Spinach Cheddar Muffins

A Savory Breakfast Muffin I received a call from my good friend, Shannon, yesterday. She was very excited about this savory muffin she had at The Heirloom Bakery in South Pasadena for breakfast.

Bell Pepper Egg-in-a-hole

McBreakfast Okay, I’m going to come clean. I love Egg McMuffins. To me, it’s the perfect breakfast, everything contained in the middle of an English muffin – protein and carbs. I also make them at home and can never quite get the egg in the shape of the muffin (I like my eggs scrambled). So […]

Waning Waffles

There is a very serious Eggo Waffle shortage people! My daughter will starve!  The Eggo factory in Atlanta had a flood due to heavy rain.  The Atlanta facility was closed during much of September and October to sanitize the plant after inspectors found Listeria monocytogenes — bacteria that can cause serious infection — in a sample […]
