This is one of our favorite breakfast recipes….so easy, and definitely a crowd pleaser.

You make it the night before and let it stay in the fridge overnight, and then pop it into the oven in the morning.

Here’s what you need:

6 slices of bread

1 lb. of cooked sausage

1/2 an onion, diced

1 1/2 cups + sharp cheddar cheese

+++

5 eggs

2 cups Half & Half

2 Tbsp. mustard

Directions:

Layer the first four ingredients. Mix the next four ingredients together and pour over your layers. Refrigerate overnight.

Bake at 350 for 40-50 minutes.

Allow to cool before cutting and serving.

Hope your week has gotten off to a great start!

You guys are just the coolest! Thank you for all your fun birthday wishes this week…the comments and e-mails were such a treat! I had a super day! {I use a lot of exclamation points…and no matter how hard I try, I just can’t seem to part with them. We’re tight, me and my exclamation points. Do you have to consume caffeine before you read my posts?}

!!!!!*******************!!!!!

Thought I would share one of our favorite go-to side dishes. We love this with Mexican meals, chili, picnics, barbecues, etc. It’s a great take on the old classic cornbread.

{In fact, I have been known to eat it for breakfast with some sweet tea!}

MEXICAN CORNBREAD RECIPE

3 cups yellow self-rising corn meal

3 eggs

1 tsp. salt

1-1/4 cup oil

1 large chopped onion

1 can cream-style corn

1-1/2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese

1-1/2 cup whole milk

3 chopped jalapeño peppers

______________

Stir all of the ingredients together and put into a greased baking dish and bake for approximately 40 minutes.

This recipe usually fills one 9 x 13 dish and one 8 x 8 dish.

It freezes wonderfully…and is delicious cold!

{Hence, the perfect breakfast food with sweet tea! }

[A fun option: cut up 1/2 a green bell pepper and 1/2 a red bell pepper and add in before baking....it adds great taste, as well as fun color.]

Let it cool before cutting it into squares.

We have been enjoying this with chili on these cold, January nights that we’ve been having around here.

What have you been enjoying on your table lately?

Blessings~

Everyone has those quick recipes for nights that you just don’t have a lot of time, right?

Taco Pie is one of our quickie favorites….and you can have dinner on the table in less than 30 minutes.

Here’s what you need:

2 lbs. ground beef or turkey

2 packages of taco seasoning

1 medium onion, diced

4 flour tortilla shells

1 lb. shredded cheddar cheese

Toppings:

shredded lettuce

salsa

any other favorite Mexican food toppings you desire!

Here’s how you do it:

Brown meat in a skillet and drain.  Mix in diced onions and taco seasoning and allow to simmer for a few minutes until well combined.

In a baking dish….or if you don’t have a size that will work, a cookie sheet will work in a pinch……put down 1 tortilla shell and a layer of meat. Sprinkle cheese on top.

Repeat the last step until all meat is used and add one more tortilla shell to the top and the rest of the cheese.

Bake in oven at 350 degrees until cheese is melted.

Slice and enjoy!

Hope you guys are having a fun week~
