- Very Berry Coffee Cake
- Crock Pot Hash Brown Casserole
- Maple Breakfast Sausage
- Fruit Salad
I totally forgot that last night was my youngest son's school carnival. So, I made a last minute change and pulled out the handy dandy crock pot to make Hash Brown Casserole instead of pan fried hash browns. In this recipe, I substituted equal amounts of Cheddar and Pepper Jack for the Velveeta. (I'm sorry, but Velveeta is not cheese.) I heated the cream of mushroom soup with the sour cream, and then added both cheeses to that, stirring until smooth. You might want to add a little more salt; I added garlic salt. Then I dumped everything into the crock pot. It turned out like shredded scalloped potatoes – gooey, cheesy, yummy, and not low calorie. I topped mine with salsa. Yum!
The coffee cake recipe is fabulous. I've made this several times before and it's always a hit. And yes, we had it for breakfast this morning. The fruit salad is purple, because I mixed frozen berries into it...my oldest son likes color. If you use fresh berries, it won't be so purple. :-) The salad dressing is simply lemon yogurt mixed with cinnamon, a large dollop of sour cream, a tablespoon of sugar, and a handful of shredded sweet coconut. How's that for exact measurements? Best of all, everything was made ahead of time. It doesn't get any easier than that.
