This is a quiche even my kids like because it contains two of their favorite ingredients–cheese and bacon. It’s quick to put together and pop in the oven before the kids are even up. It’s not an everyday breakfast,just a nice treat and change up to our regular menu. 1 frozen pie crust, do not…
Breakfast
Blackberry Freezer Jam
This week Texas weather hit an all-time high of 70 degrees. After going through three weeks of temperatures below 20 degrees, we Texas are breaking out the shorts and flip-flops! Ah, spring is on the horizon! Not really though—I checked the weather just now and in a few days we will be back down to…
Better Breakfast: Steel Cut Oats
When I began my quest to break away from the cold cereal rut, oatmeal was a natural choice. I started my family out with unsweetened instant oatmeal, adding a little bit of cinnamon and all-natural applesauce to taste. This was healthier than the instant flavored oatmeal that they preferred, but I am trying to get…
Plum cake
When my husband and I were missionaries in Hungary we simply adored eating Hungarian plum tart. I found this recipe last year which uses American ingredients. I tweaked it a bit to make it healthier, reducing the sugar and using whole wheat flour. I was happy to be able to share this old favorite with…
Chocolate Gravy and Biscuits
If you’re not from the South or have relatives from here, you may have not heard of chocolate and biscuits. It’s sweet, delicious, dangerous, and leaves chocoholics wanting more. A true Southern delicacy. Forget Nutella on croissants–this puts that to shame! Start breakfast off right by popping the biscuits in the oven to cook and…

These homemade granola bars are a fantastic alternative to the store-bought variety which are packed with preservatives. Plus, the recipe can be adjusted very easily to accommodate taste and/or supply. Add in toasted coconut, dates, almonds or other mini m&ms! The…
Better Breakfasts: Frozen Yogurt
Two years ago I started baking my own bread, and my concept of a healthy meal changed radically. I realized that my family was eating a whole lot of processed food, and I began to think about replacing more than just our white bread. One of the last bastions to fall has been our cold…
Healthy Strawberry Muffins
I love this recipe for the sheer fact that it’s brilliance. Muffins in a healthy form! I originally got this recipe from Pinterest, but added a couple different ingredients. This recipe is so simple, quick, and perfect for the single lady or the mom looking for a quick breakfast. Healthy Strawberry Muffins Makes 10 muffins…
Cinnamon Chocolate Scones with Mock Clotted Cream
When the clock says it is almost dinner time and I haven’t even formulated a plan about what we should eat yet, I turn to something quick, tried, true, and simple. Although it may sound grand, our British Tea Party menu is a family favorite that I can pull together in about 30 minutes, working…
Better Breakfasts: Kefir
Our family recently discovered Kefir in our search for better breakfasts. My husband and I used to drink it when we lived in Eastern Europe, so I recognized the taste even though I didn’t recognize the name. Kefir is known to be one of the top 10 superfoods. It is a natural, highly effective…
