Yesterday, I kind of joked around and posted a really bad for you but delicious breakfast like what I would have have “back in the day.” That is back when I was fat and killing myself with food. Toady, in honor of the end of National Breakfast Month, I will post what is a more [...]

I love diner fare for breakfast. It’s bad for my heart. It doesn’t really fit into my new Weight Watchers’ lifestyle, but, hey, I still like it. Don’t eat it any more, but I do have a recurring dream … One of my old favorites from before I realized that I was killing myself with [...]
This is my favorite omelet. It’s an egg white omelet stuffed with, over stuffed with spinach, tomatoes, onion, mushroom, and fat free feta cheese.

A little effort in finding good kippers will be rewarded tenfold in the flavour. Telling the difference between real and dyed [...]
Eggs are back on the menu. It turns out that they have 22% less cholesterol than was once reported. Skeptical? So am I. I still use egg substitutes and egg whites in most recipes that call for whole eggs, most of the time. Though some times a whole egg is still just the thing … [...]

We have been enjoying waffles at our house for the last couple of weeks. I started with the basic Bisquick recipe, then I pulled out some of my old cook books. I tried one from a reprint of the Original Fannie Farmer 1896 Cookbook. I found this one on the Culinary Institute of America’s site. [...]
