    Egg recipes?

    Looking for lots of inventive egg recipes ladies!! We are getting heaps of duck and hen eggs daily and don't want them going to waste. Lunch ideas would be especially helpful that I can send to work with hubby

    Hmmm I usually just make egg salad, curried egg, omlettes, quiches etc with eggs, sorry I haven't given you anything fancy shmancy, I'll be interested in what others can suggest as I also get lots of eggs from my parents farm.

    "egg mess" sorta like scrambled eggs with leftovers chucked into it

    plus sell them at work (or your DH's) for $4/doz! make the chooks pay for themselves!

    Not a lunch idea but still tasty.. Vanilla Slice Erin I love the Taste website, and I get the Good Food Magazine delievered to me each month. It's only $50 a year but well worth it, I cook so much stuff out of them

    I have one and a half dozen eggs in my fridge that I need to use up. My cupboard and fridge are very bare, so I cant make zucchini slice (aww ) or quiche, etc. I have no pastry, no food processor to make my own pastry even though I do have butter and flour.

    I hope to make some cupcakes and put them in the freezer, but that's going to be a lot of cupcakes! I don't have much of a baking tray, only 1 round cake tin and standard 12 hole muffin tray. I don't even have a mixmaster machine to mix up batters! (what I had in our old place is still at a friend's place, hours away, and I'm pretty sure some of it isn't even there after she cleaned out most of our old place for us, before the landlord locked her out).

    So, any more ideas as to what I can make? These eggs need to be used very soon. I can do a little bit of shopping maybe later or tomorrow, but not a whole lot. Thanks.

    I don't have much to put in it at the moment! I think I will definitely have to go shopping for some pastry, bacon, vanilla (cos I'ce got less than a teaspoon in the bottle!), and some other things. Some more flour wouldn't go astray either.... I'vee chopped up some butter and its softening on the bench. In the mean time, I guess I had better do a stocktake as to find out what i *do* have.

    All of the above!

    I am going to try my hand at making pasta! Have some frozen chooken mince, so will have a go at making tortellini. At least I have a good size bench to work on, some big mixing bowls and a rolling pin! Wish me luck! Also saves me putting the oven on for cupcakes, being that it is 36 degrees here!

    Sauces/dressings are a good way to use up eggs... Caesar dressing, mayos etc.
    Custards
    Ice cream

    Netix - if you don't have a food processor you can still make pastry by hand, it is really quick and easy. Good luck with the pasta, sounds yum!

    My pasta is sitting in the fridge cooling down. Dd and Ds helped me knead it. They had a ball.
