Turkey Day Idea?!


I saw this on an episode of Rachael Ray we Tivoed recently. Sounds & looks de-lish! Even I would be able to make it...

Ingredients-
A couple tablespoons butter, melted
3 eggs
Splash of milk or cream, whatever you have in your fridge
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 bag Jimmy Dean Turkey Sausage Crumbles
6 slices bread

Preparation-
Preheat oven to 400ºF.

Baste the inside of each cup of a 6-cup muffin tin with the melted butter and set aside.

In a medium-size mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk then fold in sausage crumbles and cheese, and set aside.

Cut a slit in the corner of each slice of bread from the middle of the slice to the edge and lightly press it into a cup of the muffin tin, overlapping the pieces where you cut the slit so it fits into the cup without tearing. Repeat with the remaining bread.

Carefully pour the sausage, egg and cheese mixture into each cup. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes, until egg is set and bread is golden brown. Remove each sausage egg and cheese cup from the muffin tin and serve.

Let me know how it turns out! YUM-O, Rick.

Whooo's Thankful?!


I love this little owl. I borrowed a friend's owl punch! It cuts out all the parts...wings, body, feet, beek & eyeballs. I'm also diggin' on the new Nestie! A couple of felt adhesive leaves from Target...OMG...they were only a $1 for a whole bag, and a Cuttlebuged piece of beige cardstock & presto...a cute card! Hope you owl have a great holiday! XO Rick.

We've had a fabulous fall this year! I love it. Chicago's been so pretty! So I started on my fall cards. I used Inkadinkado clear stamps, Cuttlebug folder, Paper Trey paper, scallop & deckle scissors, Memento ink & Kaleidascope Autumn Leaves ink, circle punch & a fun felt leaf. Hope you like, Rick.
