Your family is the center of attention first thing in the morning, getting every one off to a good start with a healthy breakfast that will keep their energy levels high all day – so you must make your breakfast time together one that will pull memories together. Think back to when you were young, you most likely have memories of a certain meal, a way that some of your meals where made, the smells of eggs, bacon, and other recipes floating through the house as you were getting ready for your day.
Maybe you dad did the cooking, your mom, grandma or maybe you had a housekeeper that made breakfast every morning – the one thing that you will take to your future, or give to your kids for their future, is the memories of meals together. So, let’s talk about breakfast for a while!
If you are trying to create memories for your children’s futures, you need to start with the foods that they like the most. If your children are into cold cereals and pop tarts you are going to have to make a few choices so that they can start liking a few of the things that you are going to be cooking. Making them at least try what new creations that you are going to make for them so that you can continue to make memories for their futures.
Using eggs in your breakfast can be an important part of making something that every one is going to love. Omelets are a great addition to those special breakfast mornings. So many ingredients can be added to omelets like ham, cheese, beef, peppers, onions, carrots, even chocolate chips! If your children are young, you can make colored eggs using just a few drops of food coloring or you can add a bit of yogurt that is going to make your eggs soft and fluffy.
Another quick trick that you can use to make eggs that your young children and your older children alike will just love is taking a piece of bread, ripping out the center putting the bread on the pan, and then putting the egg inside the bread. Add a little butter to the pan so that the bread doesn’t stick and it adds a great taste at the same time. You can make this egg inside scrambled by poking the center or you can make it dippy by just flipping when the one side is finished cooking.
