Here are 5 recipes from the 60s & 70s for Campbelled eggs — a breakfast dish created by the Campbell’s Soup company.
Among them, you will find the how-to for Western-style Campbelled eggs — a version that takes the basic recipe (also shown here) and kicks it up a notch with some tasty additions!
A boost for better breakfasts: Canned soup
From the Corsicana Daily Sun (Texas) November 12, 1975
A fitting breakfast food is eggs: little compact containers of high-quality protein, vitamins and minerals. And, an “eggs-cellent” way to serve them is Western-Style Campbelled Eggs.
Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup turns eggs into a tempting recipe no sleepyhead can resist. Whole kernel corn and green pepper strips are eye-opening additions. A sunny sprinkling of Cheddar cheese is the crowning glory.
