Eggslice
For moms that prefer breakfast-in-bed, try this breakfast sandwich recipe from Chef Bill McMullan of Eggslice. Eggslice pops up inside Shuck Oyster Bar, Costa Mesa five mornings a week and serves egg sammies with locally sourced, sustainable ingredients. The secret is the house made Chilli Jam, which brings sweet heat to your sunrise. Their recipe for the home cook suggests your favorite tomato-based sauce. “Our house made Chilli Jam is ideal,” says the chef. “We sell it by the jar if you happen to be in the neighborhood. Otherwise try mixing some organic ketchup with sriracha, try being creative.”
