Three Quick and Easy Family Breakfast Recipes

Even though I know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, I'll admit that it's also one

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal live. John 3:16 (NIV)

of the hardest to go to a lot of trouble for during the busy weekday. We've never been big breakfast eaters at my house, in fact, cold cereal or toaster waffles are the usual fare on any given Monday through Friday morning around here. But, on the weekends we often like to whip up a big breakfast for the whole family and then actually sit down at the same table and eat it together. Wow, that's a feat in itself anymore!

The same old tired bacon and eggs do get boring after awhile however, so I've found some yummy breakfast recipes that meet my 'quick and easy' criteria. Since I have a picky preschooler who loves eggs but is on a 'no pancake' kick lately, I wanted a couple of really good recipes that will satisfy grown-up as well as kid tastes.

Quick and Easy Maple Toast and Eggs

12 bacon strips, diced
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup butter
12 slices white bread (firmer texture is better)
Salt and pepper to taste

Cook bacon in skillet until crisp and then drain on paper towels. In a small saucepan, heat syrup and butter until the butter melts. Trim crusts from bread and flatten slices with a rolling pin. Brush one side with syrup mixture and press each slice into an ungreased muffin cup with syrup side down. Divide bacon among muffin cups. Break one egg into each cup and then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover with foil and bake on 400F for 20 minutes. Serves 12.

Quick and Easy Farmers Breakfast

6 bacon strips, diced
2 tbsp diced onion
3 medium potatoes, cooked and cubed
6 eggs, beaten
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Cook bacon in skillet until crisp and drain on paper towels. In the bacon drippings, sauté onion and potatoes until potatoes are browned. Pour eggs into skillet and cook until eggs are set and cooked to desired doneness. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with cheese and bacon; let stand for 2 minutes or until cheese melts. Serves 4.

Quick and Easy Egg and Biscuit Breakfast

2 tbsp butter
8 eggs, beaten
1 - 5 oz can evaporated milk
1 - 8 oz package American cheese, cubed
1 tbsp prepared mustard
1 cup cubed cooked ham
1 - 10 oz can refrigerator biscuits

Melt butter in skillet. Add eggs and cook until set. In a saucepan, combine milk, cheese and mustard and cook until cheese is melted. Remove from heat and fold in ham and eggs. Pour into a greased 8 inch greased baking dish. Separate biscuits and place on top. Bake at 375F for 20 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown. Serves 4.
