Thank You Martha...

Today's family breakfast is brought to you by good ole Martha... Martha Stewart that is. As we all know when it comes to the queen of homemaking it doesn't get much better than Martha. These were easy to make and super yummy. I called them "Eggs in a Basket". Not only is this recipe fat man approved but kid approved as well. Austin said it was all his favorite things and ate a whole "basket" with chocolate milk in his new shark cup. Afterwwards Mark and I discussed some variations you could try with this recipe. For instance you could crumble sausage instead of bacon, or scramble your eggs and add things like sauteed mushrooms, peppers and onions to give it an omelet taste. The choices are endless... adding salsa, using different breads, and even making different sizes. They didn't take any longer to make then a traditional breakfast of toast and eggs and it was less mess. I used one pan for partiallly cooking the bacon, my muffin tin and a glass to roll out my bread and cut the circles. Not even enough dishes to fill the dishwasher! So now that I've cooked them it's your turn... let me know how it goes.

Welcome...


Well this blog is the brain child of both myself and my happy fat husband. I've blogged in the past but always lacked focus. But anyone that truly knows me will tell you I love to cook and I'm always on the hunt for new recipes that are easy, healthy, and yummy! People are always asking me for recipes of tried and true foods they can make for their family. In a sense I've become a test kitchen of sorts and my loving husband is a devoted taste tester. When I first mentioned the idea of this blog the title was the first thing that came out of Mark's mouth. Everyone always teases him about my cooking and his eating. I guess he figures that if my cooking can keep him fat and happy then it's worth sharing with others. I hope this works, I hope you enjoy and I hope that you can find a few recipes that your family loves. I can promise you that any and all recipes I share will be taste test approved.
