Family Favorite Savory Breakfast Ideas
I have a soft spot in my heart for a good, sweet start, but my stomach craves all things savory. Eggs are a quick way to get a filling breakfast in minutes and are undeniably the easiest to get creative with!
- Copycat IHOP Southwest Scramble– An easy way to sneak in some veggies before you start the day.
- Homemade Biscuits and Gravy– Ok, technically 2 recipes. But worth making together. The biscuits are layers of butter goodness and the gravy is only 3 ingredients! Bold flavor with minimal effort.
- Fried Egg Sandwich– A step above your regular sandwich, this one is piled high with veggies! Kid and adult approved.
- Churro Waffle Recipe– Crisp soft waffles brushed with butter and sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar, what could be better?
- Mixed Berry Smoothie– This is the king of smoothies. Quick, easy, and can be prepped in advance for the freezer. This is the one I load with spinach- because you cannot taste it at all!
