Olympic Breakfast

Something totally different from me...

My kids have wanted to make their version of an "egg McMuffin" for a while now. We needed a circle to form the egg but didn't have one so I suggested the maple leaf in honour of Canada and Olympics. Here's our creation!! We made this as Olympic swimming was playing on the TV (we taped it since the actual event was happening around 2am our time). Our little town of 35000 has a swimmer at the games. He's 18 year old Alec Page and we watched him swim the 400IM right after eating this. He's 23rd in the world at the moment!!

[Bobbyj]

very creative!

[Lara]

That looks yum! Love the maple leaf egg! Very cool!

[Julia]

this looks so fun! great collage!

[Michelle]

Very cool! My kids just love it when we do things like this with their food. Somehow it makes it taste that much better.

[Monika]

Is this just egg white? I cant see the egg yolk, a very cool, fun and patriotic idea :)

[Graeme Dallas]

Mmmmm now I'm hungry, great fun pictures.

[Robyn]

Great idea. I'll have to remember this "trick"!

[KWind]

@rockinrobyn We thought of a better idea afterwards... use the cookie cutter to cut through the cooked egg. It would leave cleaner edges. You'd just have to make sure you cook it in a small pan so you have some height!

[Jolly]

Very neat idea and execution! All the best to your own homegrown swimmer :)

[michelle mcintyre]

Fun idea ...l had an egg on a muffin for breakfast this morning - mine was no where near as creative & fun as yours though:)

[Erica Waterer]

Brillant

[Edie]

Those are great. Go Canada.

[Sherry Owens McNulty]

Yea you! Yea your clever kids! Yea Canada! Yay Alec. We have a hometown hero swimming too... Missy Franklin... we are in love with her... BTW, am stealing this idea...going to look for cookie cutters right now!

[Lisa]

That is SO cool!

Fun collage...I actually discovered these a month or so ago: http://www.theyummylife.com/Egg_McMuffin
When I was doing my 2 week AF reserve duty I made a bunch and froze them and took one each day for my "2nd breakfast" (being pregnant, the early ceral breakfast didn't last until lunch time and I need the extra protein)...instead of English muffins I made biscuits since my 2¾" circle cutter was the same size as the jumbo muffin tin I used to bake the eggs: http://www.100daysofrealfood.com/2010/07/08/recipe-whole-wheat-buttermilk-cheese-biscuits/
