Egg McMuffin Casserole
This is the classic sausage-egg-mcmuffin in casserole form. It's just like any other egg casserole, except you use English muffins instead of bread for the base of the egg casserole. I know, so simple and easy. And different. This one happened by accident when I went to make an egg casserole and we were out of bread...but had English muffins. Problem solved. And easy to … [Read more...]

Just … [Read more...]
Bacon & Caramelized Onion Grilled Cheese
I don't normally spend much time making lunch. Unless I'm making this beautiful sandwich. It's usually made on the weekends...when I don't have to rush the baking the bacon or caramelizing the onions. Or, you could totally make this for dinner too. Would be great with a simple side salad or with some tomato soup. Or if I'm really craving it during the week, I'll get the … [Read more...]
BLT Salad
So. I'm a 'salad-for-lunch-atarian.' I eat salads for lunch almost every day. 6.5 times a week. And the day that I don't have salad, I have bowl of black bean or vegetable soup. Really, just to keep from being burnt out on salads for lunch. I usually throw 2 to 3 veggies on top, depending on what's in the fridge from the sales that week. I sometimes add protein on top - … [Read more...]
Sausage, Potato & Pepper Skillet Dinner
I am raising a bunch of meat and 'taters boys in this house....the proof being in the way that they polished off their sausage and potatoes. This is a meal that I turn to often...whether I make it in the skillet or a slow cooker version, we all love it! Couple notes and modifications for this recipe: Add a chopped onion. I usually do. Completely forgot to this time. … [Read more...]
