Overnight Cheesy Breakfast Casserole

http://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/2014/05/overnight-cheesy-breakfast-casserole-recipe.html


This amazingly simple casserole recipe starts with a scrumptious layer of left over buttery biscuits, it's filled with my favorite breakfast components and ends with a generous amount of ooey gooey cheese.  It is a complete breakfast.  Just add coffee or orange juice.

Breakfast casseroles have been a long time favorite in our house.  I love to make it the night before and just pop it in the oven that morning.  These come in extra handy on special occasion days; like Easter, Christmas, Mothers/Fathers Day.  Pretty much every morning that I don't want to spend a lot of time in the morning preparing food, a breakfast casserole comes in handy.

Outrageously Peanutty Snickers Brownies


Snickers are packed in every bite of this magnificent dessert.  This amazing recipe starts with a chocolate brownie packed with Snickers bites.  Then it's loaded with peanuts and ooey gooey caramel sauce.  It is perfectly topped with a fluffy nougat frosting, candy bites and then drizzled with milk chocolate ganache.   This is truly a Snickers lover's dream come true!

Snickers are one of my favorite candy bars!  I love all the peanuts, the caramel and the chocolate!  The nougat is just a bonus if you ask me.  It is so much fun using your favorite candies as inspiration to create the most spectacular desserts.

Chef John’s On Vacation!

Please Note: Photo is for metaphorical purposes only.
Chef John is not vacationing in the tropics.
There are many things I enjoy about my partnership with Allrecipes – amazing tech support, access to state-of-the-art equipment (I don’t know how to use it, but still), and being able to work with talented, like-minded foodies; but above and beyond that, I love that they actually make me take vacations.

At first, they had to force me to take them, since I was convinced that if I went a week without posting a video, the Internet would implode. After realizing that wasn’t the case, my ego and I relaxed, and now we actually look forward to these mandatory breaks.

Anyway, I’ll be off all this week, and while comments will be published, I’ll not be monitoring the blog, so when it comes to questions and comments, you’ll be at the mercy of fellow foodwishers. Good luck with that. Thanks, and see you next week!

Overnight French Toast Casserole Cups

http://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/2014/05/overnight-french-toast-casserole-cups-recipe.html


Overnight french toast casserole is the perfect make-ahead breakfast recipe.  Bursting with cinnamon, this rich custard filling envelops the bread and creates the perfect french toast. It is the best parts of bread pudding and french toast all in one fabulous serving. 

My husband and daughter absolutely love french toast.   They would be happy to eat it everyday.  But most mornings I prefer my coffee and a cheesy omelet (if anything at all) and I am not about to make 2 breakfasts.  Actually I am a part of the "morning zombie" movement, so if I cook at all it is almost a miracle.
