Easy Ham and Cheese Breakfast Casserole
I love making casseroles like this one for breakfast! You can pretty much use any kind of bread - I like to use odds and ends like leftover buns or rolls, etc. You can mix and match the meat and cheese too, but this is a great basic country ham and Cheddar cheese version. I used leftover brioche buns for the bread.
Best Instant Pot Scalloped Potatoes
These Instant Pot scalloped potatoes are the ultimate side dish. They're easy to make and ready in about 30 minutes.
Loaded Potato Chip Nachos
These loaded potato chip nachos are like a loaded potato skin meets a nacho. The chips get extra crispy, and the cheese holds everything together. The warm, savory flavor from ranch seasoning and bacon contrasts nicely with the cool, tangy sour cream dip.
