Make this breakfast idea into an Easter tradition. Add piece of
toast in a skillet cut out the middle with a oval cutter or other
shape cutter. Crack an egg in the hole. Cook both sides until golden
brown or however you like your eggs cooked. Decorate to make a chick
using olives for eyes and cut pepper for beak, feet and wings.
Carrot Veggie Toasts
Cut a slice of bread into a carrot shape or use a cookie cutter. Spread cream
cheese or other spread on top. Sprinkle shredded carrots on the
bottom half of your carrot, to resemble the orange carrot part and
add chopped broccoli to the tops for the stems.

Use Nutella, peanut butter or cream cheese as the spread. Then add
fruit to make animal faces.
Asparagus Toast
Toast your bread. Top with cooked asparagus and layer with a fried
egg.
Mash berries with blender or by hand to equal 4 cups. Stir in
pectin, let stand 10 minutes. Stir often. Pour into saucepan and
bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook and stir 1 minute while
boiling. Fill clean jars or freezer containers and store in fridge
until jam is set. Store one in your fridge and the remainder in your
freezer.
