I
haven’t done one of these posts in a while but this one was too good to pass
up. Our friends, Dave and Laurie,
brought us part of a box of portabella mushrooms and we had some cremini’s in
the fridge so mushroom dishes were in order.
The
first was a sausage mushroom quiche for breakfast using a recipe from Allrecipes and the second was stuffed mushrooms for supper using another recipe from
Allrecipes. I failed to get a shot of the quiche and the
stuffed mushroom ones weren’t good enough to post, but both dishes were very good and I would make
either of them again.
As
it turned out, all of the egg mixture would not fit into the crust for the
quiche and we didn’t have enough portabellas to use all of the stuffing mixture
so a breakfast meal was born. Bev added
a couple more beaten eggs and combined the two leftover mixtures for a
scramble.
While
the photo may not show it, the scramble was delicious – how could it not be
with mushrooms, spinach, pepperoni, sausage, and cheese. While we are unlikely to have this very same
mixture available again, we know they go together very well. Next time we may make an omelet using the
quiche ingredients for the egg part and the mushroom stuffing as such.

Have
a great day and thanks for stopping by Almost Heaven South.

What not t like about eggs, mushrooms, sausage, and cheese looks so very tasty.
ReplyDeleteLeft-over mushrooms are fabulous the next day in scrambled eggs and we always "try" to save some for breakfast. Love the tomatoes and cottage cheese side too.

I'm with Sam, I love cottage cheese combos as a side dish. And the egg/mushroom/allthingsdelicious combo sounds great.
ReplyDeleteLarry, Glad you enjoyed the mushrooms... As you know mushrooms aren't part of my diet...but Laurie loves them. We grilled some whole caps with butter and garlic which made Laurie, her sister and brother-in-law very happy. Then the other day, Laurie sliced some of them up, slathered them with more butter and garlic and I hit them quickly on the grill. She was a happy camper! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteEverything sounded really good except for the cheese. Those are good looking tomatoes. Jim keeps trying to find some that actually taste like tomatoes.
ReplyDeleteI love a good hearty breakfast - sounds and truly looks, wonderful! I'm drooling over those tomatoes and cottage cheese too - one of my favorites!
ReplyDeleteCongrats oh so excited for you. This is such an honor and your home so deserving. I cannot wait to see you in the next issue.

My compliments to the chef! I love mushrooms and eggs, what's not to like about them! On a hot summer night will even have a mushroom and egg omelette for dinner, mmm, with cheese of course!
ReplyDeleteI am so hungry for breakfast....who cares that it is really lunch time. Mushrooms and eggs...delicious!
ReplyDeleteCoincidentally, all of those ingredients work great for a pizza too. Great improvisation guys, this sounds fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI can never remember to take pictures of food these days. I understand your dilemma. Sounds like 2 great meals!
ReplyDeleteYUM... Delicious... I still think you need to publish a cookbook ---of what to do with left-overs.. That would make for a fantastic cookbook!!!!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

I think that combination of flavors in the scramble sound delicious! It paired nicely with the cottage cheese and tomatoes too.
