I've been a huge fan of a BIG breakfast ever since I was a kid. But when I first became a Mom I was lucky if I had enough time to just grab a bowl of cereal. Later, when my daughter was about seven years old, I made my first BIG breakfast, and it was this egg bake recipe. We made it together and she was so excited to see how it turned out that she turned on the oven light and watched it bake. Fifteen to twenty minutes into the baking time I heard her yell my name and I came running thinking the egg bake was burning. Instead, she screeched that I had to come look because the egg bake was getting so puffy she thought it was going to explode! And THAT is how this delicious egg bake got it's name!
