MINNEAPOLIS — As families prepare for the busiest cooking and baking season of the year, shortcuts in the kitchen are essential. The variety of entertaining occasions requires smart menu planning and shopping. While special dinners are top of mind, everyday dishes easily can be prepared for family and guests by using staples with holiday leftovers for a variety of additional meals. Whatever the need, LAND O LAKES(R) All-Natural Eggs provide a nutritious and delicious way to warm hearts and stomachs, and to wisely use leftovers to save time in the kitchen.
Elevate leftovers to eggstraordinary heights LAND O LAKES(R) Eggs are the perfect complement to holiday leftovers, because they are versatile, nutritious and offer wholesome flavor. LAND O LAKES(R) Eggs are backed by more than 90 years of experience in delivering premium, quality dairy foods that families can trust. The company's eggs are produced by hens fed a high-quality, whole-grain diet rich in corn and soy protein, with no animal fat or animal by-products. Eggs are gathered at the peak of the hens' egg-laying cycle, which can make the eggs even more nutritious and delicious.
The Test Kitchen experts at Land O'Lakes offer these recipes using holiday meal leftovers, such as bread, turkey and ham, in "eggstraordinary" ways to make the most of your previous meals.
One of the most common leftovers is an abundance of turkey meat. The Turkey Cheese Strata uses extra turkey and sandwich bread to make a meal for a family breakfast or brunch. Flavored with onion and topped with cheddar cheese and bacon, this is a dish you can prepare the night before and bake in the morning to save time. Serve it with sliced apples and oranges for a colorful plate and added nutrition.
"We know holidays can be hectic in the kitchen," said Becky Wahlund, Test Kitchen Director at Land O'Lakes. "You don't have to start from scratch to provide food your family will enjoy."
