Some days you really just don’t feel like cooking the big fancy “dinner”. Ya know the one that is balanced with protein, carbs, and the correct serving size of green veggies. Not that anything is wrong with popping in a frozen pizza or heating up a microwave meal either. There is absolutely no judgment here.
Tonight, I was trying to find something to cook, and pasta seemed to be the only thing in the cabinet since groceries are coming tomorrow. That just didn’t sound appealing. So, instead, I found a few things to throw together for a skillet. My favorite breakfast minus the eggs. Yep, you read that right. I am not an egg person. Boyfriend says it’s a flaw, but we all can’t be perfect. Lol
It didn’t take me more than 10 minutes to chop and throw it all together. I used 2 potatoes, half a red pepper, and half an onion for the skillet. I have a package of frozen breakfast sausage, so I grabbed a couple of those and threw them in too. I sprinkled them with a bit of garlic, taco seasoning, and some other spices and browned everything up a bit. I just realized I forgot to add some Mexican blend cheese, but it’s OK. Usually, I would have some avocado, but again, I’m waiting on those dang groceries, 😆
Finished up with some buttered toast and a glass of milk. Let me tell you, something so simple just hit the spot. It was a long day, and a quick meal was just what I needed to let the day simmer. And only one dish to wash and put away for an added bonus.
Do you ever get a craving for breakfast instead of the time appropriate meal? My boyfriend craves steak and eggs sometimes. For my sister, it’s pancakes or waffles. Mom just gets out a bowl of cereal sometimes. Share your go-to breakfast for dinner. Or your quick fix meal for a busy or long day. Would love to get more ideas 🙂
