I like to split them with a fork, toast them with some butter and then make

a sandwich with veggie sausage and cheese. Yum.

I made a mistake on my grocery order this week and ended up with two big

packets of English muffins, which I don't normally eat (I meant to order

most of you are in the States, but I think you guys use these English

muffins for breakfast and maybe you have some ideas of what I can do with

them, other than just toast and jam or cream cheese?

 

Any suggestions welcome!

 

Thanks.

a little pizza sauce, a few fresh spinach leaves , some onion and a little

melted cheese on the toasted muffin ~~ very tasty

or a little hummus with shredded carrots and cuke, maybe a slice of tomato~~very

good

Make sure you split and toast them before using as an open faced sandwich.

They taste a ton better toasted. Spread with some crunchy peanut butter and

orange marmalade. The hummis on it sounds great to, but toast first. Also try

other sandwich spreads from our sandwich recipe folder.

 

 

 

As others mentioned, bake them with pizza sauce, toppings and cheese. It is one

of our favorite quick pizza meals.

 

Make breakfast McMuffin Sandwiches with them. Toast the bread and then spread

with Mayo or Veganaise, and add some scrambled eggs, cheese slice and vegetarian

baked " bacon " , such as Morningstar Farms. Cover with toasted top of the english

muffin and enjoy.

Before I discovered that I had a gluten allergy, I used to actually make them

from scratch, split them, toast them, and put lots and lots of butter on them

for breakfast. With a cup of tea, they are a perfect breakfast. You could add

some honey or jam, but I mostly like the holes all filled up with butter :-)

Make a mixture of equal parts cream cheese and mayo. Sprinkle in some dill

weed, minced dried onions, chives and seasoned salt to taste. Spread on split

and toasted English Muffins. Top with slices of cucumbers.

Hi

 

If you go to Google and type in vegetarian recipes using english

muffins you will find some interesting recipes. Some of them are for

making your own English Muffins but there are others

Judy, you stinker. It's time for bed and yet again you post a recipe I want now

now now now now.

 

Still love ya.

 

If you do eggs, cheese, something I've made for about 50 years now is an omelet

on an English muffin, first for Father, then the kids, now for myself. I mince

sweet red peppers and onions together. Saute  in a little butter, margarine or

oil in a small frying pan, add a beaten egg, cover and let cook till the egg is

cooked, over a low heat. Sprinkle with a little grated American or cheddar

cheese, or cheddar/Colby mix, then fold omelet over into a quarter. Toast

English muffin, lightly butter, then put folded omelet on the bottom, top with

the other half of the muffin. They make great portable breakfasts.

 

The other thing I used to make Father at least twice a week was eggs Benedict

minus the ham for me and with the ham for him. Lots of recipes online and you

can buy a mix for the hollandaise but don't! It is so easy to make and far

superior than the dry powder mix. The secret, if there is one, is to constantly

whisk the sauce as it is cooking, and if it breaks, I used to whisk in another

beaten egg yolk and cook till velvety.

 

I used to make muffin pizzas for the boys when they were still young. It isn't

traditional, but I would mix together grated mozarella with pizza sauce (make

your own or buy the jar stuff and tweak to your preference.) I like the

pepperoni or Italian sausage flavored TVP mixed in.

 

To serve, toast the muffins lightly then put a very generous blob of the cheese

and pizza sauce mixture on top and bake at 350*F till melted. I'd mix up 5

pounds of grated mozarella cheese with about a quart of marinara sauce and keep

it in the refrigerator to make quick breakfasts for the kids. It sounds like a

lot, but 7 adolescents can put down a lot of food and all pizza is, is cheese

toast with a little pizza sauce. Thankfully the used bread store used to sell

English muffins for .50 a package. Cheap.

 

Now my preferred way to do an English muffin is to toast, slather with real

butter fresh from the cow and put a nice dollop of honey on top. Or in place of

butter, natural peanut butter with honey on top.

Make egg Florentine? Lightly toast a split muffin (split side only) and top with

lightly steamed spinach, a poached egg and Hollandaise sauce, serve with a crisp

green salad.

Dear Jeanne:

I love your suggestions for English Muffins along with all the others that

people have posted. I have put pizza sauce and cheese on for years and

love them. I think they are great for kids. Just the right size.

 

Now, you spoke of making hollandaise sauce from scratch. I just purchased

a package type yesterday. Would you pleas share your " from scratch "

recipe?

 

Thank you so much.

Oooooooh, they all lovely! Thank you so much to you and everyone else who

has tickled my tastebuds. I now have to decide what to try first, think the

eggs Benedict may win - never thought of doing that, might even try it with

Quorn " ham " .

 

Thanks again.

[Guest guest]

Carolyn,

 

    I am dying to know--do you live in the U.S.?  Where do you buy your Quorn

" ham " ??

I have only ever seen the meatballs, ground crumbles, and several mock chik'n

products.

I have never seen " burgers " , sausages or " ham " Quorn.  I would dearly love to

try any of those afore-mentioned products (and I know the burgers and sausages

are available in the U.K.).  I just don't know how to go about purchasing them!

 

Thanks, if you have any info to pass on!

..... might even try it with

Quorn " ham " .

 

Thanks again.

[Guest guest]

i checked the site and it looks as if it is available in the UK, but not

in the US.

Bummer.

go to the quorn website people! email them and they will send you

coupons. Tell them a friend recommended you and you would like coupons

to try their products. they sent me over 5 dollars in coupons.
