Morning Egg & Asparagus Breakfast

Pin to Pinterest

Rise and Shine! This dish will change the way you look at vegetables in the morning. A fried egg atop a bed of delicious asparagus, drizzled with sauce is just what you need to get your morning going. Asparagus is loaded with fiber, folate, vitamins A, C, E and K combined with the protein of an egg, you’ll be off to a great start! We might suggest (if you are not watching carbs) you add an english muffin or consider bacon.

Ingredients:

  • 4 to 5 Stalks of Fresh Asparagus
  • 1 tbsp Butter
  • 1 Egg
  • Salt and Pepper

Directions:

  1. In a small skillet add in stalks of asparagus and a little bit of water to softened the stalks
  2. Once softened remove the asparagus and place on a plate.
  3. Leave remaining water in the skillet, add in 1 T of butter. Stir constantly and make sure it foams up a bit. Don’t let it burn otherwise it’ll have a funny taste. The foaming is what will help the sauce thicken up. As you are stirring add in desired amount of salt and pepper.
  4. Once sauce has thickened you can pour it onto your asparagus or you can add it to a bowl and wait to pour it over the fried egg.
  5. Fry up the egg in the skillet and then place on top of the steamed asparagus. If sauce hasn’t already been poured go ahead and do so now.
  6. Enjoy with a glass of cold orange juice.

Chocolate Dipped Cookie Dough Hearts

Pin to Pinterest

Is anyone else a cookie dough eater? What is it about this sweet treat. Often my cookies get eaten raw before the make it to the oven to bake. We have the perfect treat for the cookie dough and chocolate lover! These Cookie Dough Hearts are the perfect treat. Serve for Valentine’s Day or any ole’ reason. Enjoy!

Chocolate Dipped Cookie Dough Hearts:

Yields: 25 – 35 hearts (may vary depending on size of cookie cutter used)
Total Time: 20 minutes + 30 minutes cool time = 50 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup butter, softened
  • 6 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2-3 tablespoons water
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 cups milk chocolate chips
  • Optional: decorative sprinkles


Directions:

  1. Combine flour, baking soda, salt, sugars, softened butter and vanilla extract in a large bowl. With clean hands, work the dough. Add 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and continue to work the dough until chocolate chips are incorporated. One tablespoon at a time, add water if needed to get the desired consistency.
  2. Lay a piece of parchment paper on a large flat surface (baking sheet or cutting board works well). Place the dough onto the parchment paper and spread it out evenly until the thickness reaches approximately 1/2”.
  3. Place the cookie dough in the fridge to cool for 20 minutes.
  4. Once cooled, use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out hearts from the dough (smaller cookie cutters work best to make bite sized pieces). Combine the scrap dough continually to make as many hearts as possible.
  5. Once all dough is used, place 2 cups milk chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 15-20 seconds, stir and continue this process until chocolate is completely melted. Place one heart in the chocolate at a time and completely coat. Using a fork lift the cookie dough heart out of the chocolate – tapping the side of the bowl to ensure excess chocolate drips off. Place the chocolate covered heart back on the parchment paper, and quickly add sprinkles (if desired) while chocolate is still melted. Continue this process until all cookie dough hearts are covered in melted chocolate.
  6. Chill in the fridge for 10 additional minutes and then serve.

*Cookie dough hearts should be stored in the refrigerator
