A versatile loaded overnight breakfast casserole dish that can be easy to prep, (pre-cooked meats, pre-shredded cheese) and be made more wholesome (fat-free dairy, turkey breakfast meats). Personally, I saute my ham and sausage in bacon grease!

Cardamom French Toast Casserole
I love cardamom, and I thought I'd play with recipes featuring it. I came up with this one after having made cardamom braids, a Norwegian sweet bread. Cardamom braids are the best for this, but French bread or Italian bread will work, too.
Frozen Vegetable Stir-Fry
This stir fry with frozen veggies makes a very quick and tasty vegetable side dish that's ready to serve in 10 minutes. Soy sauce and peanut butter add a nice Thai-style flavor.
Microwave Spaghetti Squash
I microwave spaghetti squash for a much easier and quicker way to cook it than roasting it in the oven. Top the tender squash with your favorite ingredients, or kept simple with just a pat of butter and some salt. For longer strands, cut the squash crosswise instead of lengthwise.
