Roasted poblano pepper stuffed with seafood eggs
Roast


Roasting
One of the many things I like most about this website is the impetus it has given me to revisit the recipes I've cooked my way through over the years. Some of recipes are ones I've modified from magazines and cookbooks; some are ones I've created from different areas of inspiration; and some are from my mom. Many years ago as I was getting ready to move into my first apartment in Boston, I had my mom write down all my favorite things that she cooked onto notecards that we put into a recipe box. Seafood Eggs was something she used to cook for breakfast brunches around the holidays or for the two of us when my dad traveled, so we could have something special - just the two of us. And oh so decadent! Living in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, shrimp and crabmeat were not on anyones regular diet in those days. But my mom found a fish store a 45 minute drive away that flew in fresh seafood every day. When I made this last night (since my husband is out of town and I was having a home alone dinner) what a rush of memories! And they tasted just like I remembered them tasting as we sat in our kitchen all those 40 years ago. The only changes I made was to roast a poblano pepper to make a home for the eggs since I love the combination of eggs and roasted peppers and I added the cheese. Hope you enjoy them as much as I have.
