Time for August Secret Recipe Club reveal!
This month I received a jackpot of recipes from 2 Cookin' Mamas. The authors of the blog are Linda and Christina, a mother daughter team- they even have co-authored a cookbook! They specialize in my favorite type of meals- quick and healthy. Their blog is full of delicious recipes and I had a terrible time picking a recipe because there was so much yumminess to choose from like: Icebox Key Lime Pie Bites, Wine Slushies, Mandarin Chicken Salad, and Carrot Cake Smoothie. I ultimately decided to make Italian Breakfast Casserole. I love preparing baked egg casseroles on the weekend and this one is a little outside the box of our normal eggs and bacon combination. The recipe calls for smoked ham, salami and zesty pepperoni. Add in mozzarella and provolone with a few roasted red peppers and you have a delicious alternative to your everyday breakfast casserole. The original recipe called for roasted red pepper halves and when I purchased mine I didn't realize that I had grabbed chopped roasted red peppers- oops.
The flavors of this casserole are delicious. The different meats with the cheesy eggs and potatoes makes a delicious and filling breakfast. My family loved this- even my non-egg lover, Kellen!
Thank you for a new delicious recipe Linda and Christina!
Tonight my family and I are tuned into the Olympics! We love watching swimming and really get into the competition and were happy to see gold for the United States!
