Creamed Eggs on Toast

"My mom made this on special days for breakfast. It was a family favorite growing up. Now I make for my hubby on those "special" days that I want to say he's tops in my book. You may wish to double this recipe for big eaters or if no fruit and meat accompany the meal."

  1. My, oh my! This was a walk down memory lane. In all honesty, I had forgotten about this dish for probably 40 years. I did it for a quick, easy dinner tonight, and was everything I remember my mom cooking decades ago. This will remain on both my breakfast and dinner menues. Thanks so much for posting. I really don't think I would have ever encountered nor thoughht about a childhood fave had I not run acoss this today.
     
  2. Much like many of you, this brought memories from my childhood. I did make one addition that we did when I was young. I spread deviled ham on the toast. It was funny because I didn't even know if the deviled ham was even made anymore, but sure enough I found it in our local supermarket. It added a little "bite" to the dish and was soooooo goooood!
     
  3. I grew up eating this dish as well. I am the only one left who eats it , so it is now a dish I only eat on Easter morning. The only thing I do differently is I keep the yolks seperate ,crumble them in a bowl ,and cover the entire top with a dry yolk mixture. Awesome readers should try this dish.
     
  4. I've never had a dish like this before. Kind of like a warm and creamy egg salad. Delicious and comforting. I sprinkled some bacon and scallions on top for additional flavor and color.
     
  5. My husband grew up with this and asked me to make it for him today. I had NO CLUE what it even was but this recipe was exactly how he remembered... just like his mommy used to make! Thank you so much for sharing. I loved it too and it will be a regular weekend treat for us now.
