Our 1st ever TASTY TUESDAY!

I thought a Tasty Tuesday would be a good routine for me to get into!  I love to cook, although they don't always turn out, and am always looking for new recipes, techniques and toys!!!  (Hubby and I can not go to kitchen stores as we just love kitchen toys and it never fails that one of us is getting one for almost every holiday!) 

So... Today I am kicking off with an egg bake!  I had no idea how to make these until 2 years ago when I joined MOPS back east and it seemed like everyone was making them... And not wanting to miss out, I looked it up, tried one and loved it!

They are pretty easy!  Just think of a huge omelet you pop in the oven!

You add whatever you want or have on hand, as much as you want!

So here is mine for today, I am sharing it with the ladies from our church at our welcome back brunch!

I chopped up 1 large onion, 1 red pepper and 1 green pepper.  I then sauteed them (trying something new...) individually (well peppers together).  I also chopped up about 5 smaller potatoes, and cooked them up a little as well.  At this point I was wishing I had some mushrooms... Oh well next time...

All the while cooking up 1 tube of sausage.  (Bacon is yummy too, almost added that as well)

Then mix it all together in a 13x9 pan.  Whip up 18 eggs with milk (just like you would for scrambled eggs)... I tried with 12 it just didn't seem like enough! :)  This is where I am happy to have egg makers outside!


I just think all the colors are beautiful!



Then mix in cheese!!! Oh I love cheese so there probably is a little much in there, or at least there will be when I top the entire casserole with more cheese!!!  I used Colby Jack, but if you like Pepper Jack, that would be good, as would sharp cheddar, Swiss, a mix, whatever you have and prefer!

I also sprinkled on some salt, pepper and garlic powder and mixed it in...  The one thing I love about this recipe is how versatile it is.  Whatever you have on hand or whatever you prefer works!

Pop in your 350 preheated oven for about an hour... I try to give myself a little extra time at the end just in case it needs to cook for a little longer! 

Sorry there is now after picture for now (I will post it later).  I am trying to get this post out before the meeting and with 3 kids to get ready, I will just have to do it later! 

And I thought I would share pictures of my babies sleeping! :)  Well, Jacob is starting to get up, but the light was "keeping his eyes closed"...  Gotta love 'em!

I hope you all have a blessed Tasty Tuesday and please share tips you might have with your egg bakes, or a different recipe!!!
