Pesto Bread

We were up at Big Bear, the weekend before it became the focus of a manhunt for a cop killer which I’m sure you have heard about.

One of the friends up there one night cooked meatball soup and pesto bread. It was wonderful. She made little meatballs and dropped them in a hug pot filled with a tomato broth, with added chicken broth with a package of frozen Italian Mixed veggies. She then whipped up this amazing pesto bread. Very simple, but so good, I could have eaten 3 or 4 slices. She just took ordinary white bread and spread a good brand of pesto over each slice. Then just grated fresh parmesan cheese over this and broiled it until the cheese was melted and slightly browned. Wow, we all were just in heaven, the bread was so simple, but oh so delicious…Try it, you won’t be disappointed.

Breakfast Bread

We are down to 13 days before turkey day and if you are like me, (if you are, you poor thing), you are probably looking through magazines for new recipes to welcome family around the table. But not just any recipes, you want ones that are easy, quick but taste like Paula Deen, herself, were in your kitchen. This my dear ladies and gentlemen, is one of those recipes. It is like a breakfast bread pudding, without the cream sauce. I guess if you wanted you could make a gravy for those who think that any breakfast should include gravy. But make a batch this weekend to see how great it is.

2 cups shredded cheese

1 lb sausage, cooked and drained

8 eggs, beaten (we are sorry we always have to beat you, but it gets any hostility out before our hubby gets home)

3 tables chopped green chiles

1/2 cup chopped onion (optional, if you prefer, sprinkle in 1 teas of onion powder)

1 large can Grand biscuits, quartered

Mix all ingredients together. Spray a bundt pan with Pam (or Harriet, or Jane).  Pour mixture into pan. Bake in 350 preheated oven for 35-40 min….I told you it was easy…now get to the store and buy your sausage and biscuits and make it this weekend.
