Easy Egg Casserole



I can't believe I have not posted this recipe!

The only reason I know I haven't is because I was on here looking for it because I wanted to make it for the cherubs to have in the morning for breakfast.

They're testing at school and the teachers have said, "Make sure you feed your brain with a good breakfast!" 

This momma takes it to heart and is both challenged and called to make sure my sweet cherubs have plenty of rest and a great breakfast so they can do their best on their tests!

This breakfast casserole is so easy and re-heats very well.

I wish I could say it's my recipe, but it's from my friend, Guy.  I had it first at her house when she hosted a cookie exchange years ago!

Guy's Breakfast Casserole

6 eggs
2 cups milk
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. dry mustard
1 lb. sausage, cooked (or other breakfast meat of your choice)
1 bag croutons (I use the New York Style Texas Toast croutons)
1 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese

Mix eggs, milk, salt, dry mustard together.  In a greased casserole dish, layer croutons, sausage, and then the cheese.  Pour the egg mixture the layers.  Cover and refrigerate overnight.  Bake at 350 for 45-50 minutes or until it's done.

I have actually made this where I don't refrigerate it overnight -- we're so hungry, we can't tell the difference!  Seriously, the croutons are more crouton-y, but that's ok with us -- we like it!

Do what you like!

Charleston's Style Potato Soup

Love Charleston's! Love everything I ever eat at Charleston's. Love the blackened fish sandwich, which isn't listed on the menu but you can still order it, with glazed carrots. Love the carrots! Love the chicken fingers;  the best there are!  I rarely order them -- because it's not a healthy choice, but oh boy!  They're delish! Love the honey glazed croissant. L.O.V.E! Love the pork chops with smashed potatoes and glazed carrots. Love the potato soup! Seriously adore it! It's thick. It's simple. It's delicious! We don't have a Charleston's where we live. Boo hoo! Here's a close replica of Charleston's baked potato soup.  I found it at www.tastebook.com   I made some adjustments to the recipe.  Not because I think I "know," but because I didn't have everything on hand nor can my sweet girl cherub have some of the ingredients.  I made it and didn't tell my family what it was su...

Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup

 I've been to eat at Neiman Marcus one time. It was really good! "Everyone" talks about the Neiman Marcus cafe and the things they love from there. Because I've only been once, my variety of selection is limited! However, I have had lunch with friends that serve this Neiman Marcus soup recipe. It is so delicious that I wanted to pass it along to you! If your weather is like our weather, one day you're making soup and the next your grilling out!

Mixed Nut Butter

I've been making almond butter for the Mr. some time now. I used to make it in my (very) old food processor. Matter of fact, my dad bought the food processor for me before I ever got married . . . from a garage sale! So I know it's at least 20 years old, but probably older! I bet when my dad did that he had no idea I'd still be using it! That's money well spent, huh? Recently, thought, the Mr. saw a "suggestion" to make mixed nut butter. There you go; enough said! I've already made him two different kinds recently. Regardless of your preference, I don't think you can go wrong! The first I made was a combination of walnut and pecan Now, I've made a mix of cashew and walnut Next will be pecan and almond I think. It's so easy. Follow the general directions from the post about making almond butter: http://karen-proverbs31.blogspot.com/2012/01/almond-butter.html There's a bit of difference, but on...
