Italian Sausage & Leek Scramble

This hearty scramble will fill you up to start your day.

Ingredients:
8 eggs
8 ounces Italian sausage links
¼ cup milk
½ cup chopped leeks, white and light green parts only
½ Walla Walla sweet onion, peeled and diced
1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
1 tablespoon freshly-chopped parsley
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper

Method:
1. Heat the butter or oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the sausage links and cook through, breaking the sausage into small chunks with a wooden spoon. Then, add the leeks and onion and cook, stirring constantly, for an additional 2-3 minute, until both are softened and fragrant.

2. Crack eggs and break over a shallow bowl. Break yolks with a whisk or fork, then whisk together with the milk, seasoning generously with salt and pepper. Add eggs to the frying pan and mix with the chorizo and vegetables.

3. Cook, stirring occasionally until eggs are set and no longer runny. Gently mix in the freshly-chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Baked Cinnamon-Raisin French Toast

This homey recipe from The Pioneer Woman can easily be done a day ahead and chilled until ready to bake.

Ingredients:
1 loaf cinnamon raisin bread
Butter, for greasing the baking pan
8 whole eggs
2 cups whole milk
½ cup heavy cream
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
Topping:
8 tablespoons cold butter, cut into pieces
½ cup flour
½ cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup raisins

Method:
1. Cut bread into ¼-inch slices, then overlap the slices in rows in a well-buttered baking dish. Whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon, then pour the mixture evenly over all the pieces of bread, soaking the bread as much as possible.

2. To make the topping, combine the butter, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl and cut it all together with a pastry cutter. Stir in the raisins. Sprinkle the topping all over the casserole. Cover the pan with foil and refrigerate it for several hours or overnight.

3. Preheat the oven to 350°. Bake the French toast for 45 minutes to 1 hour for a softer texture, or longer for a firmer, crisper texture. Cover with foil for the first 30 minute of baking, then remove it for the remaining baking time. Serve individual helpings with butter and warm syrup

Smoky Scamorza Toast with Fried Eggs

Start your day off right by topping your avocado toast with some smoky fried Scamorza.

Ingredients:
2 slices of bread, such as this week’s Jewish Rye
8 slices Smoky Scamorza cheese
2 eggs
1 avocado, pitted and sliced
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste

Method:
1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and spray lightly with cooking spray. Once warm, place the cheese slices in the pan and fry lightly, flipping to fry each side. Remove and set aside, then crack both the eggs into the same skillet and fry until the whites are set, but the yolks are still runny.

2. Meanwhile, toast the bread in the toaster to your preferred setting. Then assemble your toast by layering 4 slices of the Scamorza to each slice, then topping with avocado slices and a fried egg each. Season generously with salt and pepper.
