I am obsessed with this recipe. It is amazing and your whole house will smell fabulous while cooking. This is also one of my favorite recipes not because it is so delicious but because it takes 5 minutes to put together and is ready in only 1-2 hours. This is perfect before work or school on chilly mornings and perfect for guests!! And keeps well for up to a week, so you can have it on hand for many mornings. Bon Appetit!!!

This week I went to the beautiful Restoration Hardware Rooftop Restaurant for brunch. It had been on my list FOREVER. I tried the Scrambled Eggs with Creme Fraiche, chives, and avocado and I have to say, it was perfection. I had to find the recipe to share with you. It is such a special treat and you really need to serve it with some thick crunchy bread. The perfect dish to try for the upcoming weekend!!! Sooo delicious! Bon Appetit!!!
- 3 Eggs
- Bunch of green onions
- 2 tbsp Creme Fraiche
- 1 Ripe Avocado
- 1 tsp Sea Salt
- 1 tsp Ground Black Pepper
- 2 Slices of Bread (make sure it is crunchy and nice and thick)
- In a bowl, add three eggs, the creme fraiche, a little salt, and pepper, and then whisk with a fork until fully combined. Chop the green onions and add. I like to whisk the egg mixture with a hand blender.
- Peel the avocado, and then dice it into cubes. Put into a bowl, and add a teaspoon of sea salt and a teaspoon of black pepper, and then mash with a fork until it’s a bit smoother
- Add a tablespoon of butter to a frying pan over medium heat. When the butter starts to foam, add in the eggs and turn up the heat to medium-high.
- Stir the eggs using a spatula and continuously stir the eggs until they start to cook.
- Remove the pan from the heat and keep stirring the eggs with the spatula. Toast your bread and serve.
Every year around Easter I start to make Tomato Pie. It is always everyone’s favorite by far and it is so easy to make. Once you try it you will make it all summer long! I like to use sea salt and you can even add a little truffle salt to give it a little extra kick! Bon Appetit
Bake a 9 inch pie crust until brown (you can use a store-bought crust)
Roughly chop and squeeze tomatoes (to remove liquid) about 6 large tomatoes to fill the bottom of the pie shell (make sure they are firm tomatoes not soft!).
Sprinkle with basil ( just when you think you added enough, add more)
Add salt (I use sea salt) and pepper
Filling:
1 cup Mayonaise, 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese- Spread Over Tomatoes
Bake on 350 for 35-45 minutes until the cheese becomes bubbly.
