You love the calzone for lunch, and now it has been re-imagined as a delicious brunch dish.

Blackened Leeks with Asparagus and Boiled Eggs Recipe

Georgian Cheesebread
Add an unexpected international twist to your Easter brunch menu with this traditional bread from the Republic of Georgia. This Georgian cheese and egg bread is best served hot. Tear off a piece of the fluffy crust and dunk it into the cheesy well in the center of the bread. This savory pastry is made in Georgia with a mixture of imeruli and sulguni cheeses, but this recipe provides a suitable substitute of mozzarella and tart feta cheese.
Sausage and Broccoli Rabe Frittata
Hot Italian sausage and broccoli rabe are an expected second course in many Italian homes. Pair these two items with eggs to create a sweet and savory Easter brunch dish. For the prettiest presentation, let the frittata cool for a few minutes in the skillet before removing it. As the sausage and broccoli rabe frittata cools, the top will deflate and the edges will release from the sides of the skillet.
Bacon and Egg Pie
This dish may be called comfort food. There is something about the combination of bread, eggs, and bacon that has cross cultural appeal and is immediately associated with breakfast. This New Zealand dish is a wonderful twist to add to your Easter brunch. The combination of the flaky pastry with the yellow yolks and salty bacon is displayed beautifully in this mouth watering bacon and egg pie.
