LADIES' BRUNCH

Today we had our first Ladies' Brunch. The men get together on a regular basis for breakfast and prayer for other men. (We get quite a kick out of their plans.) They work on teams and take turns making the breakfasts. Soooo today I had the brunch at our house and it was fun! We are working on a ladies' prayer list and have plans for brunch on a regular basis too. Our emphasis is witnessing to and praying for ladies. We need encouragement and prayer support from the others. There were 12 of us stuffed around our table. I could make the table bigger so we could all fit comfortably but there isn't enough room to do that. So next time and hereafter, we will meet at the church with two different ladies treating us to brunch each time. I had my camera ready but with all the hub-bub, didn't get any pics. Maybe next time!

I did not get pics, but I have a yummy recipe. This one is from Sandy Mawhinney who is a super duper cook. I posted some of her recipes here before.

Mediterranean Layered Pie
Saute 1 chopped onion and 1 clove garlic (minced) in 1 T. butter
Mix together 1 - 10 oz. bag of spinach or broccoli (I cooked the broccoli)
8 oz. sliced or shaved ham
8 oz. mozzarella cheese (grated) (I used cheddar - so much for following the recipe, eh? Sorry Sandy!)
1 red pepper chopped
4 beaten eggs

Put into a deep dish pie plate. Bake at 400 degrees (I hate that Blogger doesn't seem to have the little degree sign!) for 35-40 min.

I doubled the recipe and used a 9X13" pan. Sandy calls for this in a pie crust, but she is one of the few people I know who can afford to eat a pie crust with this. They say "never trust a skinny cook" but she is absolutely trustworthy when it comes to cooking. If you could visit her B&B, you'd know what I mean! And I didn't get this recipe from Sandy, but from my sister, Cheryl, who got it from Sandy. If you haven't tried it, Cheryl, you'd love it!!!
