Eggs for Supper?

I used to blog here about thriftiness in NYC, but I think I’ll relocate everything to Tumblr. I’ve been underemployed for two years, so the transition from full-time job with benefits to part-time job plus freelancing work has led me to be search out frugality.

First of all, I don’t even use the word ‘supper’. But when you’re eating eggs after four o’clock in the afternoon, it sounds right. I had seen a recipe for Bell Pepper Eggs-in-a-Hole from Martha Stewart’s ‘Everyday Food’ (which is one of my favorite sources for recipes) a few months ago, but it wasn’t until looking through a fridge slim on contents while being snowed in that I remembered it.  And it was so delicious.

My sister shared her go-to salad dressing, which I whisk up now routinely. It’s equal parts olive oil and white balsamic vinegar, plus a little sweetener. For a generous salad for two, I used one tablespoon of each and a pinch or two of sugar-in-the raw.
