So today, in preparation for the main brunch event, we need to talk about how adorable, delicious, and necessary BRUNCH CUPS are. Brunch cups, as I’m calling them, start with a little puff pastry tucked into a muffin tin. Then we are layering the puff pastry with a quick schmear of creamy Swiss-ified cheese sauce, an egg, and some diced ham. Finally, we are baking it all together into something adorable, delicious, and brunchy. A sprinkle of chives, salt, and pepper on top would make you look kinda fancy, too. We made a mega ALDI run before this ham / egg / cheese brunch cup operation. Hello, brunch headquarters. Most notable finds were the ham, which is spiral-sliced and hickory-smoked (yum), and the eggs. I love ALDI eggs – lovely organic cage free large brown eggs that do not cost your life savings. Thank you, ALDI.

Is it just me or does ALDI have the most loyal cult following ever? My friends who are obsessed with ALDI are – how do I say this – REALLY, REALLY OBSESSED with ALDI. Are you in this mega ALDI fan club? What do you buy there? And why? If you are in the Twin Cities like me… did you know they have a newly renovated Roseville location? Um, yeah. Let’s talk. And eat these drippy, buttery, thick little brunch cups. Win-win! Thank you to ALDI for sponsoring this post! 4.8 from 24 reviews
