Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large skillet. Add the egg mixture and cook over medium heat unitil the bottom begins to set, lifting the edges of the omelet and tilting the pan, allowing the uncooked egg mixture to reach the bottom of the pan. Cook until the bottom is very lightly browned and the top is set. Spoon half of the sauce on the omelet; fold the omelet in half. Turn onto a serving platter and drizzle the remaining cheese sauce over top.

For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup batter onto the hot griddle. Cook until the bottom of a pancake is golden brown and the edges begin to bubble. Turn over and cook other side. Serve pancakes piping hot with peach topping (recipe below) or your favorite fruit topping or syrup.

Pour into the juice mixture and return to boiling, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in the sliced peaches. Serve warm over pancakes, waffles, or French toast.

Melt the butter in deep 9" or 10" skillet with an oven-proof handle. (A good cast iron skillet is perfect for this.) Mix 1/2 cup sugar and the cinnamon together. Sprinkle the mixture in the bottom of the skillet. Scatter the apple slices over the sugar mixture. Cook over medium heat for about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs, milk, flour, salt, vanilla and the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar together. Pour the mixture over the apples in the skillet.

Beat the eggs lightly. Add milk, water, flour and salt to make a thin, smooth batter. Heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in an 8" skillet. Pour a thin layer of batter in the skillet, tipping the skillet in all directions to cover the bottom evenly with the batter. Fry until the bottom is golden brown and the top is set. Turn onto a clean kitchen towel or pastry cloth. Continue making more round thin "crepes", browning on one side only, until all batter is used. Blend the filling ingredients together. Place 1 tablespoon of the filling mixture on the browned side of each crepe. Roll each one, jelly roll style, folding in both ends to hold the filling inside. Lightly brown each blintz in the skillet in a small amount of vegetable oil, turning to brown evenly all around. To serve, sprinkle the blintzes very lightly with cinnamon, if desired. Top with a fruit sauce, fruit topping, fresh fruit, or sour cream.

Stir the ingredients together and bake in a preheated oven at 375º for 10 minutes. Top with the remaining cheese. Bake for 5 more minutes.

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, then spray with nonstick cooking spray. Spread each toasted muffin half with butter or margerine and about 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard. Place them on the foil-lined baking sheet. Lay a folded slice of deli ham, then a fried egg on top of each one. Top each with a folded slice of Swiss cheese. Place in the oven about 6" below the broiler and broil for about 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the sandwiches are heated through.
Preparation -
Spray an 8" or 9" round or square cake pan with non-stick cooking spray; set aside. Combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in the butter until the mixture is coarse crumbs. (Use a pastry blender or 2 knives.) Measure and set aside 1/2 cup crumbs for the topping. Mix the baking powder and baking soda into the remaining flour mixture. Add the buttermilk, vanilla, and egg. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until blended. Spoon the batter into the prepared cake pan. Sprinkle the reserved 1/2 cup crumbs over the batter. Bake in a preheated oven at 350º for 30 minutes or until the center of the cake springs back when touched lightly. Cool completely on a wire rack before cutting.

Grease and flour a 9" x 5" x 3" loaf pan; set aside. Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in large bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, milk, marmalade, oil and grated rind; mix well. Add the egg mixture to the dry mixture and stir, just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Stir in the pecans. Pour into the prepared loaf pan. Bake in a preheated oven at 350º for 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted in center of the loaf comes out clean. Let the baked bread cool in the pan, on a wire rack, for 10 minutes. Remove from the pan; brush the top with melted butter. Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Generously grease a 12 cup muffin pan with vegetable shortening or spray generously with non stick cooking spray. Cream the butter, sugar, honey, and eggs together in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt. Add the dry mixture, alternately with the milk, to the butter mixture. Use a large spoon or heavy spatula to stir the corn into the batter. The batter will be thick. Dividing the batter equally, fill the muffin cups. Bake in a preheated oven at 400º for 20 to 25 minutes or until the muffins are very lightly browned on top.
