Ham and Cheese - our new favorite waffle mix in! We love the touch of sweetness with the savory ham and cheese in the waffles. You can cut up and mix the ham and cheese into the waffle batter OR you can make a ham and cheese waffle sandwich...with thin waffles and ham and cheese in between. I prefer to mix the ham and cheese into the batter because our waffle maker is … [Read more...]
Blueberry Cardamom Scones
Scones - I adore them. I like to pretend that I'm eating them while sipping on a cup of tea at a cafe in London. I can dream for a moment. I can let these delicious scones take me to another place, if just for a moment. These scones are packed with flavor, and moisture! The blueberries, cardamom and ginger are a lovely complement. And the extra juices from the blueberries … [Read more...]
Hashbrown Egg Casserole
I love holiday mornings! I love the laziness, I love the laughter and I love the fun. Whether it's Thanksgiving, or Christmas, or Easter, or whatever other holiday, I love to serve a late breakfast/brunch with a delicious egg casserole. I love these specifically because they can be made the day before and they get better with "age." And they are an easy option for holiday … [Read more...]

Cheesy Zucchini Cups
Grab n Go Snack - Grab n Go Breakfast - Grab n Go Lunch. This one is for my low carb friends...and you can make it even more low carb by using almond flour!

Blueberry Crumble Bars
A pan of these lasted on the counter for approximately 4.7 seconds. The vultures (aka my boys) attacked these blueberry bars with a vengeance...and I quickly regretted not doubling up on these. Now, I know for certain that the next time I make these (likely tomorrow!), I'll double up and make in a 9x13 pan. How to Make Blueberry Crumble Bars - Photo Tutorial Mix up … [Read more...]
Stuffed Breakfast French Loaf
Brinner - just might be our family's favorite kind of dinner. What's brinner? It's "breakfast for dinner" - br-inner! I also love brinners because they usually don't require much thought or energy...but recently I was inspired to use a French loaf with our brinner and the end result --- divine! This is the kind of thing you could order at one of those breakfast places. … [Read more...]
Cinnamon French Toast with Berries
Gone. Wiped out. Polished clean. And there might have been some licking of plates. (Because, when else does mom include sugar with dinner!?!) Pretty much only at a 'brinner' like this! We love breakfast for dinner at our house - love it. And this recent 'brinner meal' brought everyone to the table quickly, and everyone literally cleaned their plates. (Yes, we had a … [Read more...]
3-Ingredient Pineapple Muffins
Yup yup...just 3 ingredients! Self rising flour, sugar and crushed pineapple. I'm all about the time hacks...including not pulling out all.the.baking.things. when you can use self-rising flour instead! Self-rising flour works wonderfully in many recipes, especially this one. I have not experimented with other sweeteners, but think that applesauce or coconut sugar would be … [Read more...]
