My family makes a lot of Easter Eggs. I means dozens upon dozens. Maybe it is the nostalgia of using the coloring kits, but it’s something that my mum and I always do. And I do like eggs (well, some eggs — not much for the soft-boiled kind) but after a couple of days and a few dozen eggs, eggs get a little boring. Enter deviled eggs. I *love* deviled eggs of any sort. I think that on my site I have at least a dozen variations (appropriate, eh?). This yeah, I decided to go with the smoked salmon and dill variation. Great addition to a picnic or brunch menu (ok, it’s a little to early to be picnicking in New England, but bookmark this for later in the year or something).
Breakfast/Brunch
Sunshine in jars! Every year, I fall in love with Meyer Lemons all over again. They are beautifully sweet yet tart, a little bitter, and oh so juicy. Because they are mostly only available in these parts in winter, I try to make them last as long as possible with jams and jellies, curds and sugars. So here we have two of those things: jam and curd. Very delicious for breakfast or tea, add a bit of curd to yogurt or even a vinaigrette. Delicious.
When life hands you beat up looking bananas, make some spectacular Caramel Rum Banana Streusel Muffins! This recipe is actually originally for banana *bread*, but I have now made this same recipe also as coffee cake and muffins. All have been great, but I do have to say that the original *bread* version is still my favorite. Happy Monday!
