Welcome to CookBlogShare week 38. This week’s theme revolves around one of my favourite meals – Brunch! I love to enjoy a leisurely weekend brunch (especially if there are mimosas involved) and am always looking for new and interesting ideas to serve for family and friends.
I have rounded up some recipes from my fellow food bloggers showcasing some delicious recipes for the perfect brunch party.
WHAT IS #COOKBLOGSHARE?
CookBlogShare is a community for food bloggers to share recipes and foodie posts and generally support the food blogging community. The community is centred around the #CookBlogShare linky.
It is a wonderful way for a wide range of food writers, recipe creators and bloggers to come together and share each other’s recipes.
The linky is now hosted regularly by Sisley from Sew White & Chloe from Feast Glorious Feast. New members are always welcome to join so make sure you invite your other food blogger friends!
The last linky was hosted by Helen at Casa Costello who put together a collection of Fruity Bakes.
Each week the host chooses a selection of recipes which have been submitted during the previous week to showcase. This week I’ve chosen some Brilliant Brunch Ideas.
Brilliant Brunch Ideas
Spiced Haddock Rice (Kedgeree)
Spice up your breakfast table with this take on classic Kedgeree from Curly’s Cooking – a tasty haddock and rice dish topped with a fried egg. This is a great hearty and warming dish that’s perfect for colder mornings or when you need some comfort food.
Savoury Egg Muffins With Parma Ham
These Egg Muffins from Lost In Food are not only lovely to look at but perfect for feeding a crowd. Easy to prepare and customisable too, everyone will love them.
Confit Tomato Bruschettas with Pesto & Mozzarella
It’s not breakfast without toast right? These tasty Bruschettas from Feast Glorious Feast would be delicious topped with a poached egg. You could even make a DIY Bruschetta Board so everyone can assemble their own.
Cinnamon Apple Smoothie
Instead of the typical coffee or fruit juice to wash everything down, why not try these delicious Cinnamon Apple Smoothies from Searching for Spice. Lovely and warming, this is the perfect pick me up for a cold morning.
And a few of my own personal favourite Brunch recipes:

THE RULES!
You can link up any recipe or foodie posts you have. Both old and new posts are welcome as long as they have not been linked to #CookBlogShare before. There is no set theme but it is always sensible to think about upcoming seasons and holidays.
It is usually beneficial to link up towards the beginning of the week for maximum benefit to you.
You can link up to a maximum of 4 posts per linky.
Required – Add a link from your post(s) back to the host’s post. E.g. “I have linked this recipe to #CookBlogShare run by Sisley & Chloe which was hosted by Carrie at Carrie’s Kitchen.
Required – For each recipe that you link up, choose at least 2 of the other recipes which have been linked that week, go to the blog post and leave a 5* rating & lovely positive comment. You might want to come back later in the week when more posts have been linked up – but don’t forget!
Required – Please also comment on at least one post from that week’s host. Their linked posts will be marked “HOST” in the title. Please note that a host might request that comments are not left on the linky post as this isn’t always the most beneficial place for a host to feel the love!
Optional – Add the below linky badge to your linked up post. Copy/paste the html in the below box into your post editor or a custom html block to display the badge:
Bonus – There is no set requirement but there are several other ways that you can help share the love with the other members linking up. These can include:
- Pinning the recipe
- Sharing or scheduling a share to your Facebook page
- Sharing or scheduling a share to your Twitter Feed
- Saving the post to other sites like Yummly
- Hitting the heart icon in the bottom left corner if the blogger is using Grow.Me or Slicksteam.
Please note that by joining in, you are giving the #CookBlogShare hosts permission to use your pictures in a roundup and on social media if your recipe is selected as one of our favourites!
The next linky will be hosted by Sisley at www.sewwhite.com.
