Overnight Slow Cooker Baked Oatmeal
I really wasn't sure if this was going to work. I've been wanting to try it for some time. I read on my friend Stephanie's blog that she made it and it worked. I read her advice and tips and decided to go for the 'overnight' concept. Because I wanted it nice and warm in the morning for my boys! It worked. Totally worked. Didn't burn on the edges. Was completely cooked … [Read more...]

Salsa Verde Breakfast Tacos
Okay y'all...first of all...these breakfast tacos are AMAZING. My husband, who has become quite the "taste tester" over the years, went on and on and on and on about these being the best breakfast tacos. BUT...this meal wasn't without incident.

For me it was a few weeks ago when I was in Vegas. I hopped into an elevator, headed down for a seminar the day before the actual Bake-Off occurred. I noticed that the 2 gals in the elevator were also with … [Read more...]
