Ham and Potatoes with Baked Eggs – $5 Dinner Challenge

Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 22:29:02 +0000

I fell wildly behind these last few days…and in the process my beautifully designed meal plan and food photographs just didn’t happened as I hoped they would! I did manage to make this delicious-ness late last week…using up some potatoes I found in the freezer that I’d bought during the 50% off store closing sale.

This week’s $5 Dinner Challenge recipe can be found over on One Dish Dinners -

Ham and Potatoes Saute with Baked Eggs

And yes, it’s Monday afternoon…still trying to figure out what to eat this week. If you need me, I’ll have my head in our deep freezer…still hoping to have cleared it out…by the end of the week! ACK!

Hope you enjoy this delicious & hearty breakfast, or brinner!

Christmas Tree Pancakes

Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom — Fri, 09 Dec 2011 13:00:00 +0000

Absolutely precious…love the tasty ornaments, the star doning the top and the “presents” around this pancake tree. I can tell you know that my children will be smitten over this when I serve them up on Christmas morning…or for a snack to tide them over to the big meal!

Idea comes from Midstate Mills! What fun!

Apple Cider Pancakes – Friday Night Bite

Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom — Fri, 04 Nov 2011 21:01:00 +0000

A few weeks ago, we had in informal family dinner with our cousins who had recently returned to the US from teaching in Latin America. Needless to say, we had lots to catch up on…comparing stories of life in a foreign country, discussing the different Spanish words, phrases and idioms for the different countries we’d lived in.

Anywho…my mom-in-law brought over some apple cider and we got so caught up in all the laughter and conversation that I forgot all about the cider that was in the fridge!

After all were gone, we were cleaning up and discovered the unopened cider…and I immediately started thinking…what else can I do with this, besides drink it?! An experiment was in order…I wonder what would happen if I used a little cider in place of some milk in a batch of pancakes…and maybe toss in a chopped apples for kicks and giggles.

A wonder-fall brinner!

Pumpkin Scones {Sweet Pea’s Kitchen}

Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 14:10:00 +0000

You know what I love about scones.

They work anytime of the day. They work for breakfast. For morning snack or with brunch. They could work with a simple vegetarian lunch with fruit and veggie crudites. They totally work as an afternoon snack, and definitely as a dessert.

Versatile little critters, aren’t they?!
