Sausage & Egg Megmuffins

In our family we enjoy breakfast for dinner quite often (usually about once per week). Our old standbys are breakfast burritos, pancakes, or breakfast sandwiches. So here's what our sausage, egg mcmuffins look like Meagan style (hence the name Sausage & Egg Megmuffins, haha).


We cook up a sausage patty; my famous most delicious, secret recipe scrambled egg patty (really not that secret - just add a little milk and cheese); slice a thick piece of Tilamook cheddar cheese; and pile it all on a toasted, buttered, sourdough English muffin. That's what I call a good breakfast sandwich. You could also add sliced bell peppers and avocado to spice/health it up.

I usually pair these delicious sandwiches with a big bowl of cut up fruit. This is yet another quick and easy meal at our home. Hope you enjoy some breakfast for dinner soon.

Open Faced Hummus Pita Sandwiches

I am always looking for super simple, healthy meals. A few years ago one of my friends gave me this idea while we were camping. The funny thing was that I forgot all about it until we planned a camping trip a few weeks back. These are so flavorful and delicious. And the possibilities are endless with toppings and flavors.

Open Faced Hummus Pita Sandwiches

Whole Wheat Pita Bread (you can also use naan or any other flat bread)
Your Favorite Hummus (I use Trader Joe's Original)
Sliced Red Bell Peppers
Basil Leaves

Spread the hummus on your bread, top with bell peppers and broken pieces of basil leaves. You could really use any toppings you think would go well with hummus. Carrots, celery, broccoli, tomatoes, cucumbers, etc.

Give it a try! You won't be disappointed!

Pizza Sandwiches

Growing up my mom used to make these delicious pizza sandwiches! They are super easy and absolutely delicious!

Take two slices of bread and spread pizza or spaghetti sauce on one side of each slice. Layer mozzarella cheese and your favorite pizza toppings (I like plain pepperoni because we always have it on hand). Then put the two sides together, and spread butter on the outsides of the sandwiches. Grill in a sandwich maker, or on a griddle like a grilled cheese sandwich.


Serve with sliced fruit and veggies and dip! Enjoy!!!

Cravings

For those of you who are pregnant, or have ever been pregnant, you will probably understand the feeling of CRAVING something specific. With this pregnancy I have found that my constant CRAVING is green apples. I cannot get enough of them. They are an everyday thing as of late! While I was looking at delicious food blogs I came across this idea from Picky Palate.


She used different ingredients for her sandwich, but I just used what I had and it was incredible. Slice a quarter of an apple (green or red, whichever is your favorite) as thin as you possibly can. Grate your favorite kind of cheese (I used Tilamook Colby Jack flavor). Butter the outsides of two slices of bread (I used a multigrain and it was delicious). Place one slice, butter side down in your skillet. Layer with grated cheese, sliced apples, then another light layer of grated cheese. Add second piece of bread with butter side up and brown on each side of the sandwich. Cut in half and serve with Honey Dijon Mustard and the remainder of your apple! Yum, yum, yum! I think I need one right now!

PS: If you're like me and were not aware that dijon mustard usually has alcohol in it then I would like to warn you they do. If you are okay with this then no problem, but due to my religious beliefs I do not consume any alcohol. Therefore, I searched and found one brand/type of dijon mustard that does not contain alcohol. It is French's Honey Dijon Mustard. Most store bought salad dressings also have alcohol in them so make sure to check if you do not wish to eat foods with alcohol in them.
