A slice of breakfast casserole

Breakfast Casserole

1 can of crescent rolls

1 lb sausage (a basic sausage roll, I love Jimmy Dean's Maple)

2 cups shredded cheese (really any kind you want)

6 large eggs

Parsley

Salt

Pepper

Preheat your oven to 400F. Fry your roll of sausage in a pan, while doing so, make sure you shred it into crumbles. Place it off to side (drained of grease). Unroll your crescent rolls into a baking dish and making sure it is tight to make one long piece of flat dough. Sprinkle your crumbled sausage on top. Then throw your package of cheese all over the top. Beat 6 eggs with parsley, salt, and pepper to taste. Pour the mixture on the top. Place in the oven on 400F. You want it in there for about 30 minutes and to insure that your eggs and dough are completely cooked.

Slice and enjoy!

Pizza Casserole

Okay, so forgive the picture. I'll be honest, I am not here to impress you with fancy pictures of food. However, I am here to share amazing recipes with you that will make your mouth water and your belly just wanting more. I would like to how introduce you to Pizza Casserole.

Quite a few years ago, I was dating a guy named Josh. He loved to cook just as much as I did. We would always plan out our meals and be ready to cook when I would go to his apartment or when he would come to mine. Okay, well, we didn't always plan them out, but we did cook quite a few times together. Anyway, one night we didn't know what we wanted to make, but we knew we had to go to the store to get something. He was hungry, my son (who was then probably about 2 1/2 years old) was hungry, and well... so was I. So, we just had to make dinner. All of a sudden, he had this wonderful idea to make something called Pizza Casserole. I was quite puzzled and I wanted to know more. Of course, I was also a little put off at the idea... Pizza as a casserole? Really? What on earth are you thinking?! However, I was wrong and it was amazing! I posted the recipe to my Facebook about a week and a half ago... One of my friends tried it. Her family loved it. Of course, I was happy! So, no more waiting... here is the recipe and it's very simple! I hope you enjoy!

Pizza Casserole
1 package garden rotini (the multicolored ones)
4 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese (in other words 2 packages)
1 jar of pasta sauce (I use tomato & basil)
1 package of pepperoni

Preheat oven to 375F. Boil a pot of water and cook your rotini noodles. Once they are finished drain them. Place a small layer of noodles in a baking dish, then top it with a bit of sauce. Then place a layer of pepperoni of the sauce covered noodles. Top with cheese. Repeat process until your noodles, sauce, pepperoni, and cheese are gone. Of course, sneak a few pepperoni slices to munch on!

Place baking dish in oven (I leave it uncovered) on 375F for about 25 - 30 minutes. Once done, place in dishes and serve.

It's like spaghetti, but with the element of pizza! Enjoy!
