Whatever’s Handy Eggs: Cooking with Alan
Hi there!
I’m in the kitchen with my oldest brother Alan in chilly northern New York.
Al has been making these “Whatever’s Handy Eggs” for a while and they’re so delicious, I thought we should share his recipe.
He likes to microwave them, but you can just as easily cook them on the stovetop.
I will list the recipe here, but keep in mind the name of the egg dish. It is made with whatever ingredients are handy in your fridge and pantry.
Begin by chopping together 1 clove of garlic with a handful of spinach. Add a tablespoon of chopped cheddar. Then add 2 slices of ham and 1 slice of Swiss cheese cut into bite-sized chunks.
In a separate medium bowl whisk til frothy 3 eggs, a splash of milk, a tablespoon of mayo and 1 to 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Add the chopped veggie/meat & cheese mixture to egg mixture. Add 1/4 teaspoon of pepper.
Cover and microwave in one- to two-minute increments until set and cooked through. Stirring after each minute. Transfer to plate.
Top with a slice of American cheese. Melt in microwave. Garnish with parsley. Serve with hot sauce if desired.
This makes a hearty breakfast, lunch or even dinner. Absolutely flavorful and filling. As Alan says, “fit for a king.” 👑
Thank you, Alan, for sharing your recipe!
And thank YOU for watching!

Instructions please. Very lovely
@Mcrosko85 Please send me an email request: MadeBySueGiveaways@gmail.com and I will email you the pdf. Thank you for watching and happy sewing!
Anxious to make these. Great Demo, You do a wonderful job of teaching/explaining and the speak at which you talk is so easy to understand you and follow your instructions. Thank you so much. Wish I had found you sooner!!
@@marilyntrent3516 Thank you so much. I love these placemats. Have fun making them and thank you for watching!
What size quilt are you making?
@GuadalupeFlores I turned the blocks into a table runner. You could make any size quilt you like! Thank you for watching and happy quilting!
Just found this video. So surprised measurements based on mat when cut instead of using ruler.
@barbarahillegass use your favorite technique and happy quilting!
Love these instructions. Thank you so much!
@bobbieburrs You’re welcome and thank you for the kind words and for watching!
I just love your teabag pocket coaster idea! Thank you for sharing it. I love the fabric you used too. Where did you get your fabric from?
@landyshiroma Hi. The fabric is by Windham, and I think I got it from fabric.com but they’re out of business. Try asking at your local quilt shop or maybe Connecting Threads online. It’s called My Cup of Tea. If not available there’s probably something newer and just as cute! Thank you for watching!
Thanks so much for this video! I was semi confused on the process until watching your tutorial. Thanks again.
@lindapoe Yes, same here. I learned it from a book and it was a challenge. Much easier to learn the technique from a video. Thanks for watching!
This is a good tutorial. Can one make the blanket as a rectangle instead. If so how does on calculate the borders?
@christinemv Although I haven’t made a rectangle, it should work if you cut top and sides of your smaller fabric 10 inches smaller. For example if your backing/border piece is cut at 40” x 60” then the top fabric should be cut at 30” x 50”. Thank you for watching & happy sewing!
Thank you
@mardigra You’re welcome and thank you for watching!
I love your Sewing machine Mine is the same brand as yours but mine is older and it works really good The only thing I ever had to have fixed Sewing machine Is the Back and forward Button A friend Fixed it
@angelahart Thanks! I really like Pfaff. I bought a second one used, same model. It was not well loved but I did get it serviced and it works great now. Happy sewing and thank you for watching!
Your voice is annoying
❤
I've made several log cabin quilts over the years and oh boy it took me forever because of the joining on and piecing and cutting the strips as you go..... but this method works wonderfullly, I'm going to try this with the FQ that I have got...!! So out of the 4 pieces of FQs you ended up with 8 blocks?
@countkostaki Well you need 4 fat quarters plus an extra strip for the center. Also remember that if u have only one fat quarter of each dark, then you have to use a strip of your first dark on your final round as well. It’s clear in the video I think 🤪. It gives a somewhat scrappy look. Happy quitting and thank you for watching! 🧵🧵
Why don't you just whisk the dry ingredients together instead of " sifting" ...much easier.
@elainebernier sifting is what was taught when the recipe was shared with Nicole. Whisking is a great idea though 😊Happy Easter!
Oooh.... So easy to make the logcabin. I'm a beginner and say thank you for this tutorial. Best regards Nicki
@nicolescharein You’re welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting 😊🧵
Love this technique by far.
@yvonnerivera Yes, I love it too. Thank you for watching and commenting!
Thank you for the great demonstration. I look forward to using it.
@jerryscott I’m glad you like it. Thank you for watching!
Could you send along written instructions .
@kensmith please send me an email request: madebysuegiveaways@gmail.com and I will send the written instructions
Hello Sue… I have a problem that I’m wondering if you could help me with. I made this runner but decided to round the ends rather than have them squared. When I rounded them the pie dish I was using slipped so that now it has about an inch of the runner that I can’t use. I’ll have to make a wide border to cover those places. And then bind it. Do you have any suggestions as to remedy this? I’ll be cutting the border and binding on the bias. Thank you ahead of time if you can help me with this mess. btw… you have some beautiful quilt blocks. I’m really a newbie to quilting, a so they look kind of difficult, but I want to give at least one of them a try.
I’ll need about an inch and a half width of border. I hope this isn’t an imposition, Sue. If it’s something you don’t have time for just let me know. I’ll understand!
@louisevannorden. Is the runner already sandwiched and quilted? If you can, send me a photo or video to: MadeBySueGiveaways@gmail.com and I’ll see if there’s any advice I can offer. Good luck!
I had someone tell me about the technique today, but I wasn't really sure what she was talking about, so glad I found your video. Nice...
@Vanessa I learned this from a quilting book. It was a challenge to figure out from a book, so I thought the video would be helpful. Enjoy making your quilt!
This is brilliant. I am getting ready to make my first log cabin quilt and I was soooo dreading it but not anymore. I'm so glad I incidentally stumbled upon your video. Thank you!
@kathyanaya I'm glad you found the video! Happy quilting!
It’s a beautiful block! Thank you for demonstrating it. I have a question. Would it work out to make it with a full quarter inch? Every time I hear “quarter inch seam” I almost shudder!
@louisevannoden I mostly use scant quarter-inch seam allowances and have good luck. I have a video on that topic and try to reiterate in my videos. Happy quilting and thank you for watching and commenting!
This is best tutorial,so glad I found it. 👍😀 thank you
@vondarvock So glad you like it! Thank you for watching and commenting. Happy quilting!
Hi Sue, have you ever heard of the tuck method for finishing off your bindings? It’s So much easier than fiddling with the ends trying to get the lines on the ends to match up. It’s well worth looking up! And it looks just as nice, making the nice slanted seam that is achieved when piecing your binding strips together. . I’m making one for my sister, and we decided to use your method!
@louisevannorden Thank you for the tip. I will look it up and give it a try. Thank you for watching and commenting!
I love how you do the ends! All the other tutorials have the ends cut completely off to form the squared ends. That’s always bothered me because it wastes so much fabric! I really like how you add triangles instead. That’s how I’m going to do it from now on. Thank you for such a lovely demonstration. 💐
@louisevannorden Oh thank you so much. It was hard to get that part filmed to try to make it clear. I'm glad it's helpful and happy quilting!
Interesting in how to use you’re blocks right

@bettybrooks Thank you, Betty, for watching. Audio is a challenge for me 😊Happy quilting!
I love it, great tutorial. Thank you
@Alicia Thank you! So glad you like the video and happy quilting!
Hi Sue, I am a new subscriber and embracing your keen methods of presentation and instruction! My question to you is how/where can I find a full pattern to make a quilt with this gorgeous block? I've had no success yet searching the internet. Or, how does one calculate how much fabric in total one needs to make XX number of blocks for a quilt? Any offerings would be appreciated. Keep your excellent sewing content going. Thanks!
@paulajones Thanks for the great questions. A simple way to create a quilt with 12” blocks is sew 4 across and 6 down, total of 24 blocks. Add 3.5” border all the way around. Your quilt will measure 54” x 78”. There are fabric calculators online to explore. But you can take the measurements for 1 block, using the cutting measurements in the video for each fabric, and multiply by 24, if u decide to make 24 blocks in my example. I did a quick calculation for this example and came up with these results: Dark fabric 1.5 yards. Background fabric 2 yards. Light, medium, and border fabrics 1 yard. The options for a quilt layout are endless. This is just to give you a simple starting point. I actually like to browse through quilt books in the book store and library for ideas. It’s easier for me than online sometimes! Thank u for subscribing. I truly appreciate it and happy quilting!
Very precise! Fair play. Nice block x
@racheljones Thank you & happy quilting!
Thank you.
@celticbearwoman You’re welcome and thank u for watching!
Will you give the name of the washable glue.
@dianacontreras It’s Sewline brand water soluble glue stick. Available at Amazon and sewing shops
Beautiful
@dianechamblee Thank you and happy quilting!
Are you using a 1/2 inch seam allowance? Great video. Thanks
@susan I’m using my standard presser foot. The edge of the presser foot to the stitch line measures just under a half-inch at 3/8”. Then on the hanging loop I do about 1/8” using my quilting foot. Thank you for watching and have a great day!
I’ve been sewing for over 40 years, but have only been quilting for about a year and a half. This method looks so easy, I’m going to try a log cabin soon…other quilts to work on first!! Regarding the batik, I worked at a fabric shoppe that sold mostly batiks and I noticed that some, not all have a more vibrant side, so I use that as my right side, and some are identical so you could use either side. Thank you for your easy beginner friendly tutorial!!!
@anndalynn Glad you like video! I love the idea of working in a fabric shop and will most likely do that when I have the time. Thanks for the info on batiks. I think viewers will find it helpful! Happy quilting 🧵
