The reason why....

A few years ago I made the New Year's resolution to try a new recipe each week to encourage more creativity in my cooking. At the time I was newly married and wanted to change what I cooked. What I learned is that I love to cook and I especially love to try new things....even if they don't turn out or I don't like the taste. At least I accomplished something...

Brunch...any time!

I had made this brunch bake for our trip to the Outer Banks that never happened. :(  I had it in the freezer for over a month and was still very good thawed out and baked.

From Tasteofhome.com:

Breakfast Bake

4 cups seasoned croutons
2 C shredded cheddar
1 onion, chopped
1/4 C sweet red pepper, chopped
1/4 C green pepper, chopped
4oz jar sliced mushrooms, drained
8 eggs
4 C milk
1 t salt
1 t ground mustard
1/8 t pepper
8 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled

1. Sprinkle croutons, cheese, onion, peppers and mushroom into a greased 13x9 baking dish. 
2. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, mustard and pepper.  Pour slowly over vegetables.
3. Sprinkle bacon over.
4. Cover and freeze up to 3 months.
5. Thaw for 48 hours in refrigerator.  Put on counter for 30 minutes before baking.
6. Bake at 350 for 50-60 minutes.

This comes in real handy for weekend company too!
