# Quail Egg Poutines Iamafoodblog's Breakfast Poutine is a Gourmet Take on the Montreal Snack By Jana Pijak | Published 2015-06-02 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/breakfast-poutine References: [iamafoodblog](http://iamafoodblog.com/the-ultimate-breakfast-poutine-fries-crispy-quail-eggs-cheese-curds-and-bacon-gravy/) The popularity of morning meals has made breakfast poutine a popular dish among fans of the iconic Montreal snack. Iamafoodblog's recipe takes things one step further with artisanal quail egg ingredients that make for a gourmet dish. Though artisanal, this breakfast poutine recipe is easy to create at home and will not break the bank -- much like a meal at your favorite brunch spot might. Made from a package of frozen french fries, sliced bacon and a tablespoon of flour, this hearty breakfast is a great source of protein and is incredibly tasty. Once placed in a skillet, this mixture is blended with bacon fat, chicken stock and four to six quail eggs. The recipe is garnished with a blend of salt and freshly ground pepper and cheese curds that add to its rich flavor. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.6/10 - Popularity: 4% | Activity: 7% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Gourmet Take:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore unique ingredients or preparation techniques to create gourmet versions of traditional dishes. - **Easy Homemade Recipes:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop simple and affordable recipes that can be easily made at home, providing an alternative to expensive restaurant meals. - **Protein-rich Breakfasts:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create protein-packed breakfast options that not only taste good but also provide essential nutrients to start the day. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Experiment with unconventional ingredients and cooking methods to attract food lovers seeking unique culinary experiences. - **Hospitality and Restaurants:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Offer breakfast poutine and other gourmet breakfast options at affordable prices to draw customers away from traditional brunch spots. - **Frozen Food:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop and market frozen breakfast poutine kits with high-quality ingredients for consumers seeking a quick and convenient breakfast solution. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Seasoned Quail Eggs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seasoned-quail-eggs.md) - [Meaty QSR Poutines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arbys-poutine.md) - [Flavored Pickled Quail Eggs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pickled-quail-eggs.md) - [Fried Egg-Flavored Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fried-egg-potato-chips.md) - [Viral Egg Tasting Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/egg-flights.md) - [Frozen Poutine Poppers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poutine-popper.md) - [Convenient Protein-Packed Breakfasts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wecook-egg-bites.md) - [Convenient Scrambled Egg Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/just-crack-an-egg-1.md) - [Spicy Pizzeria Poutines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buffalo-popcorn-chicken-poutine.md)
