Breakfast Loaf

 

I made French Bread Rounds and needed to create something to do with them. The hubby loved the idea of a big sandwich! So, I made Ham, Egg and Cheese, and I added a couple of slices of tomato! It was a hit! You can make your own or buy a round loaf of French Bread. I made mini loaves because we don't need an entire loaf. It's up to you.

Breakfast Loaf

6 eggs

1 T butter

Salt and Pepper, to taste

1 round loaf French Bread

6 oz sliced deli ham

1 cup Cheddar cheese

1 cup Monterey Jack cheese

1 tomato, thinly sliced*

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Whisk eggs together with salt and pepper to taste. In a large skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Pour eggs into the skillet and cook until no liquid remains. Set aside.

Cut the top of the loaf off and hollow out both sides. Save the insides for breadcrumbs.

Place a layer cheddar cheese in the bottom loaf. Layer with ham, eggs and tomato, top with Monterey Jack Cheese. Replace the top lid.

Wrap loaf tightly in foil. Bake until loaf is heated through, about 25-30 minutes. Let stand 5-10 minutes before cutting. Enjoy! 

* You can add some peppers and onions, but I would sauté them to remove some water first. I dried the tomato sliced off too. The cheese on top and bottom helps seal the bread and keeps them from getting soggy. 

Homemade Breakfast Hot Pockets

 

You can make your own hot pockets and control your ingredients. No preservatives or processed cheese sauces. Simple four ingredient recipe!

Ingredients:

Crescent Roll Dough
Sliced Ham*
Cheddar Cheese
3 Eggs, scrambled

Scramble 3 eggs in a little butter and set aside.

Take two piece of crescent dough and pinch the seams together to make a rectangle. Layer one half with ham, eggs and cheese. Fold the dough over to make a square and pinch the edges closed.

                            

Bake them at 375 degrees for 10 - 12 minutes. Enjoy!

*I used deli ham and heated it in a frying pan to remove some of the water content.
