Scrambled eggs make an excellent final minute, clean-up-the-kitchen weekend breakfast or meal. When I went through my fridge and pantry and jotted down what could be used this morning, I realized I had a half-jar of taco sauce, a tiny container of green chiles diced, and a massive block of pepper jack cheese. I immediately knew I needed a cheese-laden skillet filled with Ultimate Southwest Scrambled Eggs for lunch. It's similar to nachos with a lot of cheese, however, with all eggs and no nachos. LOL. As a fervent egg lover, I'm not sad about it. HOW TO SERVE SOUTHWEST SCRAMBLED EGGS I like them...

I'd love to try many pumpkin recipes, but I do not have enough energy or stomach space to make them all. However, this particular recipe has been on my list since last year, so Pumpkin Cream Cheese Spread has been given top priority. The recipe can be made in minutes and is excellent to spread on anything, including homemade cinnamon bagels with raisins, graham crackers, and even apple slices. It's tangy, sweet, and filled with autumnal spice! Also, adding it to the cream cheese recipe is similar to adding a vitamin- and fiber-rich pill to something usually delicious. This sounds like something that is a win-win....

I love sweet potatoes, so it was appropriate for me to create Baked Sweet Potato Oatmeal. :) Sweet potatoes are relatively inexpensive because they are durable on the shelf, they're full of nutrients, and they can be used in savory and sweet dishes. What's not to love? It's the reason they're my favorite ingredients. I created this baked oatmeal following the classic Thanksgiving dessert sweet potato casserole; however, I utilized less sugar and attempted to develop it as breakfast-friendly as possible. Sweet potatoes have natural sweetness, and I reduced the added sugar. THIS IS A MARSHMALLOW FREE ZONE For this oatmeal to be similar to...

You know I love my bowl-meal meals, right? They have everything you're looking for in a bowl and more flavor, texture, and color than one could scratch a stick at. The more I cook bowl-based meals, the more they are reminiscent of Bibimbap, the most famous of bowl meals. If you're still not aware of the amazingness of Bibimbap, learn all the information. Although my Bibimbap isn't authentic, I could utilize the available ingredients to create something close enough to satisfy the craving. WHAT IS BIBIMBAP? If you've had no idea about Bibimbap, it's an authentic Korean dish of rice and vegetables seasoned with...

In the local coffee shop where my boyfriend frequents, there's a large container of homemade biscotti next to the cash counter. I am drawn to the vast apricot-flavored biscotti whenever I'm there with him. I'm always in awe, but I turn each time since I know that I could whip up the whole batch at home with the cost of one or two. I finally had the chance to create an entire collection of Almond Apricot Biscotti just a few weeks ago and was right. 28 delicious homemade biscotti for just over $3! It's probably one-tenth of what I would pay at a coffee shop. WIN STASH...

I'm indeed an English Muffin lover. They're a complete breakfast delight to me, exceptionally when turned into breakfast eggs. I remember making my first batch of muffins eight to nine years ago. And from what I can recall, they came out quite good. Now having the time and space to get back into baking, Homemade English Muffins are at the top of my list. RECIPE INSPIRATION AND ADJUSTMENTS After looking through a collection of 20plus recipes, I opted to base my recipe on this recipe found on allrecipes.com. After reading several reviews, I made some changes. There are two critical elements to making an English...

This post isn't an actual recipe but rather an idea for a meal or an example of how I create meals at the moment using what's in the fridge. I've written about my breakfast bowls with savory ingredients before, but recently, I discovered a new element that can transform your bowl into Hummus. Hummus providesHummusamy a sweet, tangy component to the bowl, which elevates it to the next level. It's also because I made it. Four varieties of Hummus! The other Hummus'm almost at Hummus Breakfast Bowl heaven this week. START HERE, THEN MAKE IT YOUR OWN! If you're a breakfast with a flavor...

My boyfriend brought me a jar of these super-soft and tiny scones that you can only find in the supermarket the other day (yeah, he's indeed an enabler). While eating one, I noticed how much they tasted to my favorite five-ingredient freeze biscuits. They're light, soft, and delicious and melt into your mouth. I could tell immediately I needed to attempt making those two-bite scones by myself. To make them sweeter than average biscuits, I added powdered sugar. This gave them that soft, melt-in-your-mouth taste. I used a hefty amount of fresh lemon zest to deliver the lemony flavor, which provides them...

You all know that I'm addicted to eggs. You might also know my insatiable love of Sriracha (I don't mind if it's been overdone, I enjoy it). !!). Therefore, it's only natural that I would make Sriracha Egg Salad. I briefly discussed Sriracha Egg Salad in my blog post on Sriracha Deviled eggs; however, I wanted to create an entire recipe for this delicious and easy recipe. The Sriracha deviled egg is somewhat "heavier" in flavor thanks to the garlic powder and smoked paprika; however, you'll be eating just one or two eggs (...probably). You'll likely eat some less than the eggs, so I wanted the dish to...

Two things that always stay in my fridge and freezer areare frozen eggs and spinach. I hadn't eaten the creamy spinach for a while, so when I decided to cook some one day, I threw some eggs on top and baked it all to make a delicious breakfast delight. Why would I not? Also, I had some feta, too and tossed it onto the top to add a little flavor. The feta transformed these Creamed Spinach Baked eggs into "this is pretty good" to " Yassssss girl." BAKING TIME MAY VARY The time to bake eggs can vary, so consider the recommended 15 minutes and...
