Easy Turtle Rolls

Looking for a deicious sweet breakfast or snack. Then try this easy to make Cinnamon Turtle Rolls.
INGREDIENTS:
1 tube of cinnamon rolls 1 Pckg caramel sauce, found in Ice cream topping section 1 Pckg of Chocolate Sauce, also found in I.C. topping section 1 cup of Walnuts, or Pecans

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven. Prepare and bake cinny rolls as package directed, however set aside frosting & refridgerate. I save mine for frosting Cinnamon Raisin Bread, yum! In the last 5 minutes of baking warm your sauces in the microwave. NOTE: i used a new product by Breyer's & although the directions say microwave for 10 secs with cap off, I had to microwave mine for for a total of 40 seconds to get warm enough to pour smoothly.

Drizzle caramel sauce & chocolate sauce, over. Then sprinkle walnuts over & eat with enjoyment. NOTE: you can use Pecans for a sweeter taste. I chose Walnuts to balance the sweetness so its not to overpowering or rich.

Easy Fast Five: Breakfast Edition
Looking to save a little time making Breakfast try these tips and you might just do that!

1. To make scrambled eggs, a restaurant yellow, take 5 eggs , break 3 as normal , take the remaining 2 and drain the egg white from the egg. Add just the 2 yellow yolk to the other 3 eggs, and your scrambled eggs will look restaurant yellow, when done. I dont know how the restaurant does it but this is how I do, and I feel its more natural than adding food color.

TIP: save the egg whites in an air tight container and the next you need only egg whites for that white cake, they will already be separated and ready to go. Just be sure to label the container with not only what , but quantity.
2. To make more moist restaurant style eggs just add a little milk, No it doesn't make more, like mom said, but it does make them moist And not as dry.

3. Do those pre-cooked breakfast sausage patties, seem a little tasteless, try frying them in the Bacon grease you saved, or just cooked the bacon in. Adds a nice flavor that balances the meal.

4. Pancakes and Waffles seem a little boring, try adding a tsp or 2 of an extract flavor, and extracts have little to no calories. Adding Some banana extract is way easier than slicing a banana. Would you mind handing me those Chocolate Chips?

5. Love Bacon but cooking it Strip by Strip seems like too much work, Try slicing the bacon in half or even thirds, then dump and cook it all at once in a pan. Now isn't that easier and less labor intensive than frying bacon slice by slice, ugh. Whatever you have Left is already in pieces for a recipe, too!

And could someone Please pass the bacon? Ha! I LOVE BACON! Just not on my Ice Cream!
Keep It Easy!

Deluxe Breakfast Waffle

As a single working outside the home mom, I dont have the time or the inclination to cook breakfast on the weekday but, when the weekend comes, I typically get creative and busy in the kitchen. When my kids were younger, I spent a lot of time cleaning up those sticky syrup messes, but with this recipe, you won't have to worry about sticky messes,since the syrup is inside with everything else.

Ingredients:
2 cups of Baking mix, (Jiffy, Bisquick, Pioneer, or off brand) 1/4 Cup Milk 1 Egg 2 Tbsp of Oil 1 1/2 cup of Pancake Syrup 2 eggs, scrambled
3 slices of precooked Bacon

TIP: double the recipe, make extra then freeze individually for a grab-n-go Breakfast on the weekdays. Kids can toast them on low, like Pop-Tarts, or Microwave them.

Directions:
Preheat heat your Waffle Iron 1st Scrambled 2 eggs & set aside, 2nd cook bacon in microwave on high for 30 seconds, dry with a paper towel, & crumble, then set aside.
In a bowl mix the baking mix, milk, egg, then add the oil and syrup. Mixture will be lumpy. Then add the eggs and bacon. Use a measuring cup and pour 1/2 Cup of batter into the waffle iron, for each waffle. I prefer mine crispy so I cook mine twice as long.

TIP: I placed my waffle iron on top of 3 layers of Paper towels, to catch batter drippings. Just don't leave it unattended, they may call it a fire hazard. I have had no fire issues but still do be careful. Clean up is a breeze though, by doing this.


It took me 30 minutes to serve 3 kids & me. And there was No need for syrup since it was already sweetened with syrup. Easy clean-up is a plus. Serve with some fruit, and Orange juice & you'll have a well-balanced breakfast which gives plenty of energy for your busy weekend.

Potato Benedict Scramble
 I don't have the opportunity to cook breakfast on weekdays usually its a bowl of cereal or fruit. Typically On the weekends though I try to cook breakfast of some sort, from beignets, waffles to eggs. Here is one breakfast dish I came up with after having something similar at a famous restaurant. On the easy scale its not super easy but more of a moderately easy. It is 30 minutes to the table,
So easy enough to share it here, prep is kept simple with the Use of convenience foods.
To serve 4 Ingredients:
6 Hashbrown Rectangles 8 Eggs 8 Slices Bacon, I used Pre-cooked, Crumbled 8 Breakfast Sausage Links, Brown and Serve, crumbled 1 Gravy Mix packet 1/2 Cup Shedded Cheese Salt and Pepper to taste 
Directions:
Preheat oven 425* Bake the hashbrown rectangles in the oven for 20-25 mins.
Meanwhile brown the sausages in a small fry pan, crack and mix the eggs. And prepare the gravy mix according to mix directions.
TIP: to avoid lumpy gravy be sure to mix the powder miix with cold water first before adding it to the boiling water.

Arrange the pre-cooked bacon on a paper plate to microwave it for 1-2 minutes. Cook & Scramble the eggs , remove the sausage from heat set aside. Remove the bacon from the microwave. Remove the hashbrowns from the oven.
Assemble your benedict
Place the hashbrowns on your plate 1 for kids and 2 for adults.
Then top with eggs then the bacon and sausage cover all with Gravy and top with about 1/8 cup shredded cheese per person, season with salt & pepper to taste.

While there are a few steps to this meal. Its a good filling satisfying weekend breakfast. It is definitely worth the trouble.
