This month, I’m excited to be again concerned with the Improv Problem, which is run by Kristen @ Frugal Antics of a Harried Homemaker who challenges us meals bloggers to give you inventive recipes utilizing a selected meals pairing. This month’s theme is a traditional duo: bacon & eggs.
My recipe, Broccoli Rabe, Bacon and Eggs Bruschetta, is the final word recipe mash-up and right here’s how I got here up with it.
- I’ve been desirous to do a breakfast bruschetta for awhile.
- One among my favourite meals from my childhood was when my mother made bacon and scrambled eggs for dinner. Now being a mom myself, I understand it was fast, no brainer supper nevertheless it felt “unique” to have breakfast for dinner.
- Once I noticed Melissa Clark’s put up about Pecorino Fried Bread with Broccoli on her new Restaurant Takeaway weblog, I knew I had so as to add broccoli rabe to my toasted bread, too. It’s in all probability my Italian roots, however sautéed broccoli rabe is one among my very favourite greens. My
veggie phobichusband thinks I’m nuts after I say it’s pretty much as good as sweet when cooked excellent. (The trick is to boil it first after which sauté it so it’s not too bitter.)
This might be served as an appetizer, eaten for breakfast, lunch, snack or dinner like an open-face sandwich. You might swap in any kind of sautéed or roasted vegetable like peppers, zucchini or eggplant.
