Im officially so over eggs right now , it will be a few weeks I think before I can even think about eating eggs for breakfast, We roughly used about a dozen or so per day, doing this for 4 days , I tasted more eggs this week than I have done over a period of 5 or 6 months.<\/p>\n<p>Eggs benedict . folded omelette, cigar omelette, spanish omelette, potato and spinach frittata, eggs en cocotte, french toast with orange\/lemon syrup, and my personal favourite dessert omelette with a berry couli<\/p>\n<p>Quiche Lorraine always a popular favourite<\/p>\n<p>Let me tell you about a few of these, I have always been an eggs benedict fan when going out for a breakfast , still love them but wont be eating them for a while. Omelettes are great for a gentle dinner, Potato and spinach frittata , great for picnics, great hot , wonderful cold ,and frittatas can be flavoured in so many different ways. Eggs en cocotte  seriously have to be the worst egg dish I have ever tasted . They have a base of spinach and onion cooked in cream and reduced down a little then an egg popped on top and cream floated around it and cooked in a ramekin for an individual serving.<\/p>\n<p>Cooked in a water bath in the oven  so that it is just poached.<\/p>\n<p>the texture of the egg and the cream together just made me gag and I think its a good thing that this dish is no longer popular , people would probably die from a heart attack after eating it.<\/p>\n<p>And the eternal favourite French toast , this was light and fluffy and had orange and lemon maple syrup over the top<\/p>\n<p>mmm the breakfast of  sweet champions  :o)<a href=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/eggsbenedict.jpg\" title=\"eggs benedict\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/eggsbenedict.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"eggs benedict\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/foldedomelette.jpg\" title=\"folded omelette\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/foldedomelette.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"folded omelette\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/spinachpotatofrittata.jpg\" title=\"spinachpotatofrittata.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/spinachpotatofrittata.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"spinachpotatofrittata.jpg\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/quichelorraine.jpg\" title=\"quiche lorraine\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/quichelorraine.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"quiche lorraine\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/ouefencocotte.jpg\" title=\"ouefencocotte\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/ouefencocotte.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"ouefencocotte\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/dessertomelette.jpg\" title=\"dessert omelette\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/dessertomelette.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"dessert omelette\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/frenchtoast.jpg\" title=\"frenchtoast\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/frenchtoast.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"frenchtoast\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/lemonfrenchtoast.jpg\" title=\"lemon french toast\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theunknownchef.co.nz\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/lemonfrenchtoast.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"lemon french toast\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>this week we did things with eggs, now this stuff I can do in my sleep but it was still fun to do .
