This week on The Shiksa in the Kitchen, I’ll be focusing on one of my very favorite food subjects…
BRINNER!
Meaning Breakfast for Dinner, of course. 
My family loves having breakfast for dinner. We do it a couple of times a month because it’s fun, easy, and lighter than a big heavy dinner meal. I thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite brinner recipes before we head into our Passover holiday planning. I’ll be sharing some brand new brinner recipes, as well as favorite dishes from the archives.

Thank you to all who entered!
We are a Waffle family. Cinnamon Waffles are our favorite. YUM!
My family loves chocolate chip pancakes for dinner!
Eggs over easy, latkes, and broiled mushrooms and tomatos with fresh olives.
I love to make waffles. Their healthy and fun to make with my children. <3
My favorite brinner would be buttermilk pancakes, sausages, and hashbrowns with cheese and onions. Simple comfort food at it’s best.
I love a cheese omelet with a side of bacon, but I remember my mom having a waffle iron and making waffles when I was really young – SO good!
Banana Waffles, or Strawberry Waffles are delicious. My grandchildren love waffles!
I love love love pancakes for brinner!! I read Pancakes Pancakes!! By Eric Carle to my son before making brinner & then after
Pancakes!
Waffles are not just a breakfast food. You can make them for dinner also. You have to be creative and love waffles as my family does.
Waffles with peanut butter and Nutella
Our favorite brinner dish? waffles — of course!! With eight children, you’d better believe we had waffles a lot! Actually, I inherited my mother’s WWII era BHG cookbook, and the recipe for cornflake waffles clearly states that waffles make a great and economical supper — that’s what we called it in the old days. I also inherited her Sunbeam waffle baker, and you can imagine that it is on its last legs (I’m 60 and mom is baking waffles in heaven). Sure would love a new one, so I am sharing!
MY Favorite “brinner”: Vegetable and potato frittata topped with parmesan cheese.
Perfect with a dry Riesling!
My KIDS favorite brinner: pumpkin waffles with extra butter and syrup.
Favorite brinner food is matzo brei, bit waffles would be good too. Will share this great idea on Facebook too, Tori.
Blintzes (potato/onion) with butter and sour cream….oh, and BACON!
bacon, eggs, hash browns and toast
My fav brinner would be eggs, hashbrowns, bacon or sausage, grits & toast with jelly
Of course if I had this beauty of a waffle maker, I would have yummy waffles with bacon or sausage 
YUM~
I shared on facebook
I love breakfast any time of day. Red Velvet Waffles, crispy bacon, fresh orange juice with coffee fills the bill.
I looooove eggs and bacon! Tweeted as well!
Our fave brinner is fried chicken and waffles! The kids love this dish and think wrapping up the fried chicken breasts in the waffles is fun.
Just what we had tonight: waffles with choice of add-ins before closing the lid: bananas and walnuts or shards of turkey ham and swiss.

Waffles and syrup with sautee’d breakfast sausage incorporated in the batter,,along side over-easy eggs..ahhhh
I love brinner! Omelets (bacon and cheddar, ham and swiss, brocolli and cheddar) with home fries. Quiche of all kinds with fruit. French toast with fruit. Also fried egg sandwhiches with cheese. I do brinner about 2 X/month depending on my groceries!
an omelette with cheddar cheese inside and topped with onions, tomatoes and avocado and pancakes if I’m feeling really inspired. Or left over breakfast casserole.
French Toast! I’m trying your Challah French Toast Recipe tonight!
bacon, eggs and toast
Fried chicken & waffles!
french toast with cinnamon sugar (and without syrup)
Chocolate chip pancakes or chocolate chip waffles! YUM!
I also facebooked it and retweeted it.
Our favorite brinner is my homemade spinach, mushroom, onion and emmenthaler quiche wrapped in a flaky crust.
my family loves breakfast for dinner. Love to make unique waffles and pancakes all the time playing with ingredients I have in the kitchen cabinets or fridge. Anything from tropical mango and coconut to mixtures with corm meal and cranberries…my family will then give me a thumbs up to let me know if a new recipe is a family keeper..
I love brinner! It was always a special treat when Mom made brinner – eggs, fried corn mush, sliced tomatoes – yummmmm!
Pancakes and bacon!
Would LOVE to win this! My favorite ‘brinner’ would probably be something with eggs.. Usually eggs with tomato and baby spinach, and lots and lots of freshly ground black pepper.
My husband and I also love the traditional ‘Turkish breakfast’ of boiled eggs, sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, white (feta-ish) cheese, bread, tea, etc.
Shared on my FB wall, too! <3
Any kind of waffle sandwich, but I guess an “official” brinner would be an egg and cheese waffle sandwich. YUMMY!
We usually do eggs, bacon, and cinnamon rolls or french toast. Sometimes pancakes or biscuits. We would love to do waffles but we need a waffle iron!
For dinner I really enjoy and omelet with tomatoes, onions, and feta cheese, although I must say a waffle with strawberries makes a fantastic dessert.
Scrambled eggs with co-jack cheese and toast made from homemade bread.
Waffles because I dont like many other foods, much love. Praying for a winning e mail.
Steak, eggs, and fried potatoes. My mom would also make this sometimes for brinner when we were little.
Our favorite is homemade corned beef hash, homefries and ‘dippy’ (over easy) eggs. Takes a bit of pre-planning to prep the corned beef but it’s so worth it! I also make mashed potato waffles with chili on top.
Our favorite brinner is peanut butter pancakes, sausage, bacon and home fries.
Also shared on my Facebook wall!
We love eggs for dinner, and have it often!
Waffles with strawberries and real whip cream!
French toast with mascarpone and strawberries — sooo decadent (and soooo easy, which makes mom very happy )!
Matzobrei with maple syrup, now that’s brinner, and it’s even kosher!
Blueberry multigrain pancakes with bacon!
We mix it up to keep Brinner fresh. Sometimes pancakes, Sometimes waffles, sometimes french toast, whatever we’re in the mood for at the time. Always with a side of juice and/or fresh fruit.
also on my wall, and retweeted:)
I love to have birdsnests (thick cuts of bread with the middle cut out and an egg fried in the middle) with a little sriracha sauce, some bacon and coffee! Yum!
I tweeted and shared on my facebook page. Did it after I made the post
