Brunchtime Popovers


Easy one this morning - have a few errands I'll be running shortly.


Mine didn't seem to "pop" as much as I had hoped, and they also didn't bake as long as Paula had mentioned. She estimated about 25 minutes and I took mine out at 20 minutes and they still seemed a little crisp to me on the outside. BUT she was definitely right about them having a hollow-like tendency. You can definitely taste the egg in them, which Mark enjoyed. He just left to work with a bag full of yummies to share with the others.

PS - the lucky number on the scale this morning was 143.

Kentucky Hot Brown


We had some leftover turkey from our re-vamp of Thanksgiving dinner the other evening, so I jumped on the opportunity to make another recipe using some turkey scraps for our brunch today. I'll be making another recipe for dinner later tonight, but thought I would go ahead and share this one. Very yummy, and super easy!


I am not a fan of bacon whatsoever, so most of my bacon came off after the picture, but I really loved the turkey and tomato combination under the sauce. Mark said it is something similar to Hollandaise sauce, which I have never made before but did see that there is recipe in the book that I'll tackle somewhere down the line. He was a big fan of this one and probably would have eaten another slice had I made the full recipe. With just the two of us, I am halfing recipes from here on out.
