Breakfast
Stop grabbing breakfast out and whip up a quick breakfast sandwich at home to save money. To make the perfect round egg for topping a bagel or muffin, cut both the top and bottom off a tuna can and use it as a mold in the skillet while cooking your egg. You can wash and reuse your mold over and over again.
When preparing foods for picky kids, try changing up your presentation. Place foods in unexpected containers like muffin tins or silicone cupcake liners, or cut fruits, cheese and sandwiches into fun shapes to make them more enticing. Eggs can be cooked in a metal cookie cutter to make breakfast more interesting.
If you use baking mix to make biscuits, replace the milk with a half cup of sour cream and a half cup of lemon lime soda to every 2 cups of baking mix. The biscuits will have a slightly sweet flavor and an extra-rich texture, and they make excellent vehicles for breakfast sandwiches.
For a make-ahead, grab-and-go breakfast, try breakfast burritos. On Sunday night cook up a pan of scrambled eggs and bacon. Use whole-wheat tortillas and fill them with the eggs, bacon, and top with cheese. Wrap in foil and refrigerate them and you will have breakfast ready for the whole family through Wednesday!
Add some pizazz to your breakfast eggs with this unique sauce. After making them sunny-side up, use sherry or wine-vinegar to de-glaze the pan. Pour the liquid over the eggs for a delicious and interesting twist to the same old usual egg dish. Eggs made this way are great for dinner too.
Cooking for large quantities of people at breakfast time can be a pain if you do not have enough eggs. Adding bread crumbs to the scrambled eggs can help to stretch them and feed more people. If you use seasoned bread crumbs, then it will also add to the overall flavor.
If you have a cup of coffee left over from breakfast, try adding it to baked goods. Coffee imparts a deep, smoky flavor that pairs especially well with chocolate. Use the flavors together in cake, cookies, or cupcakes. Serve them with mocha or caramel ice cream for a great taste combination.
Here’s a helpful tip to keep freshly made waffles and pancakes warm until it’s time for breakfast to be served. Warm your oven to 300 degrees. As you are cooking the pancakes and waffles, place the goods on a plate and put them in the oven to keep them warm.
Although there are many intricacies to baking, using these tips should allow you to become an excellent baker. There is no doubt that baking is a difficult cooking skill to master. So take your time, and do not be discouraged by minor setbacks. Practice these tips, and eventually you will get it perfect.
