Ingredients:
2 Eggs
3-4 Slices of White Bread
1/4 cup of Milk
Cinnamon
Pam

Directions:
Crack you eggs into a large bowl. Add your milk and whisk until the milk and eggs are all mixed together. Place a slice of bread in the egg mixture and soak it for w few seconds on each side. On a warm skillet place your soaked slice of bread and sprinkle some cinnamon on top. Brown both sides and continue doing this to all slices of bread. These make great french toast for breakfast! This is 1 serving.

*Note: Personally, I like to do white bread with french toast because wheat seems to be too dense for me, but you can choose!

Christmas Potpourri

This makes your home smell wonderful for Christmas!

ingredients:

Orange Slices
Cloves
Cranberries
Cinnamon Sticks

directions:
You can use as many of these as you would like. I like to use 2 oranges (sliced). If you don't have the actual cloves or cinnamon sticks you can definitely use what you have in your spice cabinet. Cranberries are optional depending if you have them or not. Add water and simmer on low on your stove top. Make sure you don't simmer dry. If you have to keep adding water. 

Breakfast Burrito's

It is Friday and it is burrito day here on Great Tastes Tuesdays!

I have posted a breakfast burrito and a beef/turkey burrito!

Enjoy!

ingredients:
2 Flour Tortilla's
Cheese
Butter
4 Eggs
4 Tbsp. of Milk
Salt and Pepper to Taste
Ground Sausage (size of your fist)
Salsa

directions:
Place a slice of butter on your skillet. Turn your stove to medium low. Place one of your tortilla's on the skillet with cheese on top. Cook until your cheese is melted and the tortilla is light brown and crispy on the outside. Do this to all of your tortilla's and place them on a plate.

Crack all of your eggs and place them in a small bowl. Add your milk and whisk for twenty seconds. Scramble these in your skillet on low. Add salt and pepper to taste. Divide these and place in your tortilla's.

Brown your sausage, add salt and pepper to taste and add to your burrito's. Serve with salsa and you are done! Enjoy your breakfast!

*Note for your knowledge: You can do as many of these as you would like. Just remember these few things when you double and triple egg recipes. When you scramble eggs add 1 Tbsp. of milk for every egg. This makes them fluffier and delicious, but if you add any more your eggs are watery. The proteins in the egg can't hold all your milk and you get milky scrambled eggs. (1 Tbsp. of Milk per egg) 

Also, don't cook your eggs too high. On my stove it has numbers 1-9 and I always do my eggs on 3. Eggs cook fast and if you cook them too high they get brown quick and smell like sulfur.
