Mealtime Memories
Fat Tuesday Crepe Nights: a tradition of friendships and gathering of people to create a sweet treat.
These crepes are my trademark meal! I began making crepes my first semester in college as a way to meet new people and create a gathering place for friends.
Little did I know then the impact that tradition would have on my future. Over the decade of my single life as an early adult I created over 57,000 crepes, 18 marriages and a multiplicity of friendships. [Read more…]
Saturday Morning Breakfast Crepes: simple, sweet, savory breakfast treat.
Growing up every Saturday my younger brother would make breakfast crepes for the entire family. This became a tradition that everyone looked forward to and since many other traditions have spurred from. [Read more…]
Hearty Hash Brown Omelette is the perfect mix of all of your favorite breakfast foods, scrambled eggs, hash browns, and bacon together in one pan.
We’ve all made a breakfast casserole before with eggs, bread, and sausage but does anyone really, really like it? I can’t tell you how many of my friends and family say they have to choke it down. This hearty hash brown omelette is not that type of casserole!

This Hearty Hash Brown Omelette is a mix of everything about breakfast that you love! It is simple to make and feeds an army, literally. I love making this dish for blessing open houses because I can prepare it ahead of time and toss it in the oven. It is also a great dinner option because my children not only eat it for dinner, but devour it for breakfast too. Plus it tastes just as good heated up as it does fresh from the oven.
Give it a try-it will be added to your favorites in no time flat!

Baguette French Toast is a sophisticated twist on a traditional breakfast food.
I was shocked when I saw this simple fun twist to a basic breakfast food. I’m always looking for fun ways to feed my family and sometimes it helps to make it a little fancy. This baguette French toast is a perfect switch up in your regular meal planning.

I love how simple it is to make and how much my little family loves it! Sometimes I’ll buy two baguettes and freeze what we don’t eat because my kids love eating it for breakfast too.
My only advice is don’t wait too long to make it after buying the baguettes because they only stay soft for a day, maybe two. Last time I purchased baguettes for French toast I waited too long and had to saw through the bread which immediately crumbled. We made the most of it and took it to the duck park to share with our feathered friends but had to stomp on it to break it into smaller pieces.
I love decorating them with powdered sugar and fresh berries but you could be so creative and your family will think you are the best! So change up your dinner routine and add a little breakfast to the menu. I love this meal because I always have breakfast for the following day/days to come.
Give them a try! You will love this easy addition to your meal planning.
