::Breakfast Eats::

*conversation from yesterday*
Me: okay Luke, time to head onto bed. Tomorrow's another day gotta get your rest.
Luke: why mommy?
*points to the window*
Me: see that? That's the moon. Mr. Sun went to bed and the moon came out which means you have to go to sleep. And we're going to have a lot to do tomorrow.
Luke: *sighs* okay. But I have to tell you something first mommy
Me: And what's that love?
Luke: I don't like the moon.
Me: I know. It's okay. sweet dreams babes
Luke: I love you mommy.

As a kid I never really liked to sleep either. I hated my afternoon naps and always envied my parents because they always had something to do. I always had that mentality that if I closed my eyes for 2 seconds something was going to happen and I was going to miss out on it. And as I got older I took one every chance I got.  Now, my own kids take after my traits just 21 years ago. Funny how life can repeat itself sometimes.

So breakfast today consisted of Aidells Chicken & Apple Sausages & scrambled eggs.

Another easy, simple thing to whip up in the mornings. First time I saw this was at the demo tables at Costcos. It's got a tad bit of sweetness to it because of the apple, but it blends in purfectly with the scrambled eggs. My batteries were charging this morning and I apologize for not taking any pictures. So I'll go with the step-by-step I did with my breakfast creation.

You'll Need:

1. 2-3 eggs (depending of how empty your stomach is)

2. 1 pack of Aidells Chicken & Apple flavored sausages**

3. 1/2 - 1 cup of milk

4. 1-2 tablespoons of Lawry's seasoned salt

5. 1/2 - 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.

**I openly admit that I'm a huge Costco whore. The Aidells sausages they sell there is what you see on the image above. Which is 2-8 packs for roughly $13 here in Fresno, CA. We also have a FE or Fresh & Easy Supermarket around the corner which is like the cheaper version of Whole Foods where they sell the sausages in small packs of 4 for about $4.99. Which brings me to the conclusion that Costco is about 10xx cheaper. Anything that I buy from Costcos can literally feed my family for a month. So whatever I get from there, I'd usually divide into porportional ziploc/freezer bags when I get home.

1. In a mixing bowl, beat & whip the eggs for about a good 2-3 mins while having the stove on a low/med setting & a saucepan with the vegetable oil. 

2 While the pan is heating up, combine the milk & the seasoned salt into the mixing bowl with the eggs.

3. Eggs go into the saucepan & while chopping up the sausages.

4. Remember to cook the sausages separately or else scrambled egg sausages isn't going to look pretty.

I usually top it off with fresh cooked white rice on the side but that's just my preference. Flapjacks & hash browns are sometimes too much work especially during the mornings when everyone is starving and antsy for food.

Anyways, I hope everyone has an awesome weekend!! I can't imagine a better way of celebrating my 4th than spending time with my kids and the love of my life who sacrifices his life fighting for my freedom as well as everybody elses. Thank you dear husband & ALL the men, women, sons, daughters for EVERYTHING you do for this country. Happy 4th everyone!! :)
