24 frog's legs, skin removed
1 (4 ounce) packet saltine crackers, crushed
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup cornmeal
1 teaspoon minced onion
2 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Rinse the frog's legs and pat dry; set aside. In a large resealable bag, combine the saltine cracker crumbs, flour, cornmeal, onion, salt and pepper. Shake to mix. In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs and milk.
  • Heat the vegetable oil and peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be about 1/2 inch deep.
  • Dip the frog's legs into the milk and egg, then dip into the cracker mixture until evenly coated. Carefully place them in the hot oil.

KIDS will jump at the chance to sample the cute confection here! It's a real catch as a dessert for the frog-themed birthday party. To shape this web-footed fellow, our kitchen staff prepared a yummy round yellow cake for a body and then added whole cupcakes for eyes and a halved one for feet. The legs required no baking at all-they're Twinkies snack cakes! Tinted frosting, a licorice mouth and chocolate-candy pupils finished the colorful critter. Want to create your own? Just follow the recipe.

I never would have thought to combine green olives with cream cheese and celery, but it sure is delicious. I used regular cream cheese instead of reduced-fat. This is a serving size, but I assure you there were plenty more made that disappeared. Recipe courtesy of Eating Well.

Categories     Egg     Breakfast

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pieces of French bread
2 eggs
2 pieces of bagon
2 pieces of cheese (I recommend sharp cheddar or provolone)
2 tsp salt
2 tsp course ground pepper
1/4 cup dry white wine
pinch of each:
thyme
rosemary
savory
marjoram
oregano
(this is a dumbed down version of Herbs of Province)

Steps:

  • 1. Begin by separating the eggs. Place the yolks in a separate dish for later use, and whisk the whites together with about a tablespoon of cream or milk and the Herbs of Province mixture to your liking. Soak the bread in the mixture. 2. Put the oven on broil and the bacon on a rimmed cookie sheet. Position the cookie sheet about 4 inches from the coil. They will spend 2 minutes under the broiler. Then flip them. You want them cooked but not crunchy. They need to be soft and pliable. 3. Place a skillet on med/low heat with a dab of butter and oil. When skillet is hot place the bread in the skillet next to each other. Let it cook for about 30 seconds to 1 minute before flipping. You want the bread to begin to brown just a little. After flipping pour remaining egg white mixture over the top of the two pieces of bread, connecting them. Wait a minute or so and then flip again. 4. Form the bacon into a circle and place in middle of the bread to make a little circle. Then place the egg yolks in the middle of the bacon circles. Though bacon is delicious. The main purpose for the bacon is to keep the yolks from rolling off the bread into the skillet. Next drape the cheese over the top of the bacon, covering the yolks. 5. Now pour the wine into the skillet and cover. The wine should steam immediately, melting the cheese, cooking the yolks and preventing the bottom of the toast from burning. This should take about 30 seconds to 1 minute. 6. Last, if you so desire, add some hot sauce before plating. This recipe can be cut down by changing all the main ingredients to 1 instead of 2. I've been playing with this recipe for a couple of years. If you have any suggestions please post them. Have fun.

FROG IN A HOLE



Frog in a Hole image

Quick and easy and pretty tasty! Easy to eat in the car or on the way to class too! Perfect for the lazy college student sick of cold pizza for breakfast or lunch or dinner. ;)

Categories     Breakfast

Time 7m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 egg
1 slice bread (the bigger the better!)
1 -2 tablespoon shredded cheese (optional)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Spray a small pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Cut a hole in the middle of the bread.
  • Put the bread in the pan on medium/high heat for about a minute each side.
  • Crack the egg into the hole in the bread and turn until egg is cooked.
  • *The following are optional!*.
  • While the egg is cooking you can sprinkle on the cheese. I like the cheese kind of crispy so I put it on almost right after I crack the egg. If you'd like the cheese a little more runny you should probably wait until it's almost done or even after you take it off the heat.
  • You can toast and/or butter the bread lightly before cooking if you'd like but it's tasty either way.
