Jenn at Frugal Upstate is hosting a series this month on frugal foods. Last week’s “focus food” was eggs. I’m a bit late getting this up, as I didn’t think I had anything new to add, but I came across a recipe in my recipe software this morning that is a perfect fit. 🙂

This is not a family favorite, or even a recipe I’ve ever made before, personally. It comes from The Ellis Island Immigrant Cookbook, compiled by Tom Bernardin. (Sorry for the imprecision of the recipe. The original was like that.)
