Contest is now closed. Congrats to entry #358, Laura, who was chosen from Random.org

I am thrilled to be hosting this Review and Giveaway for Eggland’s Best Eggs. Not only am I reviewing this product, but am offering a $100 Visa Giftcard for my readers!

Eggs are a staple in my home as I bet they are in your homes too! I was so impressed to find that Eggland’s Best Eggs contain ten times more Vitamin E than ordinary eggs, 100 mg of Omega 3,  25% less Saturated Fat, and 200 mcg of Lutein, shown to contribute to eye health. It was also comforting to find that Eggland’s Best Eggs are produced by hens that are fed an all-natural, all-vegetarian diet. Basically, these eggs are more healthy than your typical egg and that rates GREAT with me!! With all the cooking and baking I do, I want nothing but the best eggs for my family.

I was not sure if I would be able to tell a difference when cooking with Eggland’s Best Eggs, but I will tell you, there was a difference, they tasted wonderful! I will definitely be a long time consumer of Eggland’s Best!

Here are three recipes of mine that feature eggs…

  7. Cat

    My fav. egg recipe is an egg bake my Grandma used to make…I still need to get the recipe from her. I do know it had a whole lot of eggs, crumbled sausage, cheese, and bread chunks on top and you leave it in the fridge over night. It is SO GOOD! I have tried a lot of these now that I live 12 hours from “home” but just can’t get it just like Grandma’s.

  8. Miss Grace

    I’m not a big egg eater myself, but it’s just about the only source of protein I can sell my 4-year-old on. He takes them scrambled or overhard (with the yolks broken)

  9. Kat

    My boyfriend isn’t one for breakfast but with my fast and easy egg recipe its one meal he never misses. Its foundation is a piece of toast (I prefer sourdough), I bit of mustard for a little tang, a slice of salami or peperoni (which ever we have that week), A slice of Swiss cheese for me pepper jack for him, topped off with a over easy egg.

    Its so fast and easy. Its also very customizable for everyone’s taste. Everyone also goes crazy for my mini quiches.

  10. Melissa

    My absolutely favorite thing to eat with eggs is simple, a fried egg sandwich. My dad made them for me as a child and now I make them for my family. I just love how simple and great eggs can be!

    My favorite recipe is to make sunny side up eggs with extra butter, breaking the yolk and mixing it with soy sauce and butter and finally eating it with a baguette 🙂

  21. Kenna

    My favorite recipe currently is an egg scramble with fresh veggies. I use broccoli, red pepper, and onions. Saute them in a little olive/vegetable oil and then scramble your eggs with the vegetables. Just before finishing, add some homemade salsa while cooking and then top the scramble off with more salsa! Easy and super fast dinner!
