On The Versatility Of Fried Eggs

As is so often the case when I'm in recipe development mode, I ate leftovers for breakfast this morning. Had some avocado-egg salad, which was just as good the next day, if a tad discolored. I also had some artichoke salad left, but no hard-boiled eggs. So I fried a couple, and ate them with the artichoke salad instead, and very nice it was, too.

Which led me to think about all the things I add fried eggs to. If I have leftovers, and I want to turn them into a meal, I often think "fried eggs." Fried eggs on warmed-over cauli-rice pilaf. Fried eggs with a bit of leftover steak. Fried eggs over creamed spinach, or leftover green beans almandine. Nearly any sort of leftover skillet supper with fried eggs on top. I've done sauteed chicken livers and onions with fried eggs on top, which is fabulous. Leftover low carb Shepherd's Pie with fried eggs. Fried eggs with leftover meatloaf.

Try it! Fried eggs turn all sorts of things into a yummy, nutritious, and filling meal.
