|  |     When my [grandmother's] family gets together for a reunion, it's
    always at a retreat, and each family group is responsible for one
    meal during the weekend.  We seem to be drawn for Sunday morning
    breakfast every year, and we do pancakes with bacon.  (As an aside,
    we'll also use up any eggs left over from the morning before for a 
    few cooked-to-order breakfasts - first come, first served, of course ;-) )
    We use the pancake mix because:
	1) it's easy
	2) needs no refrigeration
	3) my family has no class anyway ;-)

    Brunch casserole (make ahead, the night before) and sausage, baked
    in the oven.  
    
    Or, continental.  I love bagels and cream cheese!

| 4040.3 | Brioches ? Kedgeree ? | XSTACY::GRAINNE | signal (SIGCUBE, SIG_IGN); | Wed Mar 29 1995 14:36 | 10 | 
|  |     If you'd like something a bit different, what about individual (mini)
    brioches filled with flavoured scrambled eggs ? You can make the 
    brioche dough the night before, allowing it a slow rise overnight
    in the fridge. You could flavour the scrambled eggs with mushrooms,
    chives, ham, smoked salmon (well, probably not for 40 ...) etc. I
    make this with a rich scrambled egg recipe, made with cream cheese
    and single cream rather than milk.
    
    Or what about kedgeree (sp?) with haddock, hard-boiled eggs, etc. ?

|  |     Brioche sounds interesting.  I don't see it in the index note (5.*)  Is
    it known by another name or spelling?

|  |     RE: Other names for brioche
    
    I'm afraid I've never seen it called anything else in European or
    Australian cookery books, but it could well be called something else in
    America. Its an enriched yeast dough, cooked in a special brioche pan
    with fluted edges, and with a 'top-knot' of dough on top. Standard 
    brioches are cooked in loaf-sized pans, you can also get
    individual-sized brioche pans which are about the size of the
    compartments in an extra-large muffin tin. They're sold in most
    'French' bakerys and some general confectionery (sp?) shops over
    here (Ireland.) You might possibly find something under yeast cookery 
    and bread baking (either in this conference or in a cookery book.)
    
    I have several recipes, mostly from French cookbooks or bakery-oriented 
    cookery books. I'll try to remember to bring them in tomorrow, if
    you're interested.

|  |     Thanks for the further discription.  Yes, if you are willing, I would
    certainly like to see a recipe.  It sounds like something that could be
    made ahead of time to some degree.  I am always on the lookout for new,
    easy or make-ahead, wholesome breakfasts for the kids.
