Easter Breakfast Idea: Breakfast Bagel Bake ~Life Just Happens
This is a great breakfast casserole for the holidays or a brunch. You make it the night before and let it sit overnight in the refrigerator. Just throw the dish in the oven the next morning. Serve with some fruit and some muffins or danish, mimosas and some coffee. In no time you have brunch. […]…
Easter Appetizer: Smoky Tomato & Candied Bacon Pickled Deviled Eggs ~Harvest and Honey

Scotch Eggs ~ChilliJonCarneCooks

Oaxacan Breakfast Casserole
This is a wonderful, slightly spicy morning casserole or bake filled with traditional Oaxacan ingredients and flavors. I found it very easy to put together– reminiscent of preparing lasagna, but without the noodle boil, or complicated pasta sauce prep.
