Don't let the name fool you. Not only is this bake easy to pull together, it makes a great meal any time of day! The best part? This is one of those magic meals a tween could pull off solo, with nothing more than a little chopping supervision. Get your brunch on!
Brunch Bread Bake
Ingredients:
1 8-9 inch diameter loaf of whole grain bread
6 eggs
1/3 cup chopped red pepper
1/4 cup chopped chives
1/2 cup shredded cheese - we used sharp cheddar
salt and pepper to taste
olive oil for brushing
Instructions:
Cut off top of loaf and scoop out center to make a bowl - leave about an inch on all sides and keep bottom intact.
Brush inside of bread bowl with olive oil, then sprinkle with about a third of the cheese.
Beat eggs well, add salt and pepper to taste.
Pour into bread bowl.
Sprinkle red peppers and chives evenly over the eggs.
Top with another third of the cheese.
Place bread in a foil lined oven safe dish - we used a 10 inch cast iron skillet. Curl the foil around the bread edges to keep it from browning too fast.
Bake at 400 for 25 minutes, or until eggs puff and cooked through.
Let cool slightly before slicing. Top with chopped tomatoes, the rest of the cheese and chives to serve!
What if our children say “reading is boring”—how do we reset their love of reading? Here are 3 ways to put the spark back into your children’s love for books.
There are endless other little lessons that I hope my children pick up on through gardening. I'm looking forward to the ones they point out to me someday.
