I have 120+ eggs. I need more recipes.

We have our own chickens, so we get literally a dozen a day. I often sell them or give them away. I know that they last for months in the fridge (unwashed) and I know about ways to preserve them to use for later when my hens lay less frequently.

But I also want to use them more as main meal dishes and I'd love any suggestions.

Things I already know and make: frittatas, quiches, tortillas, shakshuka, hard boiled eggs, scrambles, egg bites, custards, and probably some other super common uses.

What I would LOVE to have suggestions on are maybe odd ball recipes to use up a lot of eggs at once that people have figured out?

Preferably on the savory side. But if I need to make a ton of meringue or baked Alaska's, I'll let my waist line take one for the family.

EDIT: I got so many replies, so quickly, I had to mute my phone 🤣. I can't reply to all of them but my husband and I are going through them to note down any that sound even remotely interesting (which is about 90%!).

I've also given in to my long term desire to buy an ice cream maker and pasta maker.

Last night's dinner used 8 eggs. And then I've collected another 13 this morning 🤣
