This casserole is SO easy to make and SUPER tasty! I was at a ladies breakfast a few weeks ago and one of my friends, Jamie, made it. She told us the ingredients and cooking time... and it was SO simple. I made it a few times and my husband said, "Please never make this again!" Why? Because he ate 3/4 of it!!
What's so great about it is you don't need ANY spices/salt. With the sausage and cheese it provides all the spice/salt you need, TRUST ME! It's assembled like a lasagna, super easy!

1package of lean sausage (I bought Jimmy Dean, it's about a lb.)
1 can of crescent rolls
4 or 5 beaten eggs
1 bag of shredded mozzarella  (you want to use ONLY mozzarella or else the cheese will burn and kill the dish)

Set your oven to crescent rolls baking temp, usually 375. Meanwhile, cook sausage. Once its cooked through drain/pat dry the fat. You don't have to do this but we try to eat as lean as possible even on less healthy meal choices. Roll out the crescent dough on the bottom of glass baking dish, cover with cooked sausage, pour beaten eggs over that, and top it off with shredded cheese. Place it in the oven for about 25-30 mins, or until the casserole has firmed up. If you slice it and it juices up, eggs haven't fully cooked. The cheese should brown up quite a bit. (the picture shown was 10mins before it was ready..so it browned quite a bit more)

This morning my hubby and I got to enjoy these smoothies and the Cozy Cottage Muffins (recipe below) that I made last night. The kids had a sleep-over night with friends, so it was truly a “blissful” morning. The tip with breakfast smoothies is to wash and cut the fruit the night before, or use pre-packaged frozen fruit so you can just throw everything in the blender in the morning. I peel and freeze bananas because I like the taste of a frozen smoothie, and you can stock up when they are on sale. Just blend and serve!
1 Banana
1 cup Strawberries
1 cup plain low-fat yogurt (or fat free plain Greek yogurt)
1 T Flax Seed Oil
1 T Raw Honey
1 or 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
Optional: Throw in some protein powder. I recommend Garden of Life’s “Goatein” or “Raw” protein powders.
Variations of the recipe include the Orange Creamsicle Smoothie (1 banana and 1 cup fresh squeezed orange juice), Chocolate-Banana (1 banana, 2 T raw organic cocoa powder), and Very Berry (1 cup blueberries, 1 cup strawberries or other mixed berries), with all other ingredients remaining the same. It's a yummy way to start the morning!

Besides the puppy, no one in our house is a morning person. But when I was a stay at home mommy, my kids never had cereal for breakfast. I always made eggs, waffles, toast, etc. Now that all four of us have some where to be quite early in the morning I have to improvise. These yummy breakfast treats are a hybrid of omelets and muffins. The prep time is about 15 minutes. If you double up on the recipe, you can make them on the weekend and then freeze them in a zip-lock bag and microwave them in the morning.
2/3 cup low fat cottage cheese
