Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
we always put a slice of mozzarella over the egg, when it was done, and put it under the grill for a minute till it melted...would be good with a little tomato sauce on it too................

Best onion rings I have ever had were in Whitstable, kent, England at the Duke of Cumberland Pub. Whitstable is the seaside town, charming, famous for its oysters,but oh those beautifulfreshly made just for me onion rings! Too bad its a fair commute from my Brooklyn home!

Have you seen the movie ( "Tom Jones" from the 60s?) with that marvelous eating scene? Maybe it is not what you eat, but how you eat it?
Vegetarian Brunch
Thanks for all the good ideas!
I think I might make red lentil soup and stuffed mushrooms. This is really more lunchy than brunchy.
I love the idea of the potato pancakes,though! and the bagel platter and make your own smoothie.

@engmcmuffin Thanks for the info and the suggestion. Making my own Won tons could be fun.
absentminded kitchen disasters
I am so glad to see that many others forget about their hard boiled eggs!
I have been alerted many times by the loud popping in the kitchen and each time, I can't believe That I have done it again!
But probably the weirdest kitchen mishap was when I was grading Spanish exams. I was sitting at the table with a messy pile of papers and books, when a finicky friend dropped by. I grabbed all the papers and threw them into the oven, to neaten up...then I forgot that they were there. The oven was not turned on, but by the time I remembered my papers, the heat of the pilot light had curled and browned each and every exam. I had a hard time explaining that one to my students!
I always make____for the holidays, because my Grandma did
The tradition in our family was to have a ham and home made macaroni and cheese on Christmas Eve at my grandparents' house. When I got married and moved to Mexico, I continued the tradition. One day someone asked me what the significance was of this dinner. I called my aunt back home in Connecticut. The answer? "Your grandparents used to invite everyone back to supper after the church Christmas Eve Carol Sing. It was the easiest thing to make for a crowd!" and yup, we still do ham and mac cheese!

A Hole in One!!!! My grandfather used to make these for me when I was a very little girl, visiting him in Lancaster, PA. He was not a golfer. He was first-generation American of Swedish descent, who had grown up in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Some great names here - I love Egyptian Eyes especially! But wow: over 200 comments, and apparently no one else calls them "top hats". (And yes, I always thought my mother invented them, too. :) )
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
My hubby made these for me for me all the time when we were in college - we call them Eggs in a Basket.

@Ed Levine - My mom called them "Egyptian eggs" as well. I think me, you and Embackus's friend were the only one. It seems to be the least known name for them.

Eggy in a basket, from V for Vendetta.

Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Everyone knows it's called a "bunny egg". My grandmother invented it.
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Growing up Dad called it a Bulls Eye (from Rhode Island). We always loved when Dad had to make breakfast! He cut the hole with a shot glass so the hole was just big enough for the yolk part and the rest of the egg ran over the bread so you had to flip it and cook that side too! Just don't over cook it and it won't be dry. The hardest part was buttering both sides of the bread. I get around that now by using a brush and softened butter.
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
My mom always called this "egg in a hat" - I guess when you put the cut-out circle back on top of the hole in the toast, without pushing it all the way in, it looks a little like a hat...
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
My mama has been making this as long as I can remember. It's called the One Eyed Sailor Egg in our house...
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Never saw them till I married my ex when he used to fix them for our kids. He called them Toad in the Hole.
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Cut two holes in the bread and drop in two eggs and call it " here's looking at you" You could even put at the bottom a piece of bacon for the mouth- curve it upwards at the ends to make it smile.
That's presentation! Dave

Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Mom and Gandma called it TOAD-IN-A-HOLE, must be the correct name, Mom and Grandma 'God rest their Souls' were never wrong!
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Egg-in-a-Hat! But my husband has never heard of it! I'll have to make it for breakfast tomorrow! :)
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Eggs in a Frame...came from a Betty Crocker cookbook I had when I was a little girl, a long, long time ago!!! That and "Cheese Dreams", which was english muffins, slice of tomato, bacon, and (ugh) velveeta cheese under a broiler...my 2 favorite meals!!!

My husband and I call them Moonstruck eggs, but my 100 year old grandmother calls them "Moon Over Miami"
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
gueralinda....sorry, Toad in the Hole is a banger/sausage in Yorkshire pudding batter. I'm English, live in England and eat Toad in the Hole at least twice per month. Bubble & Squeak is another favorite of mine....but that's off topic.
Cheers!
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Toad in the Hole. Toad in the Hole. Toad in the Hole. Anything else is just wrong! Actually, in the interest of sociology, we should all be putting the source of our name here as well, for example, my Dad called them toad in the hole. He grew up in the tri-cities, WA, and is of scotch-english background.
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
My Mom always called this (my favorite breakfast EVER!) eggy-in-a-hole, but for some reason by the time I was in college I picked up the name "Gaslight Special" from a roommate.
Weird.
