What does breakfast look like at your house? Our mornings are a little crazy. In the county we live in, they believe that the middle and high school kids need to sleep in a little more so the elementary kids get the earliest shift. (I think it works - they have awesome test scores!) That means my kids would have to catch the bus at 6:25am. But that's too early for us and it's easier for me to wake up later and drive them to school. Plus it gives me a little extra time with them where we aren't as distracted and we can just chat.
Before we head out the door it's important that my kids have a full breakfast. When you are out of the house that early - a filling breakfast is essential. I have a few recipes that I can get on the table quickly and keep them fuller longer.
Check out this egg recipe with pico de gallo!
One trick I use is to buy Jimmy Dean® Fully Cooked Pork Sausage Patties at Walmart. They also have Jimmy Dean® Fully Cooked Pork Sausage Links that are delicious! From the microwave to table it's about a minute. My kids love them and get excited when I serve them for breakfast. They are even packed into 2 stay-fresh packages.
This is also a great breakfast idea when you have family visiting over the holidays. It has many great memories from my childhood and I especially like to make it when my sisters come to visit. I remember staying at my grandma's house and waking up on Saturday mornings to this breakfast. Or it would be cooking on the stove while the turkey was in the oven.
I love that the eggs are quick and easy. They are not like your typical eggs with cheese. The cheese cooks with them to give them a different flavor. You can even add some toast and fruit if they are really hungry. This is a weekend breakfast that can be served any day of the week and especially during the holidays!
Cheese & Eggs With Sausage Breakfast
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup water
- 4 oz cheddar cheese, in cubes
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- Jimmy Dean® Fully Cooked Pork Sausage Patties
Instructions:
- Place the eggs into a medium size saucepan and scramble the eggs. Add the water, cheese, and some salt and pepper.
- Cook over medium heat and stir consistently. The mixture will slowly start to cook and you will know it is ready when it looks like scrambled eggs. It will take about 8-10 minutes.
- About 1 minute before the eggs are done, place the desired about of Jimmy Dean® Fully Cooked Pork Sausage Patties in the microwave.
The eggs will be have a broth with them that you can serve with the sausage if you like. It gives the eggs extra moisture and tastes good.
Head to Walmart and grab Jimmy Dean® Fully Cooked Pork Sausage Patties and make this for breakfast during the week! There's no need to wait for the weekend to enjoy a big breakfast when you have these sausage patties in your house that heat up so fast.
yes! Fast and easy and tasty to boot. That's how I prefer my meals.
These patties are so easy and quick..and they taste good, too!
We tried both the pork and the turkey versions of the Jimmy Dean patties and loved both. Your eggs look yummy!
My husband eats a version of this every morning, except minus the toast and add in some grits. It fills him up and last all day pretty much until dinner. It only takes me about 5mins to cook as well. I need quick meals in my wheel house because at every meal we eat differently. Those sausage patties are great to keep on hand but can get expensive. We buy the sausage logs and just cook those up, crumble them into the grits. It last the whole week.
What a hearty way to start the day! This breakfast sandwich sounds phenomenal.
I use these sausages for breakfast all the time! They are huge time savers, and they're far less messy than cooking them up from scratch.
We love a good sausage and scrambled egg breakfast in the mornings. I love how easy and convenient this makes it!
These sausage patties look great! I skip breakfast a lot, but my son loves eggs and sausage. I will have to grab some of these for him to try! They look yummy!
This looks so tasty! I love the flavors of cheese paired with sausage!
I'd be happy to make a breakfast like this for my family. Those sausages are so perfect!
Breakfast for us is very important everyday. My wife and I switch days making breakfast, so, on my next day, I may have to make this!
I wish I had time to make a great breakfast like that on a regular school morning. A breakfast like that is something I would save for a lazy weekend and my son would love it.
Simple and easy but very good and the kids will love it! Thanks for the awesome breakfast idea! It's perfect for busy mornings!
You are one lucky lady to be able to make breakfast like this often. My family adore me if I did. It looks so delicious!
I need to pick up some Jimmy Dean Fully Cooked Pork Sausage Patties. We are having a few friends over for brunch this weekend. I am always looking for new breakfast ideas.
This looks like a great breakfast! Eggs and sausage is the best to start your day!
Cheese eggs are the best eggs. My dad always made eggs with cheddar cheese, so now I only like them that way.
I love the Jimmy Dean breakfasts. They are very tasty.
These breakfasts are awesome. They are great for quick mornings.
Oh these are so so good. I bet these are a favorite for your kiddos!
Our middle/high schools start later too. 🙂 This breakfast does look good!
This looks delicious! Easy to make breakfast are perfect for busy mornings!
I make sure that the kids never miss breakfast no matter how busy I am during the morning. I think this quick and easy recipe is really good and they'll love it!
That sure looks like a hearty breakfast to me. I am sure your kids love having this for breakfast everyday. My kids are all grown ups now but when they were young, I also made sure they went to school with a full stomach. They need all those nutrients to fuel their brains. 🙂
