Last month's recipes were all about different ways to cook chicken. This month's recipes are all about different ways to cook eggs.Given that, I would like to address the question of what came first: the chicken or the egg? We all know the debate of,"How did the egg get here if there was not a chicken?" My research says the egg came first. So where did the egg come from? That has been traced back to the dinosaur days. Birds evolved from feath-ered dinosaurs. Dinosaurs came from reptiles. Reptiles came from the ocean,and so forth.Back to the question; about 150 million years ago, small, feathered dinosaurs exist-ed and evolved into birds. Two birds that were not chickens created the chicken egg.So, there you have it, the egg came first!In addition to my bird theory, here is another tidbit of information about birds. A group of chickens is called a flock; a group of hens is called a brood; a group of chicks is called a clutch; a group of geese is called a gaggle; a group of quail is called a covey; a group of turkeys is called a raf-ter; and a group of crows is called a mur-der. Wow, I never knew that about crows!Now that we got that cleared up, let's try out these amazing recipes! These fried deviled eggs are fantastic. Who would have thought of deep-frying deviled eggs? The smoked sausage and spinach frittata is a change of pace from the normal egg casserole. |
