This breakfast feast is served family style, on a large platter. Breakfast participants can take what they like from the tray of assorted breakfast items and vegetables. I like to think of this as a breakfast-themed charcuterie board, with a number of types of breads, meats, cheeses, and vegetables, served with an assortment of sweet and savory spreads.
The following recipe is meant to serve 6-8 people, although it can be made to serve whatever party size you like.
