The holidays are usually filled with loads of activity, especially in the kitchen. Cooking and preparing the holiday meal is at the top of the list. Here are four breakfast options to make your Thanksgiving morning a little easier. :)
①
Easy Breakfast Pie
This is the perfect breakfast meal to prepare, when you're short on time, and need to feed the whole family. It's quick and delicious!
The entire family loved this pie. I had leftovers from breakfast and the kids finished it off for dinner. This recipe is definitely a keeper.
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cup of all purpose baking mix
- 2/3 cup of lowfat milk
- 6 eggs, whisked
- 6 slices of precooked bacon, sliced into small pieces
- 1 cup of shredded blend of cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/2 cup of low-fat milk
- 1/2 tsp of salt, optional
Directions
Preheat oven to 375° degrees.
Lightly grease a 9-inch tart or pie pan and set aside.
Prepare the pie/biscuit crust by first mixing the flour and 2/3 cup of milk together. Knead the dough 10 times. (I followed the package directions). Roll out the dough onto floured wax paper to the approximate width of the tart pan. The dough should be about 1/4 inch thick. Transfer the dough to the tart pan and then press the dough down so that it fits the entire length of the pan. Set aside.
Combine the remaining ingredients together in a bowl and mix until well blended. Add the mixture to the prepared tart pan.
Cook for 25 - 30 minutes or until the casserole is set. (This can be tested by touching the casserole to make certain that it springs back instead of sinking in.) Cool for 5 minutes and serve. Makes 6 servings. Enjoy!
Note: As the pie gets closer to being done, keep an eye on it to avoid overcooking it.

Breakfast Enchiladas
Breakfast enchiladas anyone? This is an easy recipe that can be made ahead of time and set aside to cook later. It's very simple and quick to make. Try these for breakfast!
Ingredients
4 small flour tortillas (you can also substitute wheat or gluten-free tortillas)
6 eggs
1 Tbsp chopped onion
1 Tbsp chopped red bell pepper
1/4 tsp Italian seasoning
1 cup of shredded blend of cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese
Directions
Preheat oven to 375° degrees.
Lightly spray a 8"x 8" pan with cooking oil spray and set aside.
Heat a medium size skillet to cook the eggs in. In a bowl, mix together the eggs, chopped onion, chopped red bell pepper, and the Italian seasoning. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook on medium/high heat until well cooked or scrambled to your taste. Remove the eggs from the pan.
Place the tortillas in the lightly greased pan (fold them in half and set them side by side, leaving space open to fill the tortillas with the egg mixture). Fill each tortilla with the cooked egg mixture and secure each shell so that the mixture will not fall out.
Once each tortilla is filled, sprinkle the shredded cheese on each tortilla wrap, and place the tortillas in the oven and cook for 6 minutes, or until the cheese has fully melted.
Enjoy with a bowl of fruit or even a slice of turkey bacon!
Makes 2-4 servings.
