i am trying to think of good easy breakfasts for the mornings.
i love the mini ham and egg cups.
i love the greek yogurt, honey, fruit, and "just the clusters"
i even feel pretty good about peanut butter and jam english muffins or toast....
but i need to add a few new items to my list...
i just came up with this one this morning:
You know these little babies, from trader joes, right?
these are the "not as cute" sister of the chocolate version :) but still, very good, and perfect for my idea....
well, I took them out around dinner time the night before,
and let them thaw for a few hours.
by the time the kids were in bed, they weren't frozen anymore and i opened them up.
yep, just unrolled them.
when they were flat and triangle shaped(long triangle),
i layed a few thinly sliced peices of ham and a sprinkle of cheddar cheese on it
and rolled it back up, very roughly.
i didn't seal the meat and cheese in or anything.
then i placed the little dough roll ups into a muffin tin,
sprinkled them with TJ's 21 seasoning salute,
covered it with a dish towel and put it in the fridge til morning.
In the morning i just pre-heated to 350, and baked until golden-darkish brown.
like 20 minutes, i think.
they were great!
Jake ate 2. and some blueberries.
Ty ate 1. and some blueberries.
Ella cried and ate some blueberries. she's still sick :(
I will let you know how they were the next day.
my goal is to be able to make a batch and use them for 2-3 days for before school
I am not a big morning cooker....for now.
Do you have any ideas for quick, healthy, morning goodness?
we do a lot of smoothies here: froz. fruit, plain yogurt, protein powder, milk, and a little agave or honey. I throw in a handful of fresh baby spinach and they have NO IDEA. Sometimes I freeze ahead breakfast burritos and roll them up in foil sheets. Thaw them the night before then warm 'em up in the oven!
