You may have heard that Sunday was Mother’s Day. (If not, you’d better call your mom. Right now. And apologize for missing Mother’s Day.)
My mom is still in Arizona so I didn’t get to spend the day with her, but we are lucky to have Ryan’s family close by. We hosted a little brunch to celebrate Mother’s Day with Ryan’s mom and grandma.ย
I knew I wanted to try to make something in a ramekin. Mostly because I wanted to buy some ramekins. (I’m tricky like that.)
So, I picked up white ramekins at Pier One and tried my hand at these baked eggs at Kayotic.
Not only are they super cute and fancy-looking (in my very non-fancy opinion), but they also tasted good and were simple and fast. I filled mine with onions, garlic, tomatoes and fresh mushrooms.ย
Simply sautee the ingredients in olive oil, put them in the bottom of a ramekin and top with a broken egg. I baked them for about 15 minutes and voila – yummy little eggs.
I rounded off the meal with hash browns, bacon and our favorite…ย Paula Deen’s Baked French Toast Casserole. (You must try this recipe. It’s so good.)
All-in-all, a pretty yummy little meal to celebrate the women who birthed and raised my husband and father-in-law. Accomplishments, people!
(I pulled out the chalkboard chargers for little Mother’s Day messages.)
Oh yeah, and in case you wonder what’s next in ramekin-land –ย
Hope you had a lovely Mother’s Day, too!

You are so creative with your table! I’m going to try out this egg recipe for my StepMom’s birthday/Father’s Day brunch, it looks yummy! And Paula Deen is my all-time favorite woman to go to for recipes, especially THAT french toast casserole. It’s probably one of the best I’ve ever had, SO good!
And yes, I know I’m WAY behind in reading these, ha…..

I have four ramekins that I’ve never used. But now I feel like I should rectify that – these are so cute, Kim.

Jenny @ Anything Pretty says
I love making things in ramekins! I made a triple layer mousse one year that took a million years to construct but it was oh so good. You always know how to throw a party… and this one is no exception. So yummy looking!
Carrie @ Hazardous Design says
Yum!
You’ve got me wanting to host a brunch now.
Leigh says
I love how smart (sneaky) you are. I found some pretty colored ramekins recently but passed them by. I love my white ones, I have 2 sized that I purchased at the W-S outlet, I used them for some dip over the weekend.
Shannon says
That’s totally something I would pull. Food gets made based on weird factors like serving dish shape & color. And for the longest time, I didn’t actually care if it tasted good as long as it looked awesome. Luckily I’ve come a long way. And btw, you’re such a good daughter-in-law, it looked awesome and I’m sure your inlaws think you’re the bees knees.

Ramekin is such a fun word! Your brunch set-up was beautiful!
Does this french toast bake crisp up well? I’ve tried 2 different recipes and they both ended up soggy..could also be because I can’t cook..just curious!!

The chalkboard chargers are genius. And I love your sneakiness with the ramekins. ๐
yeoldesandwichshoppeva says
1) I absolutely adore the chalkboard chargers. How have I never seen those before?!
2) Ramekins are too cool for school! I have some, but I always forget about them. I’ll have to remedy that for breakfast.
3) Paula Deen has a french toast casserole recipe?! Must. Try. Immediately. I just know that my life needs more buuddah!
Jenn says
You are making me hungry! I definitely want to try some of those recipes!
Melinda says
Hostess with the Mostest! Your brunch looks fabulous. Love the eggs! For dessert did you hand them paint brushes and say, “No dessert till a room is painted”? ๐
LizzieBeth says
It is so funny you posted this because I decided for next year I wanted to host a Mother’s Day brunch for my mom and my two sisters-in-law (it was not happening this year as the couch is currently in the kitchen ;).
I am book marking this recipe and will return to it in about 11 months ๐

Everything looks simply perfect sweetie. Only one thing missing though ๐ and that would be your mom! But I’m happy we had time together in April. Hope you had a fabulous Mother’s Day with my grandpugs!

What a nice brunch. I love the chalk board chargers idea. I will start my search for inexpensive chargers and make some of these.
