It’s nearly indisputable that Sunday brunch is the best meal of the week, and what is brunch without eggs? Maybe you don’t think about your eggs a lot, but Nellie’s Free Range Egg company does!
Nellie’s Free Range Eggs come from the first Certified Humane® farm in the country where the hens have as much, or as little, access to outside as they want. I definitely care about where I get my eggs from!
I was raising my own backyard chicken for about 7 years. My chickens were always free-range and cage free, and they always provided my family with plenty of eggs. I had to give away my sweet chickens last September (to another cage-free farm) after our neighbors called the police on us for the fact that our chickens wandered onto their property and were in their mulch pile. Can you believe it? I can’t either! I refuse to have chickens if they have to be in a cage. They don’t deserve to be locked up.
This is my favorite and most loyal egg layer, Gloria
As for cheese? The best tasting and most luxurious cheeses come from Cabot. I love them all!
Both Nellie’s Free Range Eggs and Cabot Creamery Co-operative are B Corporations , meaning they meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance. That is why I have decided to use them together to create a delicious Sunday brunch meal.
For Sunday brunch, I always try to create a main dish that includes both eggs and cheese. My favorite is a ham & egg casserole that my grandmother always made, and my family loves it. I decided to create it using Nellie’s Free Range Eggs and Cabot Cheese. The recipe is below.
