Today is the first day of bow hunting season! Yahoo! I'm on my way out to my stand before the sun comes up. My dad was the one who got me into bow hunting. My dad use to make "Eggs in a Frame" for me on Sunday mornings, but it was with Wonder Bread:) Here is my version made with eggplant!
1 wide eggplant, cut into round or square bread-like shapes
4 eggs
Coconut oil or ghee
Celtic sea salt and pepper
Makes 4 servings
NUTRITIONAL COMPARISON (per serving)
Traditional Eggs in a Frame= 194 calories, 11g fat, 7.9g protein, 15.5g carbs, 0.7g fiber (14.8g effective carbs)
"Healthified" Eggs in a Frame = 128 calories, 10.3g fat, 6.2g protein, 3.6g carbs, 2g fiber (1.6g effective carbs)

ReplyDeleteThanks girl!
ReplyDeleteThese look really yummy. My father would make them for me all the time too...of course with regular white bread and pretty much deep fried in Crisco...I get somewhat nostalgic and queasy at the same time just thinking about them...I think it's kinda fitting/funny that you mention bow hunting considering my dad calls these "bulls-eyes" (like the center of a target) :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure about the almond flour...probably. I have almond flour pancakes in my cookbook:)
ReplyDeleteI just bought coconut oil for the first time. Do you just spoon out some and let it break down with the heat from the stove? This recipe looks delicious, by the way! I plan on trying it in the morning.
ReplyDeleteYep Megan, just spoon it out and it will melt in the pan. It is SO good!
DeleteHappy eating!
I cant wait to try this!! I was just thinking about , what we called it growing up "Campers Toast", the other day! Was wanting some. I cant wait to have my "Campers Toast" agian!! woohoo... oh. and after droping the egg in the hole we would top it with cook sausage then let it all cook together!
ReplyDeleteGreat Idea! I hope you enjoy them. :)
DeleteGreat idea! How many carbs are in each one?
ReplyDeleteHi, I added it above. Thanks! :)
