Biscuits and ham.
Better yet, biscuits and Virginia country ham.
And really spicy mustard.

I made this french toast for brunch this weekend and it was AMAZING, my guests destroyed it. It holds its heat really well, especially if you have one of those insulated carriers for casserole pans.

Here are my mods, and I think they are a MUST, or else the recipe will be way too rich!
-Use 2% milk not whole
-cut the sugar in the batter in half
-unse only a half stick of butter on the top
-Add fresh ground nutmeg to the batter and the topping
-Add pecans to the topping
-Add cinnamon to the batter

Deviled eggs.
Mini bagels, spread a little whipped cream cheese and add a small slice of smoked salmon (Lox) on
Another favorite (I posted this once before and someone called it "oooh...fat, salt and starch...yum." but they really are good, just not healthy):
Take refrigerator croissants. Unroll. Spread a thin layer of butter or Crisco on. Sprinkle lightly with salt. put a little bit of chopped scallions and diced Virginia country ham. Individually roll each croissant. Bake according to the instructions on the croissant label until golden brown. Good hot or room temp.

I'll take anything - savory or sweet. I've taken quiche, biscuits and jam, strada, muffins, fruit salad, and pasta salad in the past. It just has to be easily transportable and something that can be served at room temperature.

Do you want a dish that is served (e.g. quiche), hand-food (e.g. biscuits), served hot/cold, do you have means to reheat? Give us some suggestions for things you've done in the past so we have a general idea of what you're looking for.

Sweet or savory? And what kinds of recipes have you been making so far?
Off the top of my head, I'd say strata or quiche if savory, or sticky buns/ Melissa Clark's Gooey Butter Cake if sweet.
And, since brunch can sometimes be a fat-fest, this winter fruit salad is great too. I've made it for many brunches and it's always a hit.
