Crazy talk </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brunch-menu-help#post-887513 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 02:05:22 +0000 sunny 887513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would add pastries likes croissants and muffins. Yum! Sounds delicious :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brunch-menu-help#post-887474 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 00:32:39 +0000 lamariniere 887474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I loooove planning brunch. I try to do one savory, one sweet, one fruit and some bready items (croissants/rolls/biscuits) and then adjust depending on how many people you invited. </p> <p>Instead of quiche, I once made this spinach and cheese strata for a crowd and it was SO good. Bonus, you get it ready the night before, let it sit in the fridge overnight then bake the next day, so it frees up a ton of time. <a href="http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2009/12/spinach-and-cheese-strata/" rel="nofollow">http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2009/12/spinach-and-cheese-strata/</a></p> <p>This strawberry cake would be a good sweet, and so nice since it's strawberry season (I've made it too, delicious).<br /> <a href="http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2011/05/strawberry-summer-cake/" rel="nofollow">http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2011/05/strawberry-summer-cake/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brunch-menu-help#post-886970 Wed, 26 Jun 2013 17:45:07 +0000 IcebergMom 886970@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about things you can pick up like croissants, donuts, and maybe a fun fruit punch? Are kids coming? Maybe do a fun yogurt station where they could add different toppings? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brunch-menu-help#post-886879 Wed, 26 Jun 2013 16:41:17 +0000 dolphin 886879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My girlfriends and I threw a brunch theme bridal shower and had an omelette station and that was a hit! (her hubby volunteered to be the chef). Other items included assorted muffins, breakfast sandwich wraps, fruit salad.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brunch-menu-help#post-886850 Wed, 26 Jun 2013 16:28:09 +0000 MrsH 886850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You could always do a toast bar instead of bagels. Or doughnuts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brunch-menu-help#post-886824 Wed, 26 Jun 2013 16:17:27 +0000 aprk 886824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think you need some protein other than eggs. But for eggs, I vote quiche. Yummy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brunch-menu-help#post-886820 Wed, 26 Jun 2013 16:16:24 +0000 Foodnerd81 886820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love quiche at brunch so that's always my vote. And it's easy to customize-- like some with meat, some without for vegetarians. And it's really easy for me since I just use the pillsbury crust :) </p> <p>Maybe an extra meat-y thing, just a plate of bacon or sausage or something? But I'd be totally fine with exactly what you have listed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brunch-menu-help#post-886744 Wed, 26 Jun 2013 15:51:41 +0000 jhd 886744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think your ideas so far are great! What about a fruit tray or hash brown casserole? I also like the coffee cake idea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brunch-menu-help#post-886735 Wed, 26 Jun 2013 15:48:23 +0000 dagret 886735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Blueberry Buckle <a href="http://allrecipes.com/recipe/blueberry-buckle-2/detail.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://allrecipes.com/recipe/blueberry-buckle-2/detail.aspx</a> </p> <p>and this poundcake is AMAZING: <a href="http://www.marthastewart.com/332899/blackberry-swirl-pound-cake" rel="nofollow">http://www.marthastewart.com/332899/blackberry-swirl-pound-cake</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brunch-menu-help#post-886707 Wed, 26 Jun 2013 15:35:23 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 886707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Your menu is making me drool - I love brunch food :-) </p> <p>I'm horrible at planning stuff like this, but for an egg dish, I usually make this, since I can just throw it in the oven and be done w/ it. </p> <p><a href="http://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/impossibly-easy-breakfast-bake-crowd-size/b9412093-eaf2-46fd-bc9e-967ae7af7b6c" rel="nofollow">http://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/impossibly-easy-breakfast-bake-crowd-size/b9412093-eaf2-46fd-bc9e-967ae7af7b6c</a></p> <p>Maybe add in some coffee cake? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brunch-menu-help#post-886675 Wed, 26 Jun 2013 15:23:21 +0000 heffalump 886675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm being so indecisive about this brunch menu for LO's birthday. Here are some ideas I have. Please help! I want to stay away from bagels..... mainly because with bagels comes lox and that's pricey.
