We LOVE to cook! Our homemade organic-gourmet breakfasts bring guests back over and over again. (Rusty (pictured), has been here more than 15 times.) Eve’s Garden has an organic garden. Depending on the season, every breakfast has fresh ingredients from our gardens. We also get our delicious eggs, cheese and yogurt from our friend at a local ranch, Z-Bar Farms.
We like to make a big healthy breakfast as most guests are on their way to Big Bend National Park and we want to provide them with lots of energy for those gorgeous hikes!
When making a reservation we always ask if you have any dietary needs. We are happy to accommodate vegetarians, vegans, diabetics, people who just don’t like onions, or any special requests.
Other local food providers with whom we cooperate:
Blue Water Natural Foods, Alpine, TX
Big Bend Coffee Roasters, Marfa
Big Bend Honey, Alpine
Miller Meat Market, Ft Stockton (they process local Bison and wild venison from Alaine’s Dad)
Pickle Creek Market, Marathon (caters events here at E’s G)

Noble and Alaine model new aprons in our hand built kitchen. Noble and Alaine got officially married on their 10th anniversary last year. One of our wedding gifts was this set of matching aprons embroidered with “Mrs. Baker” and “Mr. Baker.” Cute because we love to bake, funny because Noble’s last name Is Baker!

With two separate organic gardens, we have home grown tomatoes most of the year! If Alaine could only eat one food for the rest of her life, it would be home grown tomatos! Nothing better.

When serving a higer carbohydrate breakfast like french toast or pancakes we like to accompany it with our high protien breakfast custard made with local milk, local eggs, and just a little bit of sugar, topped with fresh in-season fruit (when possible). This recipe is based out of one of our favorite old hippy cookbooks: The Junkfood Alternative.

Kate’s Sister Rosemary invented this pancake recipe. Rosemary owns a B & B in the Hill country. With whole wheat flour, ricotta cheese and buttermilk, can’t go wrong. We serve it with a lemon sauce (that is custard-like). On the side is a homemade greek yogurt from our friend Sally over at Z-Bar ranch. This morning we served the yogurt with apples from our orchard and local pears out of Alpine.

At Eve’s Garden we take Martha Stewart’s baked pear recipe and out-fancy even Martha. This hearty breakfast included those hand-carved pears (with half of the cream and sugar that Martha uses), mini-quiches with swiss chard from Kate’s garden and local eggs from our friend Sally at Z-Bar ranch just outside Marathon, and homemade scones with fresh and dried cranberries (soaked in amaretto) and orange, orange zest and almonds. Served with locally made marmalade.
