Thai Basil Egg White Omelet Bowl
Most days, whether at home or the office I’ll have an Egg White Omelet Bowl for breakfast. A bed of spinach (getting my calcium anywhere I can), a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of fresh herbs and scallions, and an egg white omelet packed with herbs. Today, my herb of choice was Thai Basil which is thriving in our Aero Garden presently. This Thai Basil Egg White Omelet Bowl fits in so nicely with my Healthy Choices plan.

Carrot Cake Breakfast Bread
Carrot Cake Breakfast Bread served with hot comforting coffee makes ‘unseasonably’ seem novel. Let me talk quickly. We are currently experiencing unseasonably cold temps with wind gusts in the….well below our comfort level. My computer has been off and on again with power outages and server issues.

Eggs Florentine {Happy Hollandaise}
In preparation for Christmas morning breakfast I took a pack of our homemade English Muffins out of the freezer. That would open the door to perhaps Bacon, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Sandwiches, Eggs Benedict or if I was lucky Eggs Florentine.

Carrot Cake Energy Bites
I sent Shelby an innocent birthday text (back on May 28th). It went something like this….what’s your favorite kind of cake? She threw me for a loop with her response.

Smoked Sausage Hashbrown Casserole
Mel’s Smoked Sausage Hashbrown Casserole is one of the most popular side dishes at our company potluck lunches. So when I had a potluck of my own to attend this recipe instantly came to mind.

Homemade English Muffins {Bread Machine Method}
I’m as surprised as anyone at how easy it is to make Homemade English Muffins. All while your family sleeps. I had a grin on my face a mile wide when my family came downstairs this morning. Care for an English Muffin? I made these. Hee hee.

Chicken Chilaquiles {with Fried Eggs}
Chicken Chilaquiles. Chee-lah-KEE-less. Chicken-ala-cheese-ness. There are about a bazillion corn tortillas in a package. Have you noticed that? No matter what recipe I make with them, inevitably I will have half a bazillion leftover. That’s what led me to this classic Mexican dish. Chilaquiles are traditionally made from corn tortillas that may have been hanging around for a bit…aka stale.

Spinach & Goat Cheese Quick Bread
Let me tell you about Spinach & Goat Cheese Quick Bread. Sautéed spinach and goat cheese are the signature ingredients yet there’s so much more happening here. Fresh rosemary and thyme, cracked black pepper, garlic and lemon zest are swirled throughout this moist and tender bread.

Parmesan & Herb Quick Bread {with Caramelized Onions}
This month’s issue of Food Network Magazine is all about Quick Breads. Fifty to be exact. I had to throw my hat in the ring and have a go at it. So I made two of them. Two savory breads with fresh herbs and cheeses and aromatics. My kitchen was a swirling aroma happy place.
