We have lots going on today. It's Pink Saturday and we've been asked to share our favorite holiday movie with you. That's way too easy, so I'm going to cheat a bit and simply give you a visual clue. There will be no homework for anyone who can correctly name my favorite movie. Are you ready?
....and finally I want to share some ideas for holiday breakfasts with you. The recipes that appear below are easy to make but they produce dishes that are festive enough to make holiday meals special. I must admit I'm a bit spoiled when it comes to holiday breakfasts. The Silver Fox makes breakfast on Thanksgiving and Christmas morning, so the recipes are, of necessity, very straightforward and easy to complete. As an aside, they are also very easy to clean up after. Add one or several of them to the menu for your holiday breakfast or brunch and I know you'll be happy with the results. Here are some of my favorites.
Asparagus and Mushroom Strata
Eggs Florentine
Oven Baked Scrambled Eggs
Frittata with Spring Herbs and Leeks
Pumpkin Pancakes with Orange Caramel Syrup
Baked French Toast with Cardamom and Apricot Preserves
Breakfast Polenta with Chorizo and Queso Fresco
Smothered Eggs in Spoonbread
Swiss Onion Tart
Brussels and Liege Waffles

yummy,
you make me feel hungry.
have a lovely day.
For being simple and straightforward, they all look pretty good to me! And, quite frankly, any breakfast made by someone other than me is really good. I like to concentrate my efforts for meals later in the day.
Hmmm, let me think about your favorite movie.....it's mine as well. And we've seen it on stage several times. Pretty good there as well. "Christmas Story". Do I win something? Like a Red Ryder gun. I'll be careful with it.
Best,
Bonnie
thats a visual treat mary...all holiday bf entries looks so inviting n mouthwatering
Everything looks delicious. Your movie was a good choice for Pink Saturday. It's a classic.
the polenta looks delish! I have GOT to try this! <3
I'm now craving waffles, thank you : )
Love your movie choice and I especially like all the wonderful breakfast choices. Everyone of them made my mouth water.
Wow...the holiday breakfast round-up is stunning! The Pumpkin Pancakes with Orange Caramel Syrup
sound divine.
Every breakfast looks lovely, but a couple have particularly caught my eye. I will have to investigate further.
:)

These are lovely ideas Mary. Especially now that Christmas is coming and we will spend a few days at home.
Why just pick one? All those things together make up a kind of fantasy breakfast!

Apricot baked french toast...oh ...now you've got me going! I will have to do this one when we get our annual ice storm!
Oh My Goodness now I'm starving. Seriously, got to go and get some breakfast before I can finish my Pink Saturday posts.
Have a great holiday season.

What a fabulous post. Great ideas. Are you going to cook all this while wearing your pink bunny suit? :)
I hope you have good lighting from the leg lamp.
Delicious Mary!!!!
Everything looks really yummy!
Ohh--can there be ten breakfasts in a day so I can try all these recipes at once?
Christmas Story! How fun! I am so hungry for breakfast right now - those all look so delicious!
It's also a movie I love: "A Christmas Story".
Thanks for sharing all of these delicious breakfast recipes! I am just starting to think about what we should serve for a Christmas morning brunch we are hosting.
Thank you for all the recipes! They all sound so delicious. I love that movie! "You're gona shoot your eye out!!"
Blessings for a wonderful holiday!

I love A Christmas Story. Those are some great looking dishes and I'm not referring to the plates.
All your breakfast things look so good, especially since there was an emergency involding an overflowing toilet and a mini flood in my house, so I missed breakfast today. I'll have to look up that polenta recipe later. I love polenta and always have leftovers, so I bet this would be a great way to dress it up the next day.
That is such a cute movie! And gosh, can I PLEASE come have Chrismtas Morning Breakfast at YOUR house?!? Everything looks yummy!
Happy PINK SATURDAY!

What a yummy post, Mary! I'd love to have you come over and cook for me since it's my least favourite thing to do. I'm looking for an easy overnight breakfast for Christmas morning. I had one but lost it somehow. If you have a recipe on hand, let me know. Happy Pink Saturday.
Christmas blessings,
Sandi
Oh I love that Christmas movie too! So funny and cute! Your tasty breakfast ideas look heavenly! Happy Pink Saturday!
Hugs,

I can't believe I've never seen that movie!
And all those cassroles are wonderful looking and sounding. I have a traditional one I make Christmas day but I might have to mix it up with one of these!
Happy PS!

Such great looking breakfast dishes. They all look so appealing!

Everything looks so good. Would like to visit you .Have a good week. We could watch the movie and eat. Laura
The swiss onion tart is a must make! Thanks for the treat.
Licks & Wags, Niki
I love a Christmas Story. I havent seen it in years.
So many wonderful breakfast ideas!
Christmas Story is playing live at the Childrens Theatre in Minneapolis (cancelled tonight - verything is) and I have been thinking about seeing it live. My husband and son are downstairs watching It's a Wonderful Life, Kirsten is upstairs watching Polar Express and tomorrow's agenda is Love, Actually! We're a Christmas-movie family! Love all the eggs - but the eggs smothered in asppoonbread really warms me.
Hi Mary! Oh, I love that sweet movie!! You'll shoot your eye out!!
LOL I saw a picture the other day on the net of a grown up Ralphie and he is so handsome and those blue eyes are still shining! :)
Oh, thank you for all of these delectable recipes! I'll try to make a few over the holidays.
Thank you so much for popping in to see me.
be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Happy Pink Saturday. Thanks for visiting my blog. YUMMY! your blog is wonderful thanks for all the great breakfast ideas. Have a wonderful week.
Mary, you post so often that I end up missing great recipes so I love when you do a round up. So many yummy things to try.
Don't know this movie but I'll go back and look at the image again.
Oh Mary, you just HAD to go and show these delicious looking dishes. I will take one of everything!
A Christmas Story is my favorite too, I think I've watched it about 6 times this year. Normally I wouldn't watch it that much but I've got my 3 year old nephew loving Ralphie now too. Happy Pink and Happy Holidays Mary!
I treat myself to a "big girl" breakfast on Sundays because I take an extra long walk on the beach - your offering outdoes anything I've ever treated myself to!
Oh yes! Great movie! Your food pics are soooooo enticing. :-)
Must make homemade breakfast tomorrow morning. LOL.
Jillian
We watch that movie every year. And quote things from it throughout the year. We both had tears in our eyes from laughing the first time we saw the Bumpus Hounds and the turkey scene. Smiles for your week!
Judy
Ohhhh, your Strata and Frittata have me hungry again! Beautifully done, Mary - they all look delish!
OH my goodness....all those foods for breakfast sound so good!. We always have Christmas Morning rolls and sausage balls. I will be traveling this Christmas so I won't be making our Christmas breakfast but I have had special requests to bring the sausage balls with me. LOL....Happy "way late" Pink Saturday Mary.
Oops.....I forgot to say the movie is A Christmas Story.....one of our favorites too! xoxo
