Estate 8 Scrambled Eggs
Serves 6
Time: 1 hour
Wine Pairing: I Love You More Than Wine Pink Shimmer
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons salted butter
- 1 yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 18 eggs
- 2 tablespoons half & half
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground pepper
- 8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated
Instructions
- Melt butter in a large saute pan or stove top griddle over low heat. Add onions and bell peppers and saute for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The goal here is for these to cook down and slightly caramelize.
- Crack eggs into a large bowl with salt, ground pepper and half & half and beat with a whisk. Add the eggs into the saucepan, stirring in with a rubber spatula every couple minutes as they begin to take shape. When they are solidified and just slightly runny, turn off the burners, add in the grated cheese and let the residual heat melt it. Remove scrambled eggs from the pan when the cheese is melted and serve while hot.

Meg’s Monte Cristos
Yield: 4 sandwiches
Time: 15 minutes to assemble; 15 minutes to cook
Wine Pairing: ONEHOPE Bloom Rosé
Ingredients:
- 12 slices white bread
- Mayonnaise, as needed
- 4 slices gouda cheese (not smoked)
- ¼ pound oven-roasted turkey, thinly sliced
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- ¼ pound honey ham, thinly sliced
- 4 large eggs, beaten
- 1⁄4 cup milk
- Pinch of cinnamon
- Pinch of nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Powdered sugar
- Blackberry jam
- Maple syrup
Instructions:
- On a work surface, spread two slices of bread with mayonnaise on one side each. Top one slice of bread with 1 piece of gouda and 3-4 slices of turkey. Top the other slice of bread with one piece of Swiss and 3-4 slices of ham. Create a triple-decker sandwich with a third piece of bread in the center of the two slices you’ve just topped with mayo, cheese, and meat.
- Using your hand gently press the sandwich a bit and cut the crusts off (this helps to pinch and seal the ends). Wrap tightly with plastic wrap, making sure to compress it a bit.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, ideally overnight.
- Heat the oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Combine the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a bowl.
- Unwrap the sandwiches, cut them in half on the diagonal, and dip them in the egg batter, to coat evenly.
- Gently place each sandwich in the skillet (one or two at a time), and fry, turning once, until golden brown and hot, about 5 minutes total, making sure to heat throughout.
- Transfer to a plate, and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve immediately with blackberry jam and maple syrup. Enjoy!
Test Kitchen Tips:
- While the recipe above calls for mixing ham and turkey, try some with just ham & Swiss and others with just turkey & gouda. It’s fun to see which combination guests love more.
- Additionally, since I make these the day before, I like to take them out of the fridge when I first wake up in the morning and then have my coffee, feed the baby and cats, and get my bearings. This helps to warm the sandwiches just slightly so they don’t take so long to warm through on the skillet.
