I love a good savory breakfast. Add some cheese and you’ve got a winner for sure! I was searching through Pinterest for some inspiration for a good post-workout, cold morning refuel and I came upon a new twist on waffles. A super savory, non-wheat amazing sounding CHEESY waffle! These waffles are so ridiculously easy and … More Egg, Cheese, and Potato Waffles
With my parents in town I wanted to make sure I had an easy breakfast ready to go and if there were leftovers…even better!

They were Southern, through and through, but they were vegetarian (how very Californian of them!) One day, we were having breakfast with them, and she mentioned that she loved making her … More Vegetarian Biscuits and Gravy

Like, you had to be from the south and sit at your grandma’s knee to learn the secret to a fluffy, thick, delicious biscuit. Apparently, it’s not- who knew?
