Breakfast Sandwich Mayhem...
Hey all.. so I dont normally post on the weekend but decided to do a little cooking project that I thought I would share..
Now if your spouse is anything like mine.. he gets up and gets his cup of coffee and off he goes.. NO breakfast no snacks nothing.. Off he goes on an empty stomach..
Drives me nuts..
Alot of my weight loss success has been from eating my meals through out the day.. not skipping meals and snacks all day only to come home to dinner then snack all night..
Just n ot healthy.. where is your fuel for the day..
If this is not your spouse maybe this is you.. everything is hurry up and go now adays.. and while Ive been blessed to be able to stay home with my kids and take the time to eat.. not everyone has that luxery...
SO here is my solution.. A friend of mine has done this.. thought Id give it a shot...
and so began my saturday morning of
BREAKFAST SANDWICH MAYHEM...
Here are the finished, baked scrambled eggs..

BREAKFAST SANDWICH MAYHEM...
First I whipped up a batch of scrambled eggs..not a ton of milk.. we want fluffy eggs not weighed down.. and all the extra milk and butter we use when making it in a pan is not needed. Just take a little non stick cooking spray to the bottom.. Not a ton.. just a quick spritz... This was the first time I baked scrambled eggs.. so tested it out at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes.. they fluffed up nicely..
Here are the finished, baked scrambled eggs..
I generally keep a roll of ground sausage in the fridge.. for breakfast or for pizza topping.. so I just made 8 patties out of the sausage roll and cooked them up.. be sure to lay them out on paper towel when done.. SO GREASY..
Next I had hit a sale on the Grands Biscuits.. 5 cans for 4$ which is not bad.. plus I had a 1$ off coupon.. so that helped..
Anyways.. I baked these babies up.. I would like to try next time making my own biscuits instead of store bought..
Finished product.
Then I pulled out american cheese.. i think some other cheese would be yummier.. but Its for hubby and hes an american cheese guy..
Now I know above I said we want nice fluffy eggs.. well its nice to have fluffy cuz you not it wont be a heavy thing in your stomach.. however you need to smoosh the sanwich together a bit.. the eggs were SOOOO fluffy that there was about an inch from where the egg sat and top part of the roll..lol...
I then took my cheap store bran freezer sandwich size bags and store them all in there.. there is one missing because I had to taste test and I had no had breakfast yet.. not a huge fan or breakfast sandwiches.. but this was pretty yummy..
then I made some freezer space.. now all hubby has to do while his coffee brews in the morning is to take one out.. wrap it in paper towel and microwave it to heat it up.. Healthier version On a bfast sandwich from say McDonalds or Dunkin DOnuts..
Cant wait for him to try one.. he has enough for each day of the week..
The next attempt will be with fresh biscuits instead of canned.. and Id like to try it with Bacon.. I prefer bacon over sausage.. also might make some regular eggs baked.. not scrambled.. Hugs prefers that over scrambled..
Hope it was a nice lil tip for some of you.. sorry its not about cleaning.. but healthy, or in this case Healthier than normal eating is what I have been striving for since August...
Much Love and Blessings..
