Looking for an easy recipe that uses lots of eggs, the whole egg.

Thank you. Got it. Carrots are sweet, how does it taste with chard, kale or spinach? Thanks, Sylvia

I'm sorry I ment chard and collards! Not kale! Oops, although I'm sure that wouldn't be much different. We have Swiss chard and a collard tree in the garden (collard trees never go to seed! Someone cut off a joint of there collard tree ad gave it to us to stick in the ground and it took off!). The chard you can't really taste. I cut it and the collards up really small before I mix it in. Collards are a bit more bitter, so I usually do carrots and apple or banana in muffins I put collards in. Like I said, all my daycare kids LOVE my muffins and my son and husband do too. I also made them (just carrot) for a yard sale I had so my son could sell something and a lady told me she didn't like carrot muffins, but would try them. She left and came right back and bought a bunch more and gave me her email so she could have the recipe. She got enough to bring to a friend she was going to visit.

*oh, forgot to say anything about the spinach! Spinach is also on the sweeter side, I can't even taste it when there is spinach. I can taste a hint of chard and like I said, collards are more bitter so I do that with banana or apple and the carrots

Banana Bread
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 eggs, beaten
2 1/3 cups mashed overripe bananas (5?) I used four and it was fine.
Directions
350 degrees F
Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar. Stir in eggs and mashed bananas until well blended. Stir banana mixture into flour mixture; stir just to moisten. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
Bake in preheated oven for 60 to 65 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into center of the loaf comes out clean. Let bread cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack.

I made them into muffins cooked for about 20/30 mins. Insert toothpick.

Got yours too, Sparkky. Thank you. Sylvia

PS: Welcome. You will love this group. If you ever get frustrated, just go surfing and you will find something to interest you.

BTW: Did you know if you click your name at the top right of the page it will show you all kinds of things? The Private Messages and Subscriptions has come in very handy for me. I inadvertently pushed Junk when I meant to move some notices from this group to my Backyard Chickens folder and haven't been able to figure out how to fix it. I come here and all the notices that would be in my email are here under Subscriptions. Sylvia

Thank you, I've been enjoying this site immensely. I lose track of time so easily, reading articles or clicking links and getting lost on another site/blog reading everything there. Hubs laughs at me and calls me an addict. I didn't think it would happen so fast. I go out to check on my mc nuggets and find myself coming back inside hours later...

McNuggets! LOL My son and daughter were arguing yesterday about how many nuggets they could get from some of my babies. LOL I have little ones about 9 days old and some next to them that are 21 days old. I told them the little ones don't have enough meat on them to make one nugget each and the bigger ones might make 2. My son said the bigger ones should make 10 each and I told him only if you use the whole bird and that's not even a promise. LOL

I just posted a pic in "what breed/gender" of my 6 new ones, they're between 5 and 6 weeks old. I have a horrible time uploading photos so I don't have many on here. I've never eaten any of mine but I plan on trying to process some next year from any eggs that hatch. I get very attached though, so we'll see.
Back on topic, you can freeze your eggs for future baking. Crack them into baggies (in regularly used quantities) or ice cubes trays and freeze. They lose their consistency but you can cook with them still. Maybe scrambled would be Ok, I haven't tried that.
