Easy 5 Ingredient Egg White Quiche

Want to mix up your traditional deviled eggs? Spice it up with this buffalo ranch variation! While only made with 4 ingredients, they taste like something special.

<h2 dir="ltr">Buffalo Ranch Deviled Eggs</h2>
We&rsquo;re swapping the traditional mayonnaise and mustard combo for an extra delicious combination - buffalo sauce and ranch dressing. The cooling ranch paired with the heat in the buffalo sauce works so well with our eggs. You&rsquo;ll want to repeat this combo over and over again!
We started by hard boiling eggs in the instant pot for a super hands off option. You can of course cook them any way you&rsquo;d like, but if you&rsquo;ve never tried pressure cooker hard boiled eggs, give it a try!
Our <a href="https://www.chinovalleyranchers.com/products/humane-harvest" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Humane Harvest eggs</a> come from hens raised in free roaming environments and fed a pure vegetarian diet consisting of premium grains, seeds &amp; meal.
<h2 dir="ltr">How to hard boil eggs in the instant pot</h2>
In the base of your instant pot, add the trivet insert along with 1 cup of cold water. Add as many eggs as you&rsquo;d like to hardboil.
<img src="http://cvr-env.eba-i8pyhtve.us-east-1.elasticbeanstalk.com/assets/1d0bc108-d236-4ba6-87f6-52650ec7f335?width=1200&amp;height=1500" alt="Buffalo Ranch Deviled Eggs 1">
Place the lid on with the vent sealed, and pressure cook on manual for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, place a towel over the vent and open it up for a quick release.
<img src="http://cvr-env.eba-i8pyhtve.us-east-1.elasticbeanstalk.com/assets/7b686e39-5dc2-4f9d-bbc5-43aa2b87566d?width=1200&amp;height=1500" alt="Buffalo Ranch Deviled Eggs 2">
Once all the pressure has been released, remove the hard boiled eggs with tongs from the instant pot and immediately place them in a bowl of water and ice. Once cooled to the touch, they will easily peel.

Be sure to store them in an airtight container.

All the components in these breakfast tacos can be prepped in advance. Cook the eggs slightly less if you plan to warm them in a skillet later so as to not be left with dry eggs.
The crispy cheesy tortillas can be prepped, stored in an airtight container in the fridge, then crisp in a skillet before warming.
The tomato/avocado mixture can also be prepared in advance, however you&rsquo;ll want to add extra lime juice to prevent the avocado from browning or simply wait to add to avocado until right before serving.

Breakfast Tacos with Crispy Cheesy Tortillas

The summer season is officially here. It&rsquo;s the perfect time to enjoy everything warm and sunny&mdash;including your breakfast! There&rsquo;s something inherently bright and cheerful about a perfectly cooked sunny side up egg. Its golden yolk shines brightly like the summer sun. This simple yet delightful dish is a great breakfast staple, but it may take some practice to prepare sunny side eggs just right. In addition, you may want to get a little creative with your seasonings and sides for the perfect complementary flavors.
The Perfect Sunny Side Up Egg Creating the ideal sunny side up egg is an art form. The goal is a white that has just the right amount of tenderness with a vibrant, runny yolk in the middle. Here&rsquo;s a simple recipe to get you started:
Ingredients: &ndash; 2 large Chino Valley Ranchers organic eggs &ndash; 1 tablespoon of butter or a splash of olive oil &ndash; Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions: 1. Preheat Your Pan: Place a non-stick skillet over low to medium heat and let it warm up for a minute or two. 2. Add Butter or Oil: Melt the butter or heat the oil in the skillet, ensuring it coats the entire cooking surface. 3. Crack the Eggs: Gently crack the eggs into a small bowl, making sure not to break the yolks. Carefully slide the eggs into the skillet. Skilled chefs may opt to crack the eggs directly into the pan. 4. Cook Slowly:&nbsp;Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes. The whites should set while the yolks remain bright and runny. If you prefer a slightly firmer yolk, cover the skillet for the last minute of cooking. 5. Season and Serve: Sprinkle with salt, pepper and any other seasonings of your choosing. Then serve your sunny side up egg immediately for the best freshness and flavor.
Tip: For an extra eye-catching presentation, try using a Comet Egg from Chino Valley Ranchers. These delicious and nutritious eggs are renowned for their vibrant orange yolks&mdash;perfect for a sunny summer breakfast presentation!
Perfect Pairings for Your Sunny Side Up Eggs While a sunny side up egg is delicious on its own, pairing it with complementary dishes can elevate your breakfast to a whole new level. Avocado Toast A slice of whole-grain toast topped with creamy avocado and a sunny side up egg is a match made in breakfast heaven. The richness of the avocado balances the bright, runny yolk perfectly.
Saut&eacute;ed Veggies Lightly saut&eacute;ed summer vegetables like zucchini, onions, cherry tomatoes or bell peppers make a vibrant and nutritious side. The combination of their sweetness with the savory egg is simply delightful.
Crisp Bacon or Sausage For those who enjoy a hearty breakfast, crispy bacon or sausage links complement the egg&rsquo;s richness. Their salty, smoky flavors are a classic pairing with sunny side up eggs.
Fresh Fruit Fresh fruit like berries, melons or citrus will add a burst of color and sweetness to your plate. The bright flavors and juiciness of the fruit contrast wonderfully a sunny side up Chino Valley Ranchers egg.
Why Choose Chino Valley Ranchers Eggs? Chino Valley Ranchers eggs are known for their superior quality, coming from happy hens raised on organic feed and treated humanely. This commitment to quality ensures that each egg is not only delicious, but also packed with the best nutrients. Opting for organic eggs like those from Chino Valley Ranchers means you&rsquo;re starting your day with the right ingredients. This is especially important in the summer when fresh, natural flavors are at their peak.

You&rsquo;ll want to start with a good non-stick skillet. This ensures easy egg flipping and less broken yolks.
Heat your skillet over medium heat, and when hot add a little oil. Crack your eggs into individual bowls, and pour into the pan.
Depending on the size of your pan, you may need to cook in batches. After pouring the egg into the skillet, watch as the egg white begins to cook.&nbsp;
Once the outer edges look cooked through, after 2-3 minutes, gently and with confidence, flip the egg and let it cook for 1-2 more minutes, to set the white but not to cook the egg yolk. Season with a little salt and repeat as needed!

Easy Fried Egg Burgers

Eggs are an extremely versatile food item. They can be cooked and enjoyed on their own in a wide variety of ways. They can be used for batters and coatings. They act as a binder in everything from baked goods to meat dishes. There is so much you can do with a simple egg. Plus, they offer many nutritional benefits&mdash;especially when you are using organic eggs from the happy, healthy cage-free chickens of Chino Valley Ranchers!
Ultimate Convenience However, sometimes you don&rsquo;t want to deal with cracking an egg (or several eggs) to make your favorite dishes. You may be making a quick breakfast before work or school. You might be baking something and want to minimize the mess. This is when liquid eggs are a great alternative. You get all the same nutrition and taste, but in a much more convenient package. You can pour your pre-mixed eggs right out of a carton with no shells to toss out. Whether you&rsquo;re making scrambled eggs, meatloaf, cupcakes or anything in between, liquid eggs give you just what you need exactly when you need it.
What is a Liquid Whole Egg? People often ask us if there is anything different about liquid whole eggs in a carton compared to regular eggs from a shell. These are whole eggs cracked and deshelled for your convenience. The only difference is a little bit of natural citric acid added to the mix to act as a preservative for the raw eggs in the carton. That way, they stay fresher for longer. You can keep a carton of liquid eggs on hand to use at your convenience.&nbsp;
Chino Valley Ranchers Pasture Raised Liquid Whole Eggs Chino Valley Ranchers offers Liquid Whole Eggs that come from chickens which are pasture raised for optimal health and happiness. These hens are free to roam the fields during the day, allowing them to eat grass, seeds, bugs and worms as they would in nature. They also enjoy the sunlight, bathing in the dust and resting in the shade. Our ranches provide at least 108 square feet of open land per bird.&nbsp;
Each 16-ounce pint of Chino Valley Ranchers Pasture Raised Liquid Whole Eggs is equivalent to about 10 eggs. All you need to do is shake the carton a bit before serving to make sure the yolks and whites are nicely mixed. Then, about three tablespoons (3 Tbsp) of liquid eggs is equivalent to one whole egg that you can use for any recipe that calls for mixed eggs. If you are making something that requires you to separate the whites from the yolks, you&rsquo;ll still want to use shelled eggs. Otherwise, our Liquid Whole Eggs are the perfect convenient substitute for almost&nbsp; any other recipe!
Chino Valley Ranchers 100% Organic Liquid Egg Whites If you are looking for an even healthier option or have a recipe that only calls for egg whites, you&rsquo;ll want to pick up a carton of Chino Valley Ranchers 100% Organic Liquid Egg Whites. These egg whites come from eggs which come from hens who are fed only the finest certified organic (non-GMO) grains and seeds. They are also raised in pesticide-free fields in a cage-free environment. Our egg whites are naturally fat free, cholesterol free and contain no additives or extra ingredients. Without the yolks, egg whites naturally stay preserved longer. You can keep a carton in your fridge for all your healthy cooking needs. We offer two sizes for your convenience: 16 ounces and 32 ounces.

<h2 dir="ltr">Easy Homemade Classic Vanilla Pudding Recipe</h2>
Skip the pudding box mix and try making it at home! This classic version uses <a href="https://www.chinovalleyranchers.com/products/organic-omega-3" target="_blank" rel="noopener">egg yolks</a> to thicken the milk into a smooth and creamy sweet pudding.
Made with 7 simple ingredients, you&rsquo;ll be amazed at how easy homemade pudding is to make.
<h2 dir="ltr">Tempering eggs</h2>
One important step when making pudding at home is to temper the egg yolks, which basically means to add a small amount of the hot milk into your egg yolks before adding the egg yolks into the pudding.
This step is important because if you simply add the egg yolks directly into the pudding mixture, you&rsquo;ll be left with scrambled eggs instead of luscious, creamy pudding.

Grated Egg Avocado Toast

Have you ever eaten quiche and wondered why you don&rsquo;t eat it way more often? Quiches are delicious, nutritious and easier to make than you might think. You can enjoy a nice quiche for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and they are an especially great dish for a Sunday brunch. All you really need is some fresh eggs, cream (or milk if you prefer) and other ingredients you can buy pre-made if you wish. Quiches are easy to make ahead of time and heat up when you are ready to eat. You can even store them in the freezer for up to 3-4 months, so you have a quick meal available whenever you want it. Here is one of our favorite classic Quiche Lorraine recipes, which you can easily customize with whichever cheese, meat and veggie fillings you like best:
A Flaky Base&mdash;The Crust It starts with the pie crust. You can make your own with flour, eggs, butter and salt. However, we recommend using store-bought 9-inch pie crusts to make it as simple and convenient as possible. You can purchase frozen crusts already in the pan or refrigerated pastry crusts to put in your own pie pan. If you like a crisper crust, you can preheat it by itself for a few minutes before adding the fillings. Otherwise, you can fill it with your ingredients and cook together. Just make sure the crust is thawed if using a frozen one!
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees as you prepare your quiche.
Ingredients For one quiche, you will need the following ingredients (multiply accordingly if preparing multiple quiches at once): &nbsp;&bull; 4 large eggs, beaten &nbsp;&bull; 1 cup shredded or cubed cheese* &nbsp;&bull; 2 cups light cream (or milk if you prefer) &nbsp;&bull; 3/4 tsp salt &nbsp;&bull; 1/4 tsp sugar &nbsp;&bull; 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
*Most classic Quiche Lorraine recipes will use gruyere or swiss cheese. Cheddar cheese (especially a nice sharp cheddar) or Colby jack also work great. Use whichever cheese you like best for taste and texture.
Flavor with Your Favorite Fillings The above ingredients make up the base for your quiche. Now, you can decide what else you want to put in it. Cubed ham, smoked turkey and bacon are all excellent choices if you want a really hearty quiche. Spinach, artichoke, zucchini, diced onions and tomatoes are tasty and colorful veggie options. Maybe even try some bell pepper or jalape&ntilde;os if you like a little extra spice. That&rsquo;s the great thing about quiches. You can make them so many different ways.&nbsp;
You&rsquo;ll usually want to use about a cup to a cup-and-a-half of meat and/or veggie fillings mixed with the cheese. Put that in your pie crust first. Then pour in your beaten egg mixture. If you aren&rsquo;t in the mood for cracking shells and mixing the eggs yourself, you can use Chino Valley Ranchers Pasture Raised Liquid Whole Eggs. These eggs come from hens raised on pastures, eating natural diets and living a happy, healthy lifestyle. We mix the eggs in a convenient carton, which is great for convenient meals like scrambled eggs, baked goods, and of course, quiches!
Otherwise, you can use any of Chino Valley Ranchers&rsquo; organic, cage-free or pasture-raised eggs for a delicious quiche recipe. You might even want to try our Comet Eggs for out-of-this world flavor and color. For a healthier alternative, you can try our 100% Organic Liquid Egg Whites without the yolks.
Baking and Serving Now that your quiche is ready to cook, put it in the preheated oven for 15 minutes at 425 degrees. From there, you will want to reduce the heat to 300 degrees and let the quiche cook for another 30 minutes. You will want to check it during the second cook time. Use a knife and insert into the filling to test if it is cooked thoroughly. Once it comes out clean, you&rsquo;ll know your quiche is ready.
Let your quiche cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. You can garnish your Quiche Lorraine with scallions or parsley for a little extra flavor and color.&nbsp;
Quiches are easy to make and great for any meal of the day, any time of year. To find Chino Valley Ranchers egg products at a store near you, check out our <a href="https://www.chinovalleyranchers.com/store-locator" target="_blank" rel="noopener">store locator</a>.

Our top priority at Chino Valley Ranchers is producing the highest quality eggs. The best way to do this is to raise healthy chickens. We have always firmly believed that happy birds lay the best eggs. One key part of this raising process is making sure the hens are fed right. We take a great deal of pride in curating the feeds that are eaten by the chickens at our farms. What they eat plays a very important role in the quality, consistency and nutritional content of the eggs they produce.&nbsp;
Why Organic Chicken Feed? All of our organic egg products come from hens who are fed purely organic diets made of non-GMO grains, seeds and proteins. We mill our own feed onsite at Southern California&rsquo;s only dedicated organic poultry feed mill. This enables us to ensure the purity and quality of the organic feeds we send out to our farms. In addition, we produce a variety of different organic feeds for different nutritional purposes.&nbsp;
Organic Omega-3 Soy-Free Corn-Free Eggs One of our most popular product lines is our Organic Omega-3 Soy-Free Corn-Free Eggs. These are laid by hens who are fed a special soy-free, corn-free diet rich in flax seed. This grain is naturally high in Omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 is also known as alpha-linoleic acid (ALA), which is known to have positive health effects in humans. It is great for cardiovascular health. These eggs have the same brilliant-colored yolks and delicious taste as all our egg products but with more Omega-3 and no soy or corn.&nbsp;
Why Soy-Free and Corn-Free? Though soy is a good source of protein, it is not typically something most chickens would eat in the wild. Corn is something they like to eat, but it doesn&rsquo;t offer the same nutritional value for egg-laying hens as other grains. Our organic soy-free and corn-free chicken feed offers all the natural nutrition our free-range hens need, along with boosted Omega-3 fatty acids. This special diet helps with vitamin E, selenium, iron and zinc levels in the birds, which translates into some truly delicious and nutritious eggs.&nbsp;
We also understand some of our customers may have allergies relating to soy and corn products. Chino Valley Ranchers Organic Omega-3 Soy-Free Corn-Free Eggs provide an excellent alternative for people wanting to reduce their soy and corn consumption, while also looking for more Omega-3s.&nbsp;
Other Benefits of Organic Omega-3 Soy-Free Corn-Free Eggs Not only do our Organic Omega-3 Soy-Free Corn-Free Egg-laying hens have a specialized diet. They are raised free-range with plenty of sunshine and room for exercise and socialization. They are able to graze naturally for grains and proteins while getting the supplemental health benefits of our organic soy-free and corn-free feed. They lay beautiful brown eggs, with each one containing around 225 mg of Omega-3 fatty acids.

No Peel Egg Salad Sandwich

There are many types of eggs you can find on your supermarket shelves. Some will have different labels than others, generally related to USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) requirements and certifications. So, what exactly does it mean when an egg is labeled as USDA-Certified Organic?&nbsp;
USDA Organic Certification Egg farmers must meet certain standards for chicken feed, raising environments and other standards in order to be classified as Organic by the USDA. Four of the most important requirements include:
<ol>
<li>Cage-Free&mdash;Organically raised hens must not be confined to cages at all times. They are provided adequate room to exercise and socialize.</li>
<li>Organic Diet&mdash;The feed that the hens eat must be certified Organic in its own right, primarily meaning it is sourced from plants and proteins not grown with pesticides. The grains and seeds they are fed are all non-GMO (genetically modified organisms) products.</li>
<li>No Antibiotics or Hormones&mdash;The chickens also cannot be given any antibiotics or hormones.</li>
<li>Seasonal Outdoor Access&mdash;Lastly, hens need to be required with at least seasonal access to outdoor spaces. This enables them to forage and graze naturally.</li>
</ol>
Organic and Humane The above list represents some of the basic standards required for eggs to be certified as Organic by the USDA. Some farmers take it even further with their humane hen-raising practices. This is important to us at Chino Valley Ranchers. We strongly believe happy and healthy chickens produce better eggs. Organic eggs offer unique health benefits. They are free of pesticides, hormones, antibiotics, and GMOs. Our feeds are specially formulated for the health and well-being of our hens, with fully Organic ingredients. Our chickens have ample room to roam in cage-free conditions. As a consumer, you can rest assured you are buying quality eggs from organically and humanely raised chickens when you see the USDA-Organic label on Chino Valley Ranchers egg products.
Chino Valley Ranchers Organic Eggs Chino Valley Ranchers offers a wide variety of USDA-Certified Organic eggs and egg products for our customers to enjoy:
Organic Organic eggs from Chino Valley Ranchers come from hens living on free-range farms. They are fed only the finest non-GMO grains and seeds from pesticide-free fields. In fact, we mill our own feed onsite at Southern California&rsquo;s only dedicated organic poultry-free meal. Each egg is inspected to ensure it measures up to our standards of quality.
Organic Omega-3 Our Organic Omega-3 eggs come from hens who are fed an Organic diet rich in flax seed. This grain is naturally high in Omega-3 fatty acids. Each egg contains 225 mg of Omega-3 (ALA). This is known to have positive benefits for humans, including improved cardiovascular health.
Organic Omega-3 Soy Free Corn Free These chickens are fed a special diet without any corn or soy, but rich in flax seed. These offer the same Omega-3 benefits without the soy or corn.&nbsp;
Pasture Raised Organic Pasture raised hens are provided dedicated pastureland for them to roam freely and forage naturally. There are at least 108 square feet per bird. This raising approach combines a fully Organic diet of supplemental feed for healthier, happier chickens and great-quality eggs.
Organic 100% Liquid Egg Whites These egg whites are certified Organic from free-range hens. They are naturally fat free, cholesterol free, and contain no additives or artificial ingredients.

Organic Eggs: What Makes Them Different?

If you love buying and using brown eggs, but aren&rsquo;t quite sure how to dye them different colors for Easter, this guide is for you! With step by step photos and detailed instructions, you&rsquo;ll learn the easy way to dye brown eggs into deep, darker colors, and lighter more pastel colors without having white-shelled eggs on hand. <img src="http://cvr-env.eba-i8pyhtve.us-east-1.elasticbeanstalk.com/assets/323a52ee-0ad5-4599-889a-f2007b028fe5?width=1200&amp;height=1500" alt="How to Dye Brown Eggs 17">
<h2 dir="ltr">How To Dye Brown Eggs For Easter - The Ultimate Guide</h2>
Dyeing eggs is a fun tradition that not only brings beautiful color and whimsy to an Easter tablescape, it&rsquo;s a great activity to do with kids.
It can be easy to get white eggs to transform into many colors, but brown eggs can be just as beautiful.
<h2 dir="ltr">Start with hardboiled eggs</h2>
The first step in dyeing eggs for Easter is to hard boil your eggs. There are many ways to hard boil eggs, but this is a fool-proof, simple way to do it that will result in less cracked shells.
Place your eggs in a single layer in a pot. Cover the eggs at least 1 inch above with cold water.
Bring the water to a boil, then turn off the heat and add a lid to cover the eggs. Leave the eggs in the hot water for 15 minutes for large eggs. Leave medium sized eggs for 12 minutes, and extra large eggs for 18 minutes.
Place the hard boiled eggs in an ice bath to stop the cooking. Now you have eggs ready to dye!

In small bowls, cups or jars that are heatproof, add 1 cup of boiling water, 2 teaspoons of distilled vinegar, and 15-20 drops of food coloring.

<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Follow the instructions above for how to dye your lightened brown-shelled eggs!
</li>

<h2 dir="ltr">How to store</h2>
Eggs are perishable, so they will need to be stored in the fridge once you are done dyeing hard boiled eggs.
In general, they should not be left out at room temperature for more than 2 hours.
Once stored in the fridge in an airtight container, they will last for up to 7 days. <img src="http://cvr-env.eba-i8pyhtve.us-east-1.elasticbeanstalk.com/assets/66b44348-b825-428d-a1d3-13bd28e84345?width=1200&amp;height=1500" alt="How to Dye Brown Eggs 15">
<h2 dir="ltr">Tips for success</h2>
Don&rsquo;t overfill the jars - You want to make sure you leave enough space when you add water to your jars so that when you add the eggs, it does not overflow.&nbsp;
Mix to create color - If you&rsquo;re working with just primary colors of food coloring, mix yellow and red together to get orange, blue and red together to get purple, yellow and blue to get green. You can create a lot of different color variations when starting with red, blue and yellow.
This method for dyeing brown-shelled eggs will leave you with bright and colorful, or lighter more pastel colored Easter eggs. Try both methods and experiment with different colors and how long you let the eggs sit in the dye.

How To Dye Brown Eggs For Easter - The Ultimate Guide

Comet Eggs are truly out of this world in terms of flavor and appearance. They have become extremely popular with top chefs and bakers, as well as everyday folks who like to use Chino Valley Ranchers Comet Eggs for all sorts of delicious recipes.&nbsp;
So, what exactly is a Comet Egg? How are they produced? What makes them different than ordinary eggs?
The Origins of Comet Eggs Comet Eggs were first introduced by Chino Valley Ranchers in 2021. They wanted to have a line of eggs with an ultra-bright orange yolk, but also unique nutritional qualities associated with egg yolks of this unique hue.&nbsp;
&ldquo;We wanted to shake things up for breakfast and introduce a wild idea that would make the first meal of the day more exciting,&rdquo; says Chris Nichols, President of Chino Valley Ranchers. &ldquo;We hope our Comet Eggs will inspire a good laugh and fun conversations about the possibility of chickens inhabiting the moon and sending their bright orange yolks our way!&rdquo;
How Are Comet Eggs Produced? How Comet Eggs are produced is no laughing matter. We aren&rsquo;t conducting any mad science at our chicken farms. In fact, we use real science and biology in our humane and healthy hen-raising practices. Comet Eggs come from cage-free chickens raised on a special premium diet of specially formulated feed. This feed includes extra carotenoids, which are naturally occurring yellow-orange pigments found in nutritious vegetation like carrots and sea kelp.&nbsp;
Carotenoids include beta-carotene, lutein and xanthophyll, which are all linked to eye health. They say carrots are good for your eyes, and that is true. The science also shows that beta-carotene is known to improve cognitive function. Our Comet Egg-laying birds may be a little smarter than the average chicken. These health benefits are passed onto our consumers, with these nutritional elements from carotenoids contained inside the colorful yolks. &nbsp;Comet Eggs from Chino Valley Ranchers have zero grams of trans fat and six grams of protein, with only 70 calories per serving.
Growing Popularity Since we introduced Comet Eggs, they have become a favorite in the haute cuisine world&mdash;both here on earth and across the galaxy! Gourmet chefs love these eggs for the bright colors and nutritional qualities. Bakers love the distinctive color burst they provide baked goods. They can be used for pastas, pastries, sauces, desserts and any recipe that calls for eggs. Many people love cooking Comet Eggs for everyday home meals. You are sure to dazzle the kids in the morning if you are serving fresh-fried Comet Eggs sunny side up. Or, use Comet Eggs to make deviled eggs for your next neighborhood barbecue. You may want to wear some sunglasses, though!&nbsp;
If you are looking for something a little different on your breakfast plate or for use in your favorite recipe, give Comet Eggs a try. You will not be disappointed.

What Are Comet Eggs?

Buying eggs is not as simple as it used to be. There are many labels and distinctions between different types of eggs. These labels can relate to how and where the hens are raised, or what kind of feed they are given. Pasture Raised is one label you might see when shopping for eggs and egg products, and it&rsquo;s one we&rsquo;re very proud to feature at Chino Valley Ranchers.
Egg Certifications There are various egg certification programs that farmers can apply for when looking for specific labels like Pasture Raised. They must meet certain requirements in order to advertise their eggs under a specific banner. Most standard eggs you see in the store for the cheapest prices will generally be cage-produced eggs. The chickens are kept in cages that are designed to collect eggs as they are laid. This is an inhumane way to raise hens, in our opinion, and it&rsquo;s against everything we stand for at Chino Valley Ranchers. It prevents the birds from engaging in natural social behavior and physical activities. This, in addition to measurable health and nutrition benefits within the eggs, is why more humane alternatives to egg production are becoming more popular.
Pasture Raised Hens Pasture Raised eggs from Chino Valley Ranchers are laid by hens who are given a lot of room to roam outside of cages and in natural pasture environments. They benefit from being able to spend time in the sunshine, with fresh air to breathe and clean water to drink on family farms. These pastures enable the chickens to socialize and forage as they would in nature. They are able to eat seeds and bugs, while roaming around on pastureland covered in grass and other vegetation
Each farm must provide at least 108 square feet of open pastureland per bird. When paired with a complete and balanced diet of premium feed, our chickens live a healthier and happier lifestyle. And in our experience, happy birds lay better eggs. Chino Valley Ranchers certified Pasture Raised eggs are some of the most delicious and nutritious eggs around. We offer several products in this category, including Pasture Raised Eggs, Pasture Raised Organic Eggs, and Pasture Raised Liquid Whole Eggs.
Humane Practices At Chino Valley Ranchers, our business has been founded on humane hen-raising and egg-collection practices. We truly believe happy birds make the best eggs. Our pasture raised eggs are proof of this philosophy. We partner with farmers with dedicated pastureland and who meet our strict standards for every aspect of the egg production process. We provide the premium feed ourselves, designed to give our chickens the best nutritional support each and every day. It shows in the quality of the eggs you can find anywhere that carries Chino Valley Ranchers pasture raised eggs.
In addition to Pasture Raised eggs, we also offer a wide range of healthy and ethically-raised eggs and egg products under various categories.

Pasture Raised Eggs: What Does This Mean?

Pasture-raised eggs are a type of egg produced by hens that are allowed to roam freely outdoors, foraging for food such as grass, insects, and seeds. Unlike conventional or cage-free eggs, which may still involve confinement in indoor spaces, producing pasture-raised eggs prioritizes the welfare of the hens by providing them with access to open pastures where they can exhibit natural behaviors and have a more varied diet.&nbsp;How Pasture Raised Eggs Are ProducedAt Chino Valley Ranchers, we’re committed to producing high-quality pasture-raised eggs. Our approach to pasture-raised egg production involves providing hens with ample outdoor space to roam and forage. The hens are given access to lush pastures where they can freely graze and engage in natural behaviors, such as dust bathing and sunbathing. By allowing hens to spend time outdoors, our team ensures that eggs are not only nutritious but also ethically produced.&nbsp;Furthermore, at Chino Valley Ranchers we prioritize the health and well-being of hens by implementing sustainable farming practices and providing them with a clean and comfortable living environment. Our commitment to animal welfare and environmental sustainability sets us apart in the egg industry, making our pasture-raised eggs a popular choice among consumers who value quality and ethical food production.&nbsp;Where to Buy Pasture Raised EggsTo find our high-quality pasture-raised eggs, we offer a convenient <a href="https://www.chinovalleyranchers.com/store-locator">store locator tool</a> on our website.

Spice Up Breakfast With 5 Omelet Recipes

Eggs are a staple breakfast ingredient, versatile and packed with protein. If you’re looking for new ways to cook eggs for breakfast, here's a guide to seven delicious options. <ol><li>Sunny-Side-Up Eggs</li></ol>Begin by heating a non-stick skillet over low to medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil. Once the butter is melted and hot, crack an egg into the skillet, being careful not to break the yolk. As the egg cooks, the white should become firm while the yolk remains runny. For a perfectly smooth egg white, cover the skillet with a lid. Once cooked to your preference, season with salt and pepper, then serve.<ol start="2"><li>Over-Easy Eggs</li></ol>As with sunny-side-up eggs, start by heating a non-stick skillet with some butter or oil over medium heat. Then, crack the egg into the skillet. After a minute or so, when the white is set but the yolk is still runny, carefully flip the egg using a spatula. Let it cook for another minute or less (being careful to keep the yolk runny), then serve. <ol start="3"><li>Eggs-in-a-Basket</li></ol>Using a cookie cutter or a glass, make a hole in the center of a slice of bread. Then, place the bread into a heated skillet with melted butter. Crack an egg into the hole and cook until the bread is golden brown. Then flip to cook the other side. Once done, you'll have a delicious combination of crispy bread and a perfectly cooked egg. <ol start="4"><li>Scrambled Eggs</li></ol>Whisk together eggs with a dash of milk or cream. Heat a pan with butter over low to medium heat and pour in the egg mixture, stirring constantly using a spatula. The key is to cook the eggs slowly, so they remain soft and creamy. Once they've achieved a soft curd-like consistency, season with salt, pepper, and some herbs or cheese, if desired.<ol start="5"><li>Omelet</li></ol>Whisk eggs and pour them into a hot, buttered non-stick skillet. Swirl the eggs around the pan and let them set. Once they start to firm up but are still slightly runny in the middle, add fillings like cheese, vegetables, or meats to one half. Carefully fold the other half over the fillings and continue to cook until done.<ol start="6"><li>Frittata</li></ol>Think of a frittata as a thicker, oven-finished omelet. Begin by sautéing fillings like sausage, mushrooms, or vegetables in an oven-safe skillet. Pour whisked eggs over the fillings, and cook until the edges start to set. Then transfer the skillet to an oven, preheated to around 350°F (175°C), and bake until the eggs are set in the center.<ol start="7"><li>Poached Eggs</li></ol>Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer and add a touch of vinegar. Crack an egg into a small bowl. Create a whirlpool in the simmering water using a spoon, and gently slide the egg into the center of the whirlpool. The swirling water helps the egg white wrap around the yolk. Cook for about 4 minutes for a soft yolk, then remove with a slotted spoon.

5 Savory Egg Recipes For Dinner

When it comes to selecting eggs for purchase at the grocery store, it’s important to consider several key characteristics to ensure the best choice for your needs and preferences. These factors include egg labels, egg grade, and egg size.Egg labelsEgg labels play a crucial role in understanding the living conditions and diets of the hens that laid the eggs. Familiarizing oneself with the various labels is essential. Conventional eggs typically come from hens kept in small cages, while cage-free eggs signify that the hens have more room to move but may still be indoors.&nbsp;Free-range eggs indicate that hens have access to the outdoors, although the specifics can vary. Organic eggs are produced following strict standards that prohibit the use of pesticides and antibiotics in both the hens and their feed. Furthermore, there are organic vegetarian-fed eggs for those looking for a diet without animal by-products. Finally, the highest-quality option is pasture-raised eggs, which come from hens that are free to roam outdoors, enjoying a more natural and enriched environment.Understanding the differences between conventional, cage-free, free-range, organic, organic vegetarian-fed, and pasture-raised eggs will help you make informed choices that align with your dietary goals and personal values.&nbsp; Egg gradeNext, shoppers should consider egg grade, which is a quality designation assigned to eggs based on their appearance, size, and freshness. Eggs are graded as AA, A, or B, with AA being the highest quality and B being the lowest. The grade reflects the egg's firmness, yolk position, and shell integrity.Egg sizeEgg size is another consideration that can vary according to personal preference and recipe requirements. Eggs are typically graded as jumbo, extra-large, large, medium, small, or peewee. Larger eggs are ideal for recipes that require more volume, while smaller ones are suitable for portion control and baking recipes that call for precise measurements.To ensure the highest quality and ethical standards, Chino Valley Ranchers eggs are a top-notch choice. Eggs are produced by hens living in spacious and natural environments, ensuring the well-being of the animals and the quality of the eggs they produce. Whether you prefer organic, cage-free, or pasture-raised eggs, Chino Valley Ranchers offers a diverse range of options to meet everyone's needs.

How to Choose The Right Eggs at The Grocery Store

This homemade key lime pie recipe from our friend <a href="" title="">Breanna @ Knead The Recipe</a> is the perfect balance of creamy, tart and sweet! The homemade graham cracker crust combined with the silky smooth key lime filling, will transport you straight to the Florida Keys after your first bite! See below!<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Key Lime Pie Origin</h2>Key lime pie is the state pie of Florida, and rightfully so! This classic recipe dates back to the 1800’s in Key West Florida. This area did not get fresh milk deliveries and were not accustomed to refrigeration until the 1930’s. This is why condensed milk is a key ingredient in traditional key lime pie recipes. Key limes are another staple ingredient which are smaller and less tart than regular limes which make them perfect for this recipe! I’ve created an easy key lime pie recipe that has classic flavors but also a unique twist to give it an extra creamy consistency! An authentic key lime pie recipe uses egg yolks only but I find that using whole eggs gives this pie a lighter texture and reduces food waste! How many of us actually ever use the egg whites after we separate them for a recipe? I am guilty of forgetting about them!<img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.kneadtherecipe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/IMG_9137.png?resize=812%2C1083&amp;ssl=1" alt="Inside of key lime pie"><h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ingredients for Classic Key Lime Pie Recipe</h2><ul><li>Whole Eggs:&nbsp;I use&nbsp;<a href="" title="">Chino Valley Ranchers Liquid Whole Eggs</a>&nbsp;to make this pie extra rich and creamy.

5 Summer Recipes For A Family Brunch

There’s almost a science to making poached eggs. It may take a bit of practice, but to prepare perfectly poached eggs, be sure to use the following helpful tips.&nbsp;1. Use a skillet with a lid.First, use a skillet with a lid to create a controlled cooking environment for the eggs. This helps to retain heat and steam, ensuring even cooking. 2. Add vinegar to the water.Next, add a small amount of vinegar to the water. The acidity of the vinegar helps coagulate the egg whites more quickly, resulting in a neater and more compact poached egg.3. Use small bowls or ramekins.Prepare small bowls or ramekins to crack the eggs into before adding them to the water. This step helps prevent the eggs from spreading and keeps them contained, resulting in a more visually appealing poached egg.4. Lower the heat.Lower the heat to a gentle simmer before adding the eggs to the water. A rapid boil can cause the eggs to break apart or cook too quickly. By maintaining a gentle simmer, you ensure a more delicate and evenly cooked poached egg.5. Gently slip the eggs into the water.Gently slip the cracked eggs into the simmering water. Using a slotted spoon or a spatula, create a whirlpool in the water by stirring it gently. This swirling motion helps the egg whites wrap around the yolk, giving the poached egg a classic rounded shape. 6. Cover the skillet and turn off the heat.Cover the skillet with a lid to trap the heat and steam. This technique helps cook the top portion of the poached eggs without flipping them, resulting in a perfectly cooked yolk and a tender egg white. By following these tips, you can achieve beautifully poached eggs that are both visually appealing and delicious. Experimenting with different cooking times can help you achieve your preferred level of doneness, whether you prefer a runny yolk or a firmer yolk. Remember, practice makes perfect, so don't be discouraged if your first attempts aren't flawless. With time and experience, you'll master the art of poaching eggs and be able to enjoy this elegant and versatile cooking technique.

Secrets To Perfectly Poached Eggs

Soft scrambled eggs are a luxurious and velvety alternative to the traditional firm scramble. When prepared correctly, they have a rich and creamy texture that melts in your mouth. If you've ever wondered how to achieve the perfect soft scramble, here are a few tips for making soft scrambled eggs. 1. Whisking is KeyTo achieve that silky texture, it's important to whisk your eggs thoroughly before cooking. Whisking helps incorporate air into the eggs, resulting in a lighter and fluffier scramble. Aim for a consistent yellow color with no streaks of egg whites.2. Opt for Good Quality EggsUsing fresh, high-quality Chino Valley Ranchers eggs is essential for a successful soft scramble. Choose organic or free-range eggs to enhance the flavor and overall quality of your dish.3. Timing of SeasoningUnlike traditional scrambled eggs, it's best to add salt and pepper to your soft scramble at the end of the cooking process. Seasoning too early can draw out moisture from the eggs, resulting in a watery scramble. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper just before serving to enhance the flavors. 4. Incorporate Milk or Cream:For an extra touch of creaminess, consider adding a splash of milk or cream to your beaten eggs. This step is optional but can help create a richer texture in your soft scramble. Use approximately one tablespoon of milk or cream per two eggs. 5. Use Low HeatTo achieve the perfect soft scramble, gentle heat is essential. Start by preheating your pan over low heat. This ensures that the eggs cook slowly and evenly, preventing them from becoming rubbery. Patience is key when it comes to achieving the desired texture. 6. Stirring TechniqueUnlike traditional scrambled eggs, soft scrambled eggs require a different stirring technique. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to continuously stir the eggs in gentle, sweeping motions. This helps create small curds and prevents the eggs from sticking to the pan. Remember to remove the pan from the heat just before the eggs are fully set, as residual heat will continue to cook them.

How to Make Fluffy Soft Scrambled Eggs

Chino Valley Ranchers, a leading producer of organic, cage-free and pasture raised eggs, announced today that their soy-free eggs are now also corn-free. The move comes in response to consumer demand for eggs that are free from common allergens and dietary restrictions.Chino Valley Ranchers' Soy-Free Organic Omega-3 eggs are already popular among consumers seeking a healthy and delicious egg option. The eggs come from hens raised in free-roaming environments and fed a special soy-free diet that contains flaxseed, a grain naturally high in Omega-3 fatty acids.Now, with the removal of corn from their diet, Chino Valley Ranchers' Soy-Free Organic Omega-3 eggs are even more allergen-friendly and suitable for a wider range of diets. Each egg still contains 225 mg of Omega-3, also known as alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), which has been shown to have positive health effects in humans, especially for cardiovascular health."We're thrilled to offer our customers an even more allergen-friendly egg option with the removal of corn from our hens' diet," said Chris Nichols, CEO of Chino Valley Ranchers. "We understand the importance of providing high-quality eggs that meet the needs and preferences of all consumers, and we're committed to continuing to innovate and improve our product offerings."<ul><li>Chino Valley Ranchers' Soy-Free Organic Omega-3 eggs are available now in stores nationwide.</li></ul>

Chino Valley Ranchers Goes Corn-Free with Soy-Free Eggs

We all have our preferences when it comes to fried eggs. Some love sunny side up, others like scrambled, while others want over-easy. The question that we’d like to tackle is, “What do you use to actually fry the eggs?” Butter? Oil? The additional alternatives are ghee, margarine, and bacon grease. The three types of oils that you could use to fry eggs include olive oil, avocado oil, and corn oil. Here’s what you should know about the benefits of each. ButterButter — especially grass-fed and organic butter — has a creamy and smooth texture that makes it great for frying eggs. But it’s not the lowest calorie option, as a single tablespoon of salted butter has about 100 calories and 11.5 grams of fat.GheeGhee has a more concentrated flavor than regular butter and is made by skimming milk solids out of melted butter. Ghee is high in butyric acid, which can help reduce inflammation and support gut health.Olive OilThere are many olive oil options to choose from. Some brands incorporate flavors like butter, herbs, pepper, fruit, or even spice. Olive oil is high in fatty acids, particularly monounsaturated oleic acid, which can help reduce the risk of heart disease. The phenolic compounds in olive oil also have anti-inflammatory properties.MargarineThis butter alternative is made from vegetable oils and can vary widely in flavor. Margarine may take some getting used to, in terms of flavor as some say it tastes artificial and overpowering. Corn OilCorn oil will make the edges of fried eggs crispy and it’s an inexpensive option to cook with. However, corn oil is high in linoleic acid, which is an omega-6 fat that can increase the risk of heart disease, obesity, depression, and impaired brain function.Avocado OilDefinitely not the cheapest oil at your local grocery store, but it has become a popular option among those who love its smooth consistency, nutty flavor, and high smoke point.Bacon GreaseIf nutrition isn’t a concern, then bacon grease will give you the smoky rich flavor you’re craving with your fried eggs. A few tablespoons of bacon grease will be enough to prepare fried eggs that are truly out of this world.

Frying Eggs in Butter vs Oil: Which is Best?

How Do You Make Italian Easter BreadMaking Italian Easter Bread is very simple but it does require a few steps of waiting for the dough to rise. This is a great recipe to make while you make other items. First, you’ll add the yeast and milk to the mixing bowl and let it sit for 5 minutes.Next, you’ll add the butter, eggs and sugar to combine. I used Chino Valley Ranchers Organic Omega-3 Soy Free eggs. These eggs are made with a special soy and corn-free diet, that contains flax seed—a grain naturally high in Omega-3 fatty acids reaching levels of around 225mg or more. Their organic eggs have the most brilliant colored yolks, amazing taste and are high quality. Add the flour slowly to combine into the dough. Knead the dough on low until its tacky and not sticky. Then add the dough to an olive oil coated bowl to let rise for an hour. Dye your uncooked eggs while you wait for the dough to rise. Then, cut the dough into 12 pieces and roll into 12 inch ropes. Braid the dough by twisting two ropes together and then pinch them at the ends to join.Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and cover with a towel for one hour. Preheat the oven to 350F and add an egg wash to the bread dough.Sprinkle with rainbow non-pareils sprinkles. Add dyed non-cooked eggs to the center of each bread. Bake for 20-25 minutes.

The Best Italian Easter Bread

Just when you thought you knew everything about making scrambled eggs, you discover the French have their own approach. If you’re curious, here’s how French-style scrambled eggs are different from your traditional scrambled egg recipe. The French ApproachTo make French scrambled eggs, pour beaten eggs and a slice of butter into a cold saucepan and set it on low heat. Then, begin whisking the eggs to break up the curds as soon as they form. Whisking the eggs as they cook will make them less fluffy because the air bubbles that form while the egg is cooking are repeatedly broken and disturbed. The low heat also reduces flufliness, because the water vapor and gas in the eggs doesn’t expand as much as it would under high heat.As the eggs cook, they form a custard texture that is thick and smooth. This method definitely requires more patience and time, but the final result is creamy deliciousness well worth the wait! The French enjoy these scrambled eggs atop brioche toast or a baguette, with caviar or lobster.French Scrambled Eggs RecipeTo make this recipe, you’ll need six large Chino Valley Ranchers eggs, ¼ teaspoon salt, two tablespoons unsalted butter, four tablespoons cream or milk, and freshly ground white or black pepper. For the best texture, flavor, and a bright color, use Chino Valley Ranchers pasture raised eggs. Pasture raised hens enjoy the outdoors and feed on bugs, worms, grass, and seeds for a wholesome diet. Hens are free to roam, making them happier, healthier, and better producers of nutritious eggs.Begin by combining eggs, salt, butter, and milk or cream in a small saucepan. Set over low heat and whisk continuously until the eggs have thickened to a custard-like consistency. This should take about five to 10 minutes. Then, remove from heat and season with pepper. Pair the eggs with caviar, salmon roe, cured salmon, bacon, or truffle, and serve with fresh herbs, such as dill or chives. Serve on your favorite bread and enjoy while still hot!

Chino Valley Ranchers Recognized by Assembly Member Eloise Gomez-Reyes

Following California’s recent severe storms, residents in many communities have faced life-threatening conditions and an inability to obtain basic necessities. Crestline, a small, scenic town of 10,000 located in the San Bernardino Mountains, experienced a total white out in early March when a series of precedented winter storms dropped more than 100 inches of snow. Authorities managed to clear primary roads to allow emergency services to get through, but local streets remained under feet of snow, and desperate residents were forced to hike out from their homes in search of needed supplies.&nbsp;Like many buildings in the area, the town’s only grocery store, Goodwin &amp; Son’s Market, was destroyed in a roof collapse caused by excessive snow. This family-owned business has served the community since 1946 and is the lifeline for residents during severe weather.&nbsp; But the roof collapse didn’t stop Goodwin &amp; Sons and its partners from getting crucial supplies to their neighbors in need. The market’s North Shore Lake parking lot became an emergency supply station, where staples and ready-to-eat meals were distributed. Chino Valley Ranchers answered the call by loading up the 4-wheel drive and donating 900 cartons and 60 cases of organic eggs to the relief effort.&nbsp; A Goodwin Organics spokesperson posted: “We are so grateful for businesses like Chino Valley Ranch who step up to support their local community in times of need. It's heartwarming to see the community come together to help each other out during challenging times. Thank you, Chino Valley Ranch, for your incredible contribution to the Crestline Community! #communitysupport #gratitude #localheroes #goodwinsorganics”Chino Valley Ranchers is a family-owned enterprise with deep roots in Southern California. For three generations, we have made it our business to support the health and well-being of our community, not just by farming our nutritious, pasture-raised eggs, but through acts of service to our neighbors.&nbsp; As the snow abates, residents and businesses in Crestline will be rebuilding damaged structures and resuming their way of life. Goodwin &amp; Son’s Market remains closed for the time being as repairs are underway. While everyone is eager for a return to normalcy, this historic event has been a heartwarming reminder of the power of community.&nbsp; Family-owned and operated since the 1950s, Chino Valley Ranchers is dedicated to bringing the freshest, healthiest and best-tasting eggs to your table. As an accredited California Certified Organic Farmers (CCOF) organic provider, Chino Valley Ranchers’ hens are fed the finest organic, non-GMO grains and seeds from certified pesticide-free fields. Chickens are pasture-raised and free to roam in and out of doors with unlimited access to fresh food and water. Chino Valley Ranchers eggs are certified by American Humane and carry the American Humane Certified seal.

We all know eggs are packed with protein, minerals, and other healthy nutrients. There are so many recipes we can make with eggs, from frittatas and muffins, to casseroles and deviled eggs, but what about the egg shells? You’d be surprised at the nutritional benefits of egg shells and their many uses.Egg shells are rich in calcium, strontium, and fluorine — nutrients that support bone metabolism and stimulate cartilage growth. The anti-inflammatory effects of eggshells are another benefit being explored in various studies for their potential to treat joint connective tissue disorders, such as lupus, gout, arthritis, and back pain. In addition, eggshell powder may be used to support remineralization of the enamel in teeth, according to recent research.CompostingThe calcium and minerals found in egg shells will help break down soil to increase the availability of nutrients in your home garden. Be sure to crush the shells before placing them in the soil to speed up decomposition.Improve coffee flavorIf putting egg shells in your coffee grounds sounds strange, rest assured there’s a good reason to do so. The alkaline levels of the egg shells help balance the acidity of coffee, creating a smoother and more mellow flavor.&nbsp; Rinse the uncooked shells with hot water and crush them, before adding them to coffee grounds. Typically one egg is enough for four cups of coffee.Face maskUse a mortar and pestle to crush a clean egg shell and whisk it into an egg white. Apply the mixture to the face and allow the mask to dry before removing. The protein in the egg white and shells will help tighten and rejuvenate the skin.Garden pest repellantThe jagged edges of egg shells will repel slugs, snails, and cutworms, as well as cats who might want to use your garden as their personal litter box.GardeningTomato, eggplant, and pepper plants will benefit from the extra calcium found in egg shells, as well as rose bushes and apple trees. Simply add crushed egg shells around the base of the plants, bushes, and trees every two weeks.Dog or bird foodShare the calcium found in egg shells with dogs and birds to support their overall health.

5 Egg Recipes To Satisfy Your Comfort Food Craving

Eggs are tiny powerhouses of vitamins, amino acids, and other nutrients. Adding eggs to your diet will bring a host of health benefits.&nbsp; 1. Excellent nutrient and mineral profileDid you know that the nutrients in a single fertilized egg cell are capable of creating an entire chick? Each egg contains vitamin B12, vitamin B2, vitamin A, vitamin B5, and selenium. An egg also contains trace amounts of calcium, iron, manganese, zinc, potassium, vitamin E, and folate. Before you go on an egg white diet, understand that the egg white only contains protein, while the egg yolk contains all the above-mentioned nutrients. 2. Improve cholesterol levelsWe’ve all heard the warnings that eggs raise cholesterol. However, studies show eggs actually improve cholesterol levels. Eggs raise good cholesterol (HDL) and change the bad cholesterol (LDL) into a large subtype that isn’t strongly associated with an increased risk of heart disease. In addition, eating three whole eggs per day can actually reduce insulin resistance, raise HDL, and increase the size of LDL particles in individuals with metabolic syndrome. 3. Choline-denseCholine is a component of cell membranes and a nutrient that helps synthesize the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Low choline intake may increase the risk of liver disease, neurological disorders, and heart disease. Consuming one large egg will provide 113 mg of choline. 4. Perfect amino acid profileThe body needs 21 amino acids to build proteins, and nine of them can’t be produced by the body. These nine amino acids are called essential amino acids because they must be obtained from diet. Eggs are an excellent source of protein, which have a perfect score of 100 when compared to other protein sources. 5. Eye protection powerEggs contain lutein and zeaxanthin, which are two antioxidants that protect the eyes. Both of these antioxidants are contained in the yolk and help reduce the risk of macular degeneration and cataracts.6. Support fat lossEggs are high on the satiety index, which is a measure of how satiated an individual feels after eating a particular food. For this reason, eating eggs for breakfast can lead to fat loss. So go right ahead and treat yourself to your favorite egg recipe — using Chino Valley Ranchers eggs, of course!

The Undeniable Health Benefits of Eggs

When browsing the grocery aisle for your preferred brand of eggs, you’ll notice cartons with various labels, from organic and free range, to pasture raised and cage free. Many consumers are choosing organic eggs over conventional eggs, but most don’t know what it takes to actually produce organic eggs. Here are just a few requirements Chino Valley Ranchers follows to produce organic eggs. FeedEggs certified USDA organic were produced by chickens fed 100% organic feed. Chickens may also receive vitamin and mineral supplements. Chino Valley Ranchers chickens receive a precise feed formulation that contains the finest grains, such as top grade corn, soybean, alfalfa, flax seed, and limestone and other essential minerals. Our chickens don’t consume any hormones, antibiotics, or animal by-products, ensuring they produce healthy and organic eggs. Preventive managementPreventive management involves health care for sick or injured animals. To receive the orgnaic label, chickens may not be treated with a substance that isn’t labeled organic. At Chino Valley Ranchers, we take chicken health seriously and closely monitor our hens for signs of illness. Pasture grazingChino Valley Ranchers pasture raised farms provide 108 square feet of pasture for each hen, which equals one full acre for every 400 hens. To be certified organic, chickens must spend at least 120 days of grazing on pastures. In addition, chickens must receive at least 30 percent of their feed from pasture. Access to the outdoorsOrganic chickens must have year-round access to the outdoors and may only be temporarily confined indoors due to documented environmental or health considerations. Why We Take Organic SeriouslyFor over 30 years, Chino Valley Ranchers has been a leading provider of organic eggs to Southern California residents. Our organic eggs don’t contain any preservatives, antibiotics, or growth hormones. In addition, our chickens consume a GMO-free feed that doesn’t contain any chemicals.

What it Takes to Produce Organic Eggs

As we dive into the new year and resolve to make healthy changes in diet, there are a few foods everyone should consider adding to boost memory and brain function. 1. Fatty fishFatty fish like salmon, albacore tuna, trout, herring, and sardines are rich in omega-3 fatty acids. About 30% of the brain is composed of omega-3 fatty acids, which is used to build brain and nerve cells. These fats support learning, memory, slow age-related mental decline, and ward off depression. Research also suggests that eating fish regularly increases gray matter in the brain, which is a substance that contains nerve cells that control memory, decision making, and emotion. 2. CoffeeThe caffeine and antioxidants contained in coffee help support brain health. Caffeine also delivers the following benefits: <ul><li>Increase alertness by blocking adenosine, a chemical messenger that causes drowsiness</li><li>Improve mood by boosting feel-good neurotransmitters like dopamine</li><li>Sharpen concentration by improving attention and alertness</li></ul>3. BlueberriesBlueberries contain anthocyanins, which is a group of plant compounds with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Consuming blueberries helps reduce stress and inflammation, and improve communication between brain cells.&nbsp; 4. Pumpkin seedsPumpkin seeds are rich in magnesium iron, zinc, and copper. These nutrients support nerve signaling, learning, memory, and brain function. 5. Dark chocolateChocolate with at least 70% cocoa contains flavonoids, caffeine, and antioxidants. Flavonoids are used by areas of the brain responsible for learning and memory, helping slow age-related mental decline.Chocolate is also an effective mood booster, increasing positive feelings.6. NutsEating nuts helps improve heart-health markers, which is linked to a healthy brain. One study showed that regular consumption of nuts is related to a lower risk of cognitive decline in older adults. The antioxidants, vitamin E, and healthy fats in nuts may explain the health benefits for the brain. 7. EggsEggs are rich in vitamins B6 and B12, choline, and folate — nutrients tied to brain health. Choline is used to create a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine that helps regulate mood and memory. Research showed that higher intakes of choline is linked to better memory and mental function. Folate and B12 help slow the progression of mental decline in adults with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.&nbsp;

7 Foods Great For Your Brain & Memory

You probably eat eggs and poultry on a regular basis, but how much do you know about chickens and hens? Here are a few fun facts that will shed some light on our feathered friends. 1. Chickens are omnivores.You might think that chickens only eat seeds, grass, and grain, but in fact, they also eat insects, field mice, toads, and lizards! 2. Chickens can recognize over 100 faces.Though you might struggle to tell chickens apart, rest assured they can recognize the faces of people around them. They can also recognize different animals, like cats and dogs. 3. Chickens have better color vision than humans.Contrary to popular belief, chickens aren’t colorblind. In fact, they have five types of light receptors in the eye that allow them to see many different colors. 4. Chickens have REM sleep.Like humans, chickens see dreams during the REM (rapid eye movement) phase of sleeping. But they also go through a sleep phase called unihemispheric slow-wave sleep (USWS) in which half of the brain sleeps while the other half is awake. This literally means they can sleep with one eye open. 5. Chickens have advanced communication skills.What sounds like meaningless clucks is actually a language of more than 30 different vocalizations that is used to communicate. 6. Genetics determines egg color.Did you know you can determine a chicken’s egg shell color by its earlobe color? A hen’s breed is another indicator of what color egg she will produce. 7. Chickens are descended from dinosaurs.Can you imagine chickens the size of dinosaurs? The truth is, chickens are descended from T. Rex dinosaurs. 8. Chickens outnumber humans four to one.In case you’re wondering, there are more than 25 billion chickens in the world. So a chicken invasion might be more plausible than an alien invasion. Statistically speaking. 9. Chickens are smarter than they look.Don’t underestimate a chicken’s intelligence! They have strong problem-solving skills and have super-sensory powers, like telescopic eyesight. 10. Chickens are followers.Chicken keepers know that if they can get one chicken to obey their commands, then the rest will follow. 11. Chickens can fly and run.Though they can’t fly very far, they can fly over a fence or get up high in a tree. They’re also able to turn on a dime to get away from predators.

Tips For Making Perfect Poached Eggs

A good frying pan can help the most inexperienced of cooks create delicious meals. But a poor frying pan can turn every meal into a disaster. To find a frying pan that will serve you well, here are a few factors to consider.MaterialFrying pans can be made with stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, carbon steel, and copper. Frying pans can also be made with clay and stone, and have non-stick surfaces. There are advantages and disadvantages to each, so it’s important to consider what’s important to you before making a purchase.&nbsp;For example, stainless steel pans are easy to clean but don’t conduct heat very well. To address this, most cookware companies add copper or aluminum to stainless steel products.Health factorWhen shopping for a frying pan, make sure it’s PFOA-free, BPA free, and PTFE free. Avoid frying pans that have coatings made of unusual chemicals. A few safe options include stainless steel, regular non-stick, hard-anodized aluminum, and seasoned cast iron. SizeFrying pans come in a variety of sizes. Smaller pans are great for frying eggs, while larger ones are designed for making skillet recipes and stir fry meals.Make sure the bottom of the frying pan isn’t bigger than the space of one stove burner to support heat transfer and minimize energy waste.Handle and gripA frying pan is no good if the handle is poorly attached or doesn’t have a solid grip. Avoid frying pans that have handles attached with a few small screws and choose one that is sturdy and stays cool to the touch during cooking. Depending on your budget, find a frying pan that heats evenly, is easy to lift, and built to last.CleaningNot all frying pans are dishwasher safe and oven-safe. Decide how you want to use the frying pan (strictly for stovetop cooking or baking as well) before making a purchase. Generally, oven-safe frying pans are dishwasher-safe. To lengthen the life of your frying pan, it’s best to wash by hand and avoid the dishwasher. Top Rated Frying PansIf you’re looking for the best frying pans on the market, a few options to consider are:<ul><li>GreenPan Reserve Nonstick Frying Pan</li><li>Butter Pat Joan Cast Iron Skillet</li><li>Tramontina 80131/066DS Cast-Iron Frying Pan</li><li>Le Creuset Poele Stainless Steel Frying Pan</li><li>De Buyer Mineral B French Collection 5670P Carbon Steel Frying Pan</li><li>&nbsp;Brooklyn Copper Sauté Frying Pan</li></ul>

5 Ways To Reimagine Your Avocado Toast

Eggs are an interesting food. Unlike veggies or fruit, you can’t usually tell whether eggs are still good to eat just by looking at them. If they’re in a shell, and the Best Buy date was a few days ago, you might wonder if they’re still safe to eat. Here are a few ways you can tell! 1. Sell-By DateEggs are safe to eat for three to five weeks after they’ve been refrigerated. The Sell By date is typically within that period, which means eggs a few days older than that date are still safe to eat. Just be sure to store Chino Valley Ranchers' eggs in a refrigerator at 40°F or lower to maintain their freshness. 2. Egg FloatThis is a test your kids will enjoy doing. Fill a bowl at least five inches deep with water and place the egg in it. If the egg drops to the bottom, it is fresh and safe to eat. If one end of the egg seems to float a bit, the egg is still safe to eat, just not as fresh. However, if the egg floats completely and doesn’t touch the bottom of the bowl, it is no longer safe to eat. 3. CandlingDid you know you could use a flashlight or other light source to see through an eggshell? Place a light near the large end of the egg and look for air pockets. If you see any, the egg isn’t fresh. The larger the air pocket, the older the egg. An air pocket grows because moisture in the egg has escaped through tiny pores in the shell, allowing air to come in. This indicates that the egg isn’t as fresh, but not necessarily unsafe to eat. 4. Sniff TestHard-boiled eggs can be sniffed to see if they’re still safe to eat. If they smell strange, just throw them out and get a fresh carton of Chino Valley Ranchers' eggs.5. Egg White TestCrack one egg on a flat plate and take a look at the egg white. If you see any hints of pink or green, this indicates the egg is longer fresh or safe to eat.

There are so many ways to prepare eggs, the terminology in recipes can seem overwhelming. We’ve created a simple list of egg terms and their definitions to make things easier for you next time you’re searching for egg recipes.Scrambled eggsBeat egg yolks and whites together and cook them in a skillet or pan, and you’ve got scrambled eggs. Sunny side up eggsIf you slow cook eggs in a frying pan until the egg white is set but the yolk is still runny, then you’ve got sunny side up eggs. The runny orange yolk resembles the sun.Basted eggsIf you’d like basted eggs, then spoon warm butter or oil over the top of the yolk to cook it.Poached eggsCook an egg without its shell in simmering water and the egg white will wrap around the yolk as it cooks to create a soft center.Hard boiled eggsCook the entire egg, in its shell, in boiling water and both the yolk and egg white will be set.Over easy eggsAn egg is cooked in a frying pan until the white is set, and then flipped over to cook the yolk side. Over hard eggsCooked the same way as over easy eggs, over hard eggs have a fully cooked yolk, rather than a runny one. Fried eggsUse butter or grease to cook fried eggs. Make them over easy, over medium, over hard, or sunny side up. Baked eggsBaked eggs are baked in a flat dish or a muffin pan and then topped with cheese, herbs, or vegetables. Deviled eggsTo make deviled eggs, remove the cooked yolk from a hard boiled egg and mix the yolk with mayonnaise and mustard. Then, scoop the yolk mixture back into the egg white. FrittataThis baked dish is made with eggs, herbs, meat, cheese, and vegetables. Enjoy a frittata from breakfast or brunch. Pickled eggsHard boiled eggs are pickled in a mixture of vinegar and pickling spice or brine. Scotch eggsSoft boil eggs and wrap them in sausage and breadcrumbs, and then deep fry or bake them to create scotch eggs. Baked egg custardBaked egg custard is made with vanilla, sugar, milk, and nutmeg. Frozen egg custardCreate this sweet, frozen egg dish with egg yolks for a creamy texture.

Chino Valley Rancher’s Egg Dish Terminology Guide

If you dread peeling hard boiled eggs, then you’re doing it all wrong. The following four hacks will crack open the secret to easy egg peeling.1. Baking SodaDid you ever think you’d be adding baking soda to a pot of boiling water? Well, that’s exactly what you need to do for easy peeling once the eggs have been boiled. The alkaline in the baking soda will loosen the egg whites from the shell and make peeling a breeze. And don’t worry, the eggs won’t taste like baking soda.2. Ice BathYou’ve probably heard of this one before, and it’s definitely a hack to use. Regardless of how you’ve boiled the eggs, the post-boil ice bath is a must.Fill a large bowl or unused pot with cold water and ice — and we mean LOTS of ice. More than you think you need. Place the eggs in the ice bath and let them soak for a few minutes. The shock of ice cold water will help the egg whites detach from the shell and make peeling an easy process. It will also stop the cooking process, ensuring the eggs aren’t overboiled.3. Crack HackBefore placing eggs in boiling water, gently tap them on the counter or bowl to create a small crack in the shell. Just be careful not to let any egg whites spill out. Boil the eggs as usual and place them in a cold water bath, one at a time. Close the lid on the container filled halfway with water, and shake it like a Polaroid picture. While you’re shaking the container, the shell will peel away from the egg white. 4. Older EggsNo need to wait until the carton of eggs is expired. Just one or two weeks after purchasing your carton of Chino Valley Ranchers eggs is enough. Over time, eggs lose moisture through the pores of their shell, causing the egg to shrink and pulling the membrane away from the shell. When you peel fresh eggs, chunks of egg white are more likely to come off because its layers are firm and tight.

Four Hacks For Peeling Hard Boiled Eggs

Egg Casserole Recipes For Breakfast

Making French Toast isn’t a science. It’s something most of us just slap together with some eggs, milk, and bread. Breakfast will likely turn out fine, and you’ll be on your way to work.But if you woke up craving a mouthwatering, out-of-this-world french toast, then here are a few tips to try.<ol><li>Choose a good quality bread.</li></ol>Standard sandwich bread won’t hold thick custard very well. That’s why you should go for a higher quality bread, such as brioche or challah, French bread, Texas Toast, Cinnamon bread, or croissants for a lighter and crispier french toast. <ol start="2"><li>Get the custard done right.</li></ol>Creamy custard will take your french toast to the next level. Skip the fat free milk, and opt for half-and-half, whole milk, or cream. Aim for ¼ cup dairy per whole egg. Add sugar (or powdered sugar, honey, or maple syrup) and whisk until no egg whites or yolk are visible. Avoid soaking the bread for too long — dip both sides and remove.<ol start="3"><li>Add some flavor.</li></ol>If you’d like an extra kick of flavor, consider adding spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom, and extracts like vanilla or almond, fresh lemon or orange zest, or bourbon or rum.<ol start="4"><li>Use both butter and oil.</li></ol>Use a neutral cooking oil like canola and butter to get the best of both worlds: golden edges with rich flavor. Canola oil is flavorless but has a high smoke point, while butter has flavor but a low burning temperature.<ol start="5"><li>Mind the heat.</li></ol>Avoid overcooking or burning the French toast by preheating a non-stick skillet over low heat. Add butter and then the toast. Keep the temperature between low and medium-low. The Perfect French Toast RecipeTo make the ultimate french toast, you’ll need eight slices of good quality bread, five Chino Valley Ranchers pasture raised eggs, ¼ cup half-and-half (or whole milk or cream), two tablespoons of sugar, one teaspoon ground cinnamon, two teaspoons vanilla extract and butter. To serve the french toast, you’ll need warm syrup, strawberries, and whipped cream.View the full recipe <a href="https://www.thepioneerwoman.com/food-cooking/recipes/a32053545/how-to-make-french-toast/">here</a>.

5 Heartwarming Valentine’s Day Breakfast Recipes

Walk down one aisle in your local grocery store and you’ll see foods labeled “organic,” “all-natural,” “clean”, and “antibiotic-free”. Walk past the egg section and you’ll see cartons labeled “cage-free”, “free-range”, and “pasture-raised”. With so many labels, it can be hard to know exactly what each term means. Some terms are regulated, while others are used for marketing purposes.How Are Pasture-Raised Eggs Special?When it comes to eggs, it’s important to understand what’s so special about pasture-raised and certified humane eggs.&nbsp;Free-range and cage-free eggs have a bright yellow yolk, while pasture-raised eggs have golden orange yolks. This is because pasture-raised hens have at least 108 square feet of outdoor space to roam and graze on days with good weather conditions. Golden yolks not only taste better, but also contain a higher level of vitamins, antioxidants, minerals, and omega-3 fatty acids than conventional eggs.&nbsp; The yolk color will also vary depending on the season. For example, hens eat less in the summer due to high temperatures, but more in the winter to stay warm. Eggs laid during the summer tend to be brighter than eggs laid during the winter.Why Choose Pasture-Raised EggsChino Valley Ranchers takes great care to ensure each hen has access to direct sunlight, fresh air, and healthy feed. Our pasture-raised eggs come from hens free to roam our pastures and to feed on bugs and worms they find outdoors.&nbsp; Each hen is also provided with organic feed designed by an animal nutritionist to ensure hens are healthy and well-fed. The quality of each hen’s daily life will have a direct impact on the quality of eggs produced.Though pasture-raised eggs are more expensive than conventional eggs, they are worth it nutritionally. Eggs are one of the only foods that naturally contain vitamin D, which supports the immune system, regulates hormones, and helps maintain bone strength.&nbsp;Pasture-raised eggs are high in nutrients and should be a staple in every diet. But if they’re out of your budget, cage-free and free-range eggs remain a great option.

Why Pasture Raised Eggs Are Worth It

It’s a new year and many Americans are looking for a quick and easy way to meet their weight loss goals.

One large- to jumbo-sized egg contains 3.5 to 5 grams of protein and virtually no fat.The optimal amount of protein necessary for active adults is 0.5 to 0.8 grams of protein per pound of body weight daily.

A Few Fun & Creative Ways to Prepare Eggs

Apart from reading and deciphering egg carton labels, most consumers don’t give much thought to how chickens are raised on farms across the country. But there are a few fun facts about chickens that may surprise you. <ol><li>Some chicken breeds are nearly extinct.</li></ol>Just like there are many dog breeds, there are also many chicken breeds. Unfortunately, certain species are nearing extinction because industrial farming favors breeds that produce an optimal number of eggs.Maintaining a diverse gene pool and having a wide range of breeds is key for food safety. One breed may have natural resistance to pathogens that could potentially eliminate other&nbsp; breeds.<ol start="2"><li>Most chickens lay about one egg per day.</li></ol>Regardless of how many roosters are in a flock, most chickens can only lay one egg a day. Only in the movies will you see hens laying half a dozen eggs per day. <ol start="3"><li>A chicken’s egg color can often be determined by its earlobe color.</li></ol>Though egg yolk is tied to a chicken’s diet, the overall egg color may be related to the chicken’s earlobes. Different breeds of chickens lay different colored eggs. For example, the Rhode Island Reds, Buff Orpingtons, and Dominiques lay brown eggs, while Polish, Leghorns, and Anconas lay white eggs. Ameraucanas, on the other hand, lay green or blue-tinted eggs.<ol start="4"><li>Chickens slurp grass like spaghetti.</li></ol>Pasture-raised chickens enjoy more sunshine than conventional chickens and lay eggs with higher amounts of vitamin D, beta-carotene, and vitamin A. They’re also lower in cholesterol and saturated fat. <ol start="5"><li>Chickens’ sounds have meaning.</li></ol>You already know that toys and dogs speak to each other, but did you know that chickens also have a language? Spend a day with chickens and you’ll see that specific sounds are associated with particular actions. For example, the warning call of a hawk flying overhead is different from the “I’m about to lay an egg” announcement.<ol start="6"><li>Chickens prefer dust baths.</li></ol>Digging a shallow pit, rolling around in the dust, and flapping dirt up through their wings is just what a chicken wants after a long day at work. Scientists believe chickens do this to maintain proper feather insulation and keep parasites away.

5 Recipes to “Fall” Into Breakfast

Looking back is an opportunity to see how things have changed and to better understand how we got to where we are today. When it comes to breakfast, looking back on the food trends of the past decade we see how creative and exciting breakfast has become. Far from simple scrambled eggs and bacon, the American breakfast has featured a variety of unique foods worth celebrating. Breakfast tacos and burritos&nbsp;Those craving lunch for breakfast have turned to breakfast tacos and burritos. Many fast food chains, like Taco Bell and Chick-fil-A have added breakfast tacos and burritos to their menus. Though the origin of this trend is debated, what is undisputed is how mainstream it has become.&nbsp; Avocado toast&nbsp;This trend was popularized by millennials posting artfully decorated avocado toasts on Instagram while simultaneously bemoaning the expense. Cafes and restaurants have put their own spin on the Instagram star, but the basics include bread, avocado, eggs, salt, lime, and olive oil. Whether you choose to visit a cafe and order the avocado toast for breakfast or make it at home, there’s no doubt it’s a welcome change to the traditional breakfast. Breakfast toastThe breakfast toast has evolved from basic butter and jam spreads, into sweet and savory options featuring eggs, smoked salmon, tomatoes, strawberries, greek yogurt, almond butter, turkey, and hummus. You could create whatever toppings and spread you’d like and no one will look at you sideways.&nbsp; Convenient and portable dishes and drinksOur days have become busier, and breakfast has become shorter. The need for quick breakfast foods has led to the creation of portable dishes and drinks, such as overnight oats, breakfast sandwiches, breakfast cookies and bars, and pre-prepared smoothies. CronutsWho could forget the cronut craze that began in 2013, when chef Dominique Ansel released the cronut at his New York City bakery? The cronut was even named one of TIME Magazine’s best inventions of the year. If you’re feeling nostalgic, <a href="https://www.dominiqueansel.com/the-creations/">order your cronut online</a> from Dominique Ansel’s bakery. Sandwich optionsNowadays, we take breakfast sandwiches for granted. But this breakfast option exploded in the 2010s, with Burger King releasing a French-toast sandwich, Dunkin’ selling the Power Breakfast Sandwich, and even Starbucks launching its sous-vide egg bits. Breakfast all dayAnd so, we are now rewarded with breakfast all day. Whether you skipped breakfast and want to enjoy it later in the day, or whether you simply crave breakfast for dinner, the rules are out and breakfast all day is in.

5 International Egg Recipes For The Travel-Hungry

French mayonnaise — called œuf mayo — was a ubiquitous dish at Parisian bistros, until the cholesterol- and fat-averse decided the egg had to go. To prevent the outright extinction of œuf mayo, the late food critic Claude Lebey stepped in to launch the Association de sauvegarde de l’œuf mayonnaise (ASOM), or the Association to Safeguard Egg Mayonnaise. With friend and journalist Jacques Pessis, Lebey set out to give the dish the gravitas it deserved and enshrine its preparation process. According to ASOM, œuf mayo had to be prepared using large eggs, slathered on liberally, and served with vegetables or crisp lettuce. The duo even introduced annual awards, handing out certificates to Parisian establishments that followed the tradition of œuf mayo. Once the dish was restored to its proper place in Parisian dining, Lebey retired and disbanded the society in 2013. However, after his death in 2017, a group of critics and industry experts decided to revive the organization in his memory and launched the very first Championnat du monde de l’œuf mayonnaise, or World Championship of Egg Mayonnaise. How to make œuf mayoTo prepare the French dish, you’ll need one Chino Valley Ranchers egg yolk, a pinch of salt, a pinch of pepper, a few drops of white vinegar, one generous teaspoon of French Dijon mustard, and 150 ml of vegetable or sunflower oil (but don’t use olive oil). Start by whisking together the egg yolk, salt, peper, vinegar, and Dijon mustard. Next, pour oil into the bowl while whisking continuously. As soon as the oil integrates, add more. Continue adding oil and stirring until the oil is used up. By now, the mixture should be thick like mayonnaise. You could also add garlic and a hint of lemon juice to create a French Aioli (a garlic sauce). Or, you could add capers, onions, parsley, gherkins, and tarragon to turn it into tartar sauce. French œuf mayo is typically served alongside cold meats, such as beef and chicken, and frequently added to tomato and tuna sandwiches.

5 Easy Breakfast Recipes For When You Don’t Feel Like Cooking

Your breakfast sandwich can be as delicious or as boring as you’d like it to be — it’s all up to you. If, however, you want a few simple tips on how to make a breakfast sandwich that will hit the spot each time, then here’s what you need to do.

<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Mind the balance.</li>
</ul>
If you’re using a croissant, then you’ve got to be careful not to overload this delicate type of bread. For one croissant sandwich, stick to two scrambled eggs, one slice of ham, one slice of cheese, salt and pepper, and some hot sauce (if you’d like). The key is to keep the ratio of bread to filling at fifty-fifty with each bite.
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Toast the croissant.</li>
</ul>
You can toast a croissant using a stove top grill, oven, or toaster oven. If using a toaster or oven, slice the croissant after you’ve heated it up — not before. Don’t use a microwave, or you’ll end up with rubber instead of a toasted croissant.
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Properly beat and treat the eggs.</li>
</ul>
Crack the eggs into a separate bowl and use a whisk or fork to blend the yolks and whites together. If you use Chino Valley Ranchers pasture raised eggs, you’ll get a bright orange color that will make your breakfast sandwich even more visually appealing — and nutritious!
Season with salt and pepper after the eggs are in the pan, that way you won’t over season.
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Go low and slow.</li>
</ul>
Use a non-stick pan over low to medium heat to fry your eggs. Add a slice of butter and a bit of olive oil to prevent the butter from burning and to add some flavor. Drop in the eggs and stir slowly and constantly until you see curds forming. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and continue to cook until the eggs reach your desired texture.
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Assemble your creation.</li>
</ul>
Build your sandwich by placing a thin slice of ham, then the eggs, and then a slice of cheese. If you want your breakfast sandwich to have a kick, add some hot sauce — Tabasco or Sriracha, up to you.
<ul>
<li aria-level="1">Enjoy!</li>
</ul>
Last but not least, don’t let the sandwich cool down — savor each bite!

5 Sauce Recipes To Spice Up Your Omelette

Cage-free, free-range, pasture-raised, non-GMO, Organic, conventional, and all natural are just a few labels you’ll see on egg cartons at your local grocery store. If you’re feeling dizzy just reading all of these terms, rest assured you’re probably not the only one. 
Some of these terms are regulated, while others aren’t. If you’re wondering about the difference between cage-free and pasture-raised eggs, here’s what you need to know.
The Basics
About 90% of eggs in the US are caged eggs, which means they come from birds confined to cages with just 67 – 144 square inches of space. They are fed a diet from corn, soy and other grains and don’t have the freedom to enjoy the outdoors.
Cage-free hens have around one square foot of space indoors and also eat a grain based diet often consisting of corn and soy, without access to the outdoors.
Free-range hens have up to 21.8 square feet of space and although are given access to the outdoors, access can be limited. Like caged and cage-free hens, free-range hens also eat a grain based diet consisting of soy and corn. Free range hens are typically associated with Organic production, which does follow the organic standards and the hens are fed a certified organic diet along with access to the outdoors.
Pasture-Raised Eggs
Chino Valley Ranchers pasture-raised hens have access to a minimum of 108 square feet per bird of outdoor pastureland to which native grasses, seeds, bugs, and worms can be found while foraging. They have the freedom to leave the barn early in the morning and enjoy our green pastures, dust-bathing, and plenty of sunshine.
This access to natural sunlight and fresh air also benefits the nutritious content of pasture-raised eggs. Compared to conventional eggs, pasture-raised eggs have been found to contain higher levels of Vitamin E, Vitamin D, and a healthier balance of omega-3 fatty acids. 
Comparing egg yolks of different types of eggs, it’s easy to see how pasture-raised eggs are different. Their egg yolks have a vibrant orange color, making them a preferred choice among top chefs — for both color and quality.
So the next time you’re at the supermarket and you’re wondering which egg variety to purchase, choose pasture-raised eggs — because that’s the way nature intended eggs to be.

The Difference Between Cage-Free and Pasture-Raised Eggs

5 Breakfast Bowls To Supercharge Your Morning

Americans are becoming more health conscious, with eggs being the latest food put under the spotlight. Up until the mid-1900s, eggs were locally produced on small, family-owned farms. Advancements in technology and production practices eventually moved hens into cages and tight living quarters with little to no sunlight. 
As the nutritional value of conventionally grown eggs began to decline, researchers began to look at ways to improve the quality of eggs. Over the past few years, pasture raised eggs have emerged as the quality standard for nutritious and healthy eggs. 
Here are a few reasons why you should consider purchasing Chino Valley Ranchers pasture raised eggs instead of conventional eggs.
Nutritious And Yummy
A 2010 Penn State study found that, compared to conventional hens, pasture raised chickens lay eggs that have twice as much vitamin E, more than double the total omega-3 fatty acids, and a healthier balance of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. 
The high omega fatty acid content contributes to the vibrant orange color of yolks in pasture raised eggs. Other possible reasons for this bright color is exposure to sunlight and a diet rich in nutritious seeds and plants, as well as slugs, worms, and insects.
Terms to Look Out For
When shopping for eggs, it’s important to understand the meaning of different terms and phrases frequently used to label eggs. While some terms, like “cage-free”, “free-range”, “organic”, and “pasture-raised” are regulated, others like “farm fresh” and “natural” are not. Visit the websites of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to learn more about production requirements for regulated terms.
Why Choose Chino Valley Ranchers
Chino Valley Ranchers pasture raised chickens are free to roam outdoors during the day in wide-open fields and eat grass, seed, bugs, and worms. We provide 108 square feet of land per hen, or one full acre for every 400 hens. This wide open space ensures they have plenty of room to forage for bugs and insects, dust bathe, and enjoy the sunshine.
Shop for Chino Valley Ranchers pasture raised eggs at your local grocery store and enjoy eggs the way they should be!

Pasture-Raised Eggs vs Conventional Eggs

Holiday parties may be far behind us, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t treat yourself to dessert every now and then — especially if they call for Chino Valley Ranchers egg whites. Here are a few recipes to keep your sweet tooth satisfied.

This recipe calls for 10 ounces of raw, unsalted cashews (or any other type of nuts you may prefer) and will delight you with its perfect blend of sweet, salty and smoky. You’ll need light brown sugar, white sugar, salt, ground cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, zest and juice from an orange, one large egg white and finely chopped rosemary leaves.

New Year — New Twist on Scrambled Eggs

Grocery stores have been stocking shelves with a wide variety of eggs, including free range and cage free eggs. Demand for eggs laid by humanely-raised hens is increasing across the globe as consumers become aware of the drawbacks of conventional eggs and the benefits of cage free and free range eggs.

Free Range vs. Conventional
Unlike conventional eggs, which come from caged hens deprived of sunlight and natural behaviors such as nesting, perching, and dust bathing, free range hens are free to roam outdoors and enjoy sunlight. Research has actually shown that caged hens exhibit more fearful behavior and are prone to skeletal problems due to captivity. Free range eggs, on the other hand, are regarded as a more humane alternative to conventionally produced eggs.
Unlike conventional eggs, free range eggs will have a more deeply colored yolks because they’re laid by hens fed a nutrient-rich diet.
Growing Demand
According to the January 2021 edition of the WATTPoultry International, “Every major foodservice company now has a global cage-free commitment, as do nine of the 10 largest global manufacturers and eight of the 10 largest hotel chains.” Companies have opted for a 2025 or 2026 deadline for completing their transition to cage free eggs. Global change is underway for the egg production industry, with North American companies leading the way, and companies in Europe, Latin America and Africa following close behind.
