barreira

Generally, I’m a pretty easy-going eater. But I’m a real stickler when it comes to eggs over easy. It’s a particularity comparable to my childhood aversion to fresh tomatoes, (as opposed to ketchup, a dietary staple) which I fiercely rejected, inspecting each leaf of lettuce on a plate of salad from which my mother had lovingly plucked the offending fruit and, upon spotting a cling-on seed, declared the dish to have been “slimed!”

Today, at 29 years old, I have a similarly infantile reaction to the mucus-like texture of an under-cooked egg white. Ironically, I am simply enamored of the rich and runny goodness of a barely cooked yolk that drips over bacon and sops into toast.
