While the calendar says otherwise, I’ve decided that it’s officially summer! We’ve had amazing 30 degree weather, and at any given point I am surrounded by the sounds of birds, sprinklers or lawnmowers {possibly a combination of all}. Then there’s the fact that the bulk of our days are now spent outdoors.
Yes, summer is indeed here! Let’s all celebrate with a BBQ!
Yet busy chaotic days and increased temperatures {not complaining about either, it’s just a life fact}, means that I get the cooking blahs quite often.
I don’t want to further heat up the house, so the change in season forces me to cook our favourites in different ways. In other words, your BBQ is perfect for more than just burgers and steaks!
This BBQ Breakfast Scrambler recipe is one such meal that I’d normally cook in the oven, it’s a favourite dish for us and I didn’t want to not make it despite not wanting to use the oven.
Another beauty of this BBQ Breakfast Scrambler recipe is that you can make it at home on the barbecue, or on the campfire out camping! We tend to make a lot of brunches when out camping and this recipe hits all food groups and is a one-dish meal {meaning less cleanup}.
In fact, all the ingredients fit right inside the Foil Pan so it can go wherever your outdoor summer adventures take you.
BBQ Breakfast Scrambler is a no-fail recipe that takes no time to prepare. When cooking, you don’t need to mix or fuss – maybe just the occasional peek to make sure it’s coming along nicely.
While I do call it a ‘breakfast scrambler’ we all know breakfast also makes the best dinner – so don’t hesitate to make this comforting recipe for any and all meal times.
More often than not I make this recipe with ham, yet you could use bacon or sausage – just swap out the ingredients.
For eggs I like to choose one of the many liquid egg varieties found at our grocer, easily spotted with it’s new and fancy packaging. Actually, my home and trailer is always stocked with Burnbrae Farms – it’s a key main ingredient which we eat daily!
Check out this easy BBQ breakfast recipe below – it’s egg-cellent!
Update: This is one of the most popular recipes here on the blog, whether making at home or for a campfire breakfast. So many LOVE this recipe, so make sure to give it a try!
