The Brunch Bug Bit Me–Bacon and Egg Bialy

by J3nn (Jenn's Menu and Lifestyle Blog) on September 11, 2011

I love bacon and eggs and egg sandwiches, yet I don’t eat them often. There are some foods that I Mmm Mmm through every bite and vow to start eating them 3 times a day and it never happens. I like breakfast foods, but I hardly ever eat them for breakfast. Today was the exception. Today the thought of an egg and bacon sandwich on a bagel would not leave my mind. So I took a short trip down to the local Trading Post—a small local IGA-type of store where everybody knows your name and your cat’s name and what year your son Johnny is graduating. They didn’t have any fresh bagels at the deli, but they did have bialies. Bialies (bialys?) are bialys basically bagels with no hole in the center. Same texture, same ingredients, same shape, same YUM factor.

At home, I already had everything else I needed: Applegate Farms uncured bacon and grass-and-bug-fed free-range eggs. Done and done.

Summer’s almost over, so my summer sandwich series is coming to an end. But don’t worry, the sandwich series will live on. hehe

Summer Sandwich Series: Breakfast Sandwich!

Yum and yum!

2 scrambled eggs + 2 slices Applegate Farms uncured bacon on a a lightly toasted “everything” bialy with fresh organic strawberries. And water in a coffee cup, of course.

Organic berries don’t hold up as long as regular ones. Sad smile These were on their last leg. I bought a quart of regular strawberries last night. But here in NY they’re way, way out of season anyway, so does it matter much? Nope.

Best breakfast I have had all week. The only breakfast I have had all week, LOL. I’ve been doing intermittent fasting this week, so this was a nice change up. The bialy was so fresh; crusty on the outside, soft and doughy inside. Perfect!

I have a ridiculous amount of housework to get done today. Actually, not all of it today, but this week. Today is just day one of a very long week, err, month. Seriously though, this house is a wreck still. Not dirty, but disorganized and cluttered, which drives me insane. We’ve gotten about 78 deliveries this week, so boxes and STUFF are just everywhere. I need to stop buying stuff so I don’t have to find a place to put it! I need help. Mental help that is, LOL. I don't know smile

Ugh. Off to tackle this. Angry smile

Two Eggs in a Pod

February 10, 2011 Intermittent Fasting

I bought these Poach Pods a long, long time ago and finally tried them out yesterday. They’re made of nonstick silicone, so I didn’t use any oil, but this guy did. He also shows you how to use them. Do you ever buy stuff and then not use it for a while? I do that [...]

The Last of the Honeycrisps

January 21, 2011 Jenneral Posts

We did a little pre-snowstorm shopping last night, and I was so disappointed when we got to the produce department @ Hannford: No more Honeycrisp apples! Even the sign was gone, not a trace of them to be found anywhere. I was devastated, especially knowing I only had a few left in the stash at [...]

I want the pot of gold at the end of my rainbow to be gold. Kerrygold. It’s so bright and lovely! What do you do with such perfection? You make banana bread French toast, of course! My mom baked a loaf of banana bread from a recipe by  the Neely’s Gawd, they make some yummy [...]

Almost Grain Free Diet Day 21: Quinoa Breakfast Cereal

October 11, 2010 Grain Free Diet

I really wanted a bowl of cereal on Sunday morning, but I was back in the “no grains” groove after my stray day on Saturday, so that wasn’t going to happen. Or, was it? I haven’t eaten much quinoa on this 31 day challenge even though I said I was going to keep it in [...]

Breakfast Booty

August 24, 2010 Jenneral Posts

Most of you probably know I’m not always a traditional breakfast foods person. Yes, I love eggs, cereal, oatmeal, pancakes–just not always for my first meal of the day. I can go for a salad with shrimp or a plate of pasta first thing in the morning, but I’m also not opposed to an old [...]

What A Coinky Dinky

July 8, 2010 Jenneral Posts

Check this out: when I edit my food images, I always make a backup copy in another folder, just in case something goes wrong–and it has on numerous occasions, lol. Anyway, when I tried to paste today’s breakfast images in, it said that the files already exist. I’m like, “huh? I know I didn’t paste [...]
