My husband has a few customers at work, and I give some to my neighbors if they need them, but the majority of my excess eggs are donated to our local chapter of Feed Our Vets. I can't stand seeing eggs (or any food) go to waste, and this has been a perfect way to make sure that doesn't happen, but the best part is that I'm able to give back just a little bit to the people who have helped protect our country. :)
 
Oh yum. And also, YUM. And your recipes are available where, exactly? 😉
I am sure all of those can be googled.

But for pound cake... most recipes that pop up only ask for 3 eggs, or maybe 5.... crazy..... keep looking until you find one that asks for at least 10 eggs, then add a few extra. ;)
 
I sell my eggs.

We have tons of eggs here right now, how about you? What do you do with your excess eggs? We collect and cook what we can, hatch a few, and the rest we give away or feed back to the birds.

Your poll is missing "all of the above" option. I've done everything but sell them. Cant bring myself to take money for giving someone food. Maybe part of the reason I'm always broke?

Just added "all of the above" to the poll! :D
 
You can put most anything in this quiche, sometimes I make a bacon and spinach quiche. I like it because I can use a lot of eggs. Make sure you have a large pie dish. You can make a crust or I sometimes add a cup of Bisquick to the mix instead of making a crust and also I add a little salt and pepper.
