I like to keep my avocado toast simple… Lightly toasted bread of your choice, 1/4 ripe avocado per slice of bread. For a little extra flavor, sprinkle Costco’s Organic No-Salt Seasoning. Couldn’t resist a bite before taking photo… I’ll see you at the table!

Biscuits and Gravy Breakfast Casserole
This is an easy to make breakfast casserole. These days, I’m all about easy, tasty, and healthy. I wouldn’t put this dish in the healthy category though! It was a hit for teens, preteen and parents alike.
Ingredients:
1 12-oz tube refrigerated biscuits
6 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1 lb cooked sausage – I used maple and the touch of sweetness was really yummy
1 cup shredded cheese
For the gravy:
4 Tbsp. butter
4 Tbsp. flour
salt & pepper to taste
2 cups milk
Directions:
- Cook sausage in pan. Instead of links, I used tube of Jimmy Dean so was crumbly and easy to spread in dish.
- Cut each biscuit into 8 pieces. Set aside.
- In a bowl, mix the eggs, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper. Set aside.
- In a saucepan, melt the butter. Stir in flour, salt, and pepper, and slowly add the 2 cups of milk. Simmer, stirring, until it’s thickened. This can burn easily so keep stirring. Should only take 2-3 minutes.
- In a greased (I sprayed a light layer of Pan) 9×13 glass baking dish, layer the biscuits, sausage, cheese, egg mixture, and gravy.
- Bake at 350°F/180°C for 35-45 min, until the eggs on the bottom are cooked.
- Allow to cool 5 minutes, if you can wait that long!
Serve with Frank’s Red Hot sauce for an awesome vinegar-y kick. Enjoy!

Recipe: Smoothie 6
Sometimes a fruit is about to spoil, so that’s a great time to use it all up in a green smoothie. I had half a container of blueberries that were on the verge of going moldy, so I used them all in today’s smoothie. I normally use 3 pieces of fruit, but the berries will count for two. Use the @Blendtec to mix until smooth with spinach, frozen banana, cranberry juice, water and ice. Bring on the morning!
Making granola healthier
I love granola and am always looking for ways to make it healthier.
For a quick and easy way to add more omega to your granola, sprinkle on one teaspoon chia and one tablespoon raw sunflower seeds. Good for your brain and you’ll love the extra texture too!
Good morning to you and yours!
