Easy Cheesy Breakfast Casserole

Easy Cheesy Breakfast Casserole

I pulled out an old family favorite for this post, our Easy Cheesy Breakfast Casserole. After all, who doesn’t love hash browns, eggs, and two kinds of cheesy goodness punctuated by your choice of sausage, ham, or bacon? Perfect for lazy weekend mornings or impressing brunch guests without breaking a sweat.

Bacon Wrapped Cheese Stuffed Hot Dogs

Bacon Wrapped Cheese Stuffed Hot Dogs

It’s been a while since I’ve willingly eaten any hot dog other than at a ballpark. (I miss the St. Paul Saints now that I’m in Atlanta!) Due to the generosity of others, we’ve found ourselves with an abundance of hot dogs. Most of the kids like them as is, of course, but as an adult, I needed a little incentive. I decided to revive a childhood fave: Bacon Wrapped Cheese Stuffed Hot Dogs.

Simon Pearce Vermont Cheddar Soup with Simon Pearce's Rory's Scones

Simon Pearce Vermont Cheddar Soup

I’ve become a pretty big fan of Simon Pearce’s Restaurant and an even bigger fan of the Simon Pearce Vermont Cheddar Soup. And the weird thing is, I’ve never been to the Mill at Simon Pearce, the restaurant in Quechee, Vermont. And never had their Simon Pearce Vermont Cheddar Soup there, either. But no matter, I can have it right here in Minnesota (you betcha) where it seems just as at home on a snowy March night.
