During the busy week, our breakfasts are usually a quick do-it-yourself kind of thing. Well actually, my breakfast is usually just coffee! We all have crazy schedules, so it is nearly impossible to sit down for a family breakfast. On the weekends, though, we make it a point for all six of us to sit down and enjoy breakfast together. On of our favorite breakfasts is biscuits and gravy, and this Spicy Sausage Gravy Recipe is absolutely perfect for our spice loving taste buds!
So, today is Mother’s Day. A lot of moms say that the last thing they want to do on Mother’s Day is cook. Personally, I really wanted to cook – I just wanted to be left alone by everyone in my family when I did it. I also wanted to serve the meal to my family and not hear one complaint about it. Both of those wishes were granted, and it was amazing! My husband is really not a bell pepper fan, but I took advantage of the holiday and made these Chorizo Stuffed Peppers mostly just for myself. Even though he doesn’t care for the peppers, he actually really enjoyed these, or maybe he just liked the queso he drenched them in?!
I really love cooking and baking and I take pride in making things from scratch. It really makes me feel good to know exactly what is going into the food that I am making for my family (even if it is something loaded with sugar). You want to know what I hate? Absolutely anything that happens before about 9am. I am the complete opposite of a morning person, but for some reason my family keeps on waking up at a normal time and expecting breakfast. Because I have this profound hatred for the morning, I am always looking for ways to simplify my breakfast recipes. Enter these sausage and cheese cornbread muffins. I made these just a little easier by using a box of corn muffin mix, and I am so thankful for that when I am making a half-asleep Sunday morning breakfast.
