Go here, http://www.jamieoliver.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=203884 and scroll down about 3 replies to “GeoffP”. He has posted several ways to both use & preserve eggs; it is much too long to post here. Some of the other replies are also useful for you.
Look up 6; 8; 9; 10; 12-egg pound cake recipes, then eat or freeze, or gift/donate the pound cakes once a week.
We generally get 6 eggs/day; and give away 2-3 dozen a week, still leaving a LOT of eggs for 2 people, so...
Egg foo yung, using 8 eggs (Egg Foo Yung II @ Allrecipes.com) once a week or so; boil and either devil around a dozen of them for snacks or egg salad; also add them to salads.
Egg shampoo/rinse; does wonders for hair.
And, finally: https://www.google.com/search?q=excess+eggs+ideas&aq=f&oq=excess+eggs+ideas&aqs=chrome.0.57j62.4790&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
Lmao! Good one!
How long has this been ongoing and how much longer do you expect it to continue? It appears to me even if you could prepare them for keeping into the future you still have a problem or are creating a future problem.
Possible solutions include asking the lady to maybe donate some to a church organization, a helping hand group, feed the needy group, etc. Or as another option do the donating yourself or find a buyer you can sell to.
Good luck...
plant them in the ground, and maybe you will get “eggplants” (really bad joke)
If you have good freezer space, several other ideas are:
Omelet muffins (look for Paleo recipes)
Breakfast oven baked French toast (look for Bed & Breakfast recipes)
Breakfast Burritos* (recipe below, found on a web forum)
Imitation Jimmy Dean egg muffins
homemade egg noodles?
*You can make breakfast burritos. Use a dozen and scramble them. Cook up some potatoes and cut into small pieces. Combine eggs, potato, 1 cup of sour cream, and a bit of salt and pepper. Lay out flour tortillas, and divide mixture to make about 15, a little less than 1/2 cup for each one. Cover with a half slice of deli ham and a sprinkle of cheddar cheese. Roll them up and wrap in Saran wrap. Put them all in a freezer bag.Freeze. Pop one in microwave to cook. They are great for quick on the go breakfast and cheaper than drive-thru.
And, what about your local food bank, or meals on wheels? Depending on the local regulations, of course.
Cook up a potatos and eggs feast!
In a large cast iron skillet add a small amount of oil.
Chop up one or two onions.
When cooked add a quite a few cut up potatoes.
When the potatoes are cooked cover the whole thing with a large number of scrambled eggs and let it simmer.
You can add a half cup of water to make the potatoes even more tender.
When cooked, place on a plate, Salt and pepper, add some Ketchup and hot sauce and enjoy!
Donate some to VFW and American Legion posts that have kitchens and serve breakfasts (just call and ask -- local commies might prevent such a donation).
If you know some local Boy Scouts, see if they would like a bunch for a weekend of meals.
not sure if anyone has posted this yet, but I make a similar dish called Confetti Eggs from a long-ago pampered chef party. This recipe seems to have similar ingredients except for the bacon, chili and dill spices. I use lowfat cheeses and turkey sausage. once done and cooled, I put it in plastic containers in the freezer. Hubby takes some to work - microwaves up just like fresh-made. With the meat, cheese and spinach, could easily make a fast dinner.

We’re quiche eaters at my house and each quiche has 6 eggs...easy recipe for quiche...use frozen pie crust (I prick and bake mine slightly before adding ingredients.) Fill up each piecrust with whatever you like, meat (ham, bacon, turkey, etc.), veggies that have been cooked and water pressed out of them, and cheese. Put 6 eggs in the blender, 8 oz. sour cream and a teaspoon of yellow mustard. Turn on the blender, blend briefly, then poor over quiche shell (this can either make 2 of the smaller crusts or 1 deep dish crust quiche.) bake at 350 for about 45 minutes.
Another recipe my mom made when she didn’t have a lot of grocery money...make a white sauce, add hard boiled whites of eggs, chopped, to the white sauce, salt and pepper to taste, spoon over toast or biscuits, then crumble hard boiled yolks on top. She called it eggs ala golden rod, which I always thought was the name she invented, but found out years later, that’s what the Betty Crocker recipe called the dish. And when I’ve made it for my guys they liked it too.
That will soon be knowledge than only an archaeologist would have.
Make friends with the Easter Bunny. He’ll tell you where to drop them off.
Aiii! How could I have forgotten to add mayo to my previous reply?!?
As for crepes, I suspect that if I dig deep enough in the chest freezer, I’ll find some fossilized crepes buried near the bottom.
