Crescent Roll Quiche

In: Daily Meals, Recipes

Okay, this recipe doesn’t make me terribly clever. Plenty of people have done this before, but boy do I feel like a genius for trying it and succeeding.
This was actually an improvisation on my part, but it worked out really well. When a local silicone cooking tools manufacturer had their outlet sale they had a [...]

Dueling Breakfasts

In: Daily Meals

This morning my husband ad I had very different ideas about what sounded good in our breakfast scrambles, so I decided to make two.
Mine, the one on the left, was featured egg whites, mushrooms, onions, ham and green peppers with Laughing Cow French Onion cream cheese melted in. My husband’s scramble is made with whole [...]

Mustgo Bisquick Quiche

I tend to use whatever’s left around from the week of cooking — the vegetables, meats and cheeses that MustGo.
CONFESSION: I love leftovers [...]

Breakfast Scramble

In: Confessions, Daily Meals

CONFESSION: I can’t make an omelet to save my life. Oh, I try. Today I even tried to do the cool flip thing with the pan like all the chefs on TV do, but I learned that’s one move that you have to totally commit to. I’m working my way up to it, though.

Crustless Bisquick Quiche

In: Recipes

An easy-to-prepare (though long to bake) recipe for a super versatile crustless Bisquik quiche.

I Confess…

All my cakes come from boxes. My spaghetti sauce isn't from scratch, and I think making my own pasta and bread (unless it comes from a mix…) is rarely worth the effort. I believe individually frozen chicken breasts and ready-made pie crusts are among the best inventions ever. Through these menus, recipes, tips and recommendations, I hope to show that the options for creative cooking are limitless, even when time and money are not.
