Sunday brunch was served up at my house this week! As I mentioned yesterday, I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter! offered to sponsor Mandi and I to throw a little brunch party (disclaimer: we received the following gift pack for free). Since both Mandi & I are brunch fanatics, we quickly accepted! The people at ICBINB sent us a great brunch gift pack to get us started including:
- Time saving tips and delicious recipes for a healthy brunch
- $25 grocery gift card for better for you food options
- I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter! VIP Kit
- Cuisinart Non-Stick skillet and spatula
We wanted a simple but tasty menu:
- Yogurt, granola & green apple mini parfaits
- English muffin bread egg sandwiches
- Breakfast potatoes
- Coffee
A few items were prepped ahead of time. I made the granola on Friday:
and the English Muffin bread on Saturday:
On Sunday, Mandi and Bryan were set to join Josh and I around 10 AM. I got started on the red breakfast potatoes using this ICBINB recipe. I chopped the potatoes and mixed them with the melted ICBINB, garlic and rosemary.
They went into the oven for 40 minutes and came out looking and smelling delicious:
Next, I put the sliced English muffin bread in the oven to toast up. I also cooked prosciutto slices and scrambled eggs (eggs, egg whites, milk and a little cheese) in two separate skillets. I made the eggs in the Cuisinart Non-stick skillet (this thing ROCKS):
I got the coffee started and the table set (some how I forgot to take a picture of the table :( ). As soon as Mandi & Bryan walked in the door, we were ready to rock and roll. I let everyone assemble their own sandwiches (eggs, cheese, prosciutto if desired) and had the parfaits and potatoes on the table ready to go:
Josh’s sandwich:
We had an absolute blast and the food was pretty tasty (if I do say so myself). After the first round of eats, Josh decided to cook up more eggs for a second round of sandwiches for himself and Bryan. The eggs came with a surprise:
