we have 2 dozen eggs that need using. we aren't "egg" eaters but eat recipes w/ eggs as an ingredient. Does anyone have a recipe that uses a lot of eggs? I don't want quiches or breakfast egg dishes. something like flan is good, a lot of eggs but not eggs ... things of that nature are what I'm looking for ... thanks

You could make flan with the yolks and angle food cake with the whites. You could make the flan now and freeze the whites for use in an angle food cake later.

Mexican Flan

I N G R E D I E N T S
1 cup sugar
6 egg yolks (room temperature)
2 whole eggs (room temperature)
24 ounces evaporated milk
3/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

I N S T R U C T I O N S
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Place the 1 cup sugar in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and caramelize over medium heat At first, swirl the pan over the heat, but do not stir (this will cause it to clump). After about 8 minutes, when the sugar has begun to liquefy, stir with a heavy spoon. When the caramel turns light brown, quickly (and carefully burns are painful) pour into a 2-quart, high-sided metal flan mold. Tip pan so caramel coats the bottom and up sides of mold. Work fast; caramel hardens quickly.

Using a whisk, beat together the egg yolks, eggs, evaporated milk, sugar and vanilla. Mixture should be well-blended but not frothy. Pour into the caramelized mold. Cover with the flan mold lid and secure with clips. (this prevents the top from overcooking). Place the mold in a larger pan (such as a roasting pan) and pour in about 1 1/2 inches of hot water.

Place on the bottom rack of the preheated oven and bake for approximately 65 minutes. After 55 minutes, open the oven door and test the flan by inserting the thinnest knife you own into the middle of the flan. Do not go all the way to the bottom. If large curds cling to the knife the flan is not yet done. Give it about 10 minutes longer. If just a film of custard clings to the knife, the flan is done. When you jiggle the mold, the custard should shimmer in the middle but look cooked around the edge.

Remove from oven and cool mold on a rack. The flan will continue to cook for about an hour after being removed from the oven. During this time it will set up. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before unmolding.

Bacon and Egg Slabs
Grease a rectangular oven dish and line with flaky pastry. (I use ready rolled)
Fry off trimmed and diced bacon and allow to cool on paper towels. Place in dish and make wells to drop 4-6 eggs in. Pierce the yolks and cover with another sheet of pastry. Pierce the pastry several times with a knife for steam vents. Brush with milk.
Bake in a 180C oven for 35-45 minutes until the pastry is golden.
Turn out and allow to cool a little then cut in 75mm squares.

Frittata. Ham.
6 eggs beaten.
1 teaspoon oil.
½ cup grated cheese
200g ham.
Tomato.
Salt and freshly ground Black Pepper.
1 table spoon of Fresh chopped parsley.

Heat the fry pan and add oil on a low heat and add cheese, ham, tomato, salt and pepper to beaten eggs and stir in.
Pre heat the grill.
Pour in the egg mixture and cook for 5 minutes. Do not stir.
To finish cooking put under the preheated grill until the top is brown.
Serve sprinkled with the parsley.
Cut like you would a pizza.
Both of these can be frozen for a later date.

Lucky ducky! Well, I would also suggest making some omelets but I imagine you'll get sick of those pretty fast if you're stuck eating them every day. So, I think you should start baking; cookies, cakes, flans, muffins etc.(most cookie and cake recipes call for 1-3 eggs at most so you'll really have to bake up a storm to use up all your eggs. Flan's use lots of eggs but don't feature your required ingredients of peanut butter and chocolate). I would bake some and keep it in the freezer, give away some baked goods to your friends, neighboors and family and keep some for your self. In addition to all this baking I would also contact a homeless shelter or church in your area to see if they will accept donations of your farm fresh eggs. I'm guessing there are some people out there who would love to have some fresh eggs. GOOEY CHOCOLATE COOKIES * 1 (8-ounce) brick cream cheese, room temperature * 1 stick butter, at room temperature * 1 egg * 1 teaspoon vanilla extract * 1 (18-ounce) box moist chocolate cake mix * Confectioners' sugar, for dusting Preheat oven to 350 degrees.In a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Beat in the egg. Then beat in the vanilla extract. Beat in the cake mix. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours to firm up so that you can roll the batter into balls. Roll the chilled batter into tablespoon sized balls and then roll them in confectioner's sugar. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet, 2 inches apart. Bake 12 minutes. The cookies will remain soft and "gooey." Cool completely. COCONUT FLAN * 2 cups white sugar * 3 tablespoons water * 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice * 5 large eggs * 1 can sweetened condensed milk * 1 can unsweetened coconut milk * 1 tablespoon vanilla extract * Hot water, for water bath * Berries, for garnish Preheat oven to 300 degrees Place sugar in a small saucepan and gently add the water and lemon juice. Do not stir. Bring the saucepan to a boil over medium-high heat, without stirring, until the mixture turns golden brown. Pour caramel into a large ramekin, filling it 1/4 of the way up.Beat the eggs in a large mixing bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and blend until combined. Pour the custard into the ramekin on top of the caramel.Place the ramekin in a large roasting pan or baking dish and carefully pour hot water into the pan around them, 1/2 way up the sides, to make a water bath.Bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes until the flan starts to wiggle in the ramekin when gently shaken. Remove the ramekin from the water bath and chill them in the refrigerator for 2 hours before serving.Run knife around the edge of the ramekin. Invert on a plate and garnish with berries.

You could make cookies or a cake, that always uses a few eggs, and you can't taste them. You could also add one egg to ground beef when making hamburgers - it helps the meat stick together when cooking.
