Finding Support While Blogging

One of the best thing about being a blogger is the community of bloggers that I’ve gotten to connect with. I’m always surprised by how supportive and friendlyother bloggers are. People go out of their way to help each other. Mentoring beginner bloggers and passing on tricks that they’ve learned along the way are just some of the many ways bloggers support each other. Never have I ever felt that blogging is a competition, that I’m being judged for my blog not being good enough, or that my blog isn’t big enough. In all fairness, my harshest critic is probably myself!

One of the blogging groups I belong to, Food Bloggers Central, is hosting a Blog Hop! We’re hosting a virtual recipe circle where in addition to making one of our own recipes, we also make another awesome blogger’s recipe.

  • Author: Kelly Egan - A Side of Sweet
  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 35 minutes
  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4-5 1x
  • Category: Breakfast
  • Method: Oven
  • Cuisine: American

Ingredients

Scale

  • 9 eggs
  • 1/2 medium onion, diced
  • 1/2 colored pepper (I used 1/4 yellow, 1/4 red), diced
  • 1 cup of cheddar cheese, divided
  • A loaf of French bread

Instructions

  1. Whisk the eggs. Add the onion, colored pepper and 3/4 cup of cheddar cheese.
  2. Hollow out the loaf of bread. Make sure not to carve out too much to prevent leaking.
  3. Pour in the egg mixture and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
  4. Bake at 350F for 30-40 minutes, until egg is set. Slice and serve.

Tip: If you get overzealous and carve out too much of your loaf, pour the contents out into a bowl and patch the leak with a smear of cream cheese.
