Toads on a Log

So this morning I made one of the tastiest breakfasts around. It’s an old favorite from childhood my mom use to make. It’s called Toads on a Log, anyone else ever eat it?

Butter both sides of a slice of bread and cut a whole in it using a cookie cutter or small glass. Stick it on a skillet set to medium-low heat and crack an egg into the middle. Turn the bread/egg over after a couple minutes and cook until egg is to your liking. Oh yeah, and cook the little circle you cut out earlier – it goes on top when you’re done. Voila! Toads on a log  - Delicious!!

Sorry I don’t have a picture… I ate it before thinking I should’ve taken one. But if I did you’d see why it’s called toads on a log. Actually, now that I think about it, it looks nothing like toads on a log. Where the heck did that name come from?

    Very interesting. I’ll have to try that someday. I have never heard of it. But if you say it is good, I believe you. Is it better than the chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-A?

    I won’t pop your bubble, and I won’t tell anyone else, but the name is “eggs in a nest”.

    Toads on a log (or ants on a log) are raisins places on top of the pb on a celery stick.

    first of all you are super-cool for having a ‘mobile version’ of your site…undoubtedly a service just thrown in there by wordpress.

    secondly, I have had ‘toads on a log’ but when I made it, I called it ‘that breakfast in V For Vendetta.’ yummy.
