Starting at the very beginning: 7 days, 7 recipes

I recently was pointed at the blog 'Dinner: A love story' where they're running a 'Seven Days, Seven Meals' challenge. Well, my children are picky and I don't feel that our dinners are in a rut (except when I cook only what J likes), but I love the idea of even more variety, so I'm not going to make seven totally new dinners, but I am going to try to make 7 new recipes in a week.

Today was day 1, and as the beginning, I'm told, is a very good place to start, that's what I did. With breakfast and this list of 18 snacks you can make in a mug in the microwave.

Coffee cup quiche for breakfast. Well, it was nice, and I do like to eat eggs for breakfast (and that was my resolution way back at the beginning of December - more protein, less starch at breakfast). It sort of felt a bit of a cheaty new recipe though, more like scrambled eggs with cheese and ham, done in the microwave, which I don't do often, and the bread didn't make it feel like quiche. Perhaps I should have added more milk to give it more of a custard texture.

Anyway, it was a nice reminder.
