Creamy Mushrooms and Eggs - FFwD



Do you ever have a day when you know that you will be unable to complete Friday's assignment for French Fridays with Dorie without extreme effort on your part? 

I confess that we are weekend only egg people.  During the week we eat oatmeal, cereal, yogurt, fruit.  Nothing that requires effort.

But, I am back in the saddle and once I realized that I should have been cooking this weekend,  I decided to forge on.

I went in search of mushrooms. 

I am lucky to be able to find some interesting mushrooms.  While I was getting the mushrooms, I picked up some fresh farm eggs and lovely loaf of bread.  Not brioche.  Not a huge brioche fan. 

And then, I got myself out of bed and made my husband some eggs before work.  first time in 26 years.  They were delicious.  They'd be better on a weekend day.

    If I don't already have all the ingredients by Friday, I usually just skip it! =D

    Did your husband think he had died and gone to heaven when you presented him with that beautiful breakfast. I'm sure that could become a habit with him. I thought this recipe was worth whatever effort had to be made. Very tasty and I will make it again.

    Oh, I´m so jealous of your eggs. That´s exactly what I envisioned I would get and exactly what I didn´t...ja! Gorgeous breakfast Anne! Now you get to make it on the weekend again.

    We actually will eat eggs all the time for dinner during the week. Often prepared just like this. I wish, though, that someone who shall remain nameless would prepare eggs on a work day for me though. That would be a lovely love-gift.

    This definitely made a lovely weekend brunch dish, so making it on a weekday should have made that day quite special. Looks delicious.

    This would be a great weekend brunch dish and I applaud your weekday effort! I love the selection of mushrooms you had to choose from, too.

    Uh oh - was your husband worried when you made him breakfast before work :-)
    Bravo for tackling this on a work morning.

    Love your photo of the different mushrooms! I'm afraid I made mine the easy way (that is with a package of crimini that I picked up sliced), but your dish turned out beautifully. I had it for dinner and loved every bite. It would be amazing for brunch though - good idea.
