an eggs-cellent Time for BreakfastAlmost half of all consumers strongly agree they enjoy breakfast at non-traditional times, according to Technomic, and a significant slice of diners eat breakfast items as an afternoon snack. If you currently offer a breakfast menu, try and offer those items throughout the day to take advantage of this growing trend. If you don’t offer a breakfast menu, try adding some quick grab-n-go sandwiches for egg lovers on the run. Let them customize it: more than 80% of consumers say that’s a main factor in their choice of restaurants. Americans spend only 12 minutes on average eating breakfast, according to NPD, so speed of service appeals to these busy consumers. Sandwich prep can be done easily and quickly, even in limited space.

sandwich these into a Busy DayBreak out of the breadbox to create breakfast sandwiches that differentiate your menu from the competition at every hour of the day. Upscale breads such as brioche and ciabatta are currently rising on menus, (up 22% and 34%, respectively). Or go way beyond the usual and use a variety of different starches that will bring a welcome buzz to your restaurant, like waffles, pancakes, donuts, French toast and more.

• Fluffy frittata
• Garden vegetable patty on English muffin

keep it real and AuthenticWaking up the taste buds each morning has become ever easier as ethnic ingredients traditionally found on lunch and dinner menus make an easy leap to the breakfast menu. Latin flavors exploded with a 50% growth in the last year, according to Datassential, and Mexican breakfast items such as burritos and huevos rancheros racked up double digit growth numbers. Try a quick and easy variation on Stuffed Carnitas and Egg Nachos with fluffy scrambled eggs, zesty pork carnitas, spicy refried black beans, melted Chihuahua cheese, sliced green onions in a rich taco sauce. Serve with a refreshing cilantro lime sour cream.

for the Adventurous eaterMore diners are making bold meal choices, and their interest in ethnic fusion dishes continues to influence every part of the menu. From an empanada full of eggs, cheese and chorizo to a French-Vietnamese bahn mi sandwich to a wasabi-infused cream cheese on a bagel, there’s no confusion about why fusion appeals to many more palates. While a solid one out of four consumers (28%) strongly agrees they are ordering more ethnic foods and flavors today than they were one year ago, more than two-fifths (43%) of diners ages 18 to 34 are upping their purchases of ethnic foods.

a healthy Wake Up CallSuper foods and healthy ingredients are always on the sunny side of the breakfast menu; according to Mintel, 64% of consumers are looking for healthy options when dining out. Eggs and potatoes are naturally gluten-free, providing a healthy opportunity for operators to easily satisfy customers looking for ‘free-from’ choices – one in three adults reports they are trying to cut back or avoid gluten. Grill or roast vegetables for an omelet or frittata bursting with benefits. Or take on the superfoods with a vegetable and protein smoothie…a super smart choice to start the day, as an energy-boosting lunch or as a pick-me-up snack.
• Great taste, made with real, farm-fresh eggs
• Pasteurized eggs to eliminate raw egg risks
• 2x labor savings for greater efficiency and a bigger bottom line
• Always ready to use

whiten upEgg whites can open the door to diners looking for healthier alternatives, who are willing to pay a premium for it. Restaurants offering egg whites charge $1 more on average than for traditional whole egg items, and gain new customers as a result. The key is availability: research shows that 63% of egg consumers would order egg whites if they were more available on the menu, so get cracking!
Preheat oven to 425˚F. Heat 1 tbsp olive or canola oil in over-safe nonstick saute pan over medium heat. In small bowl, mix 12 oz liquid egg whites with 1 tbsp chopped sun-dried tomatoes, 8 oz chopped fresh spinach, 1 tbsp chopped onion, salt and pepper. When oil is hot, pour egg mixture into saute pan. Remove pan from burner and place in hot oven. Bake 5-7 minutes, or until lightly browned and fluffy. Remove from oven. Slice into 8 wedges.
