Cheesy Apple Scrambled Eggs



This morning I was attempting to make eggs in a basket with a leftover Kaiser roll.  Unfortunately, the circles fell apart long before eggs got into them.  Fortunately, this problem led to some yummy inspiration.  Below is the recipe.  This is mostly an eyeball recipe since I was just using what I had lying around.

You'll need the following:

  • 1 Kaiser roll cut in half and then into cubes
  • 1-2 tablespoons of coconut oil
  • about 1/2 cup of chopped apples (I used granny and gala)
  • 4 eggs
  • pinch of sea salt
  • about 2 tablespoons of milk
  • about a 1/3 of a bag of shredded cheese.
Start by melting half of the coconut oil on a skillet or in a pan.  Put the roll chunks on to start browning them.  Once they start to get crispy, add the apples and the rest of the coconut oil.
Bread and apples browning.


As the bread and apples continue to brown, crack the eggs into a large bowl.  Add pinch of salt and milk.
Eggs, milk, and salt.

Whisk eggs, salt, and milk until well mixed.

Now add cheese.

Mix cheese until well blended.

Pour mixture over apples and bread.  Stir around to make sure all bread is well coated.

Continue to scramble until eggs are well cooked.

Serve warm and enjoy!  It was a hit with my husband, son, and mother-in-law.

Pinterest is Responsible for this Inspiration of Evil



I am working on and fleshing out some really deep and hopefully inspiring posts, but Pinterest is responsible for sparking all kinds of creativity in me and sidelining more meaningful projects. The below recipe is inspired by all the things with Oreos shoved in them.

You'll need the following:

  • 1-2 boxes of Funfetti Cake Mix
  • The ingredients to make the cake according to the directions (water, oil, eggs)
  • 24 regular Oreos
  • 24 Golden Oreos
  • peanut butter
  • Nutella



Mix the cake mix according to the box.  I only used one box in this recipe, but two may have been better.


Spread a layer on the bottom if using one box, half if doing the whole box.


Start spreading peanut butter on the regular Oreos.



Arrange them in the pan on top of the first layer of batter until you have used all 24.




Start spreading Nutella on the Golden Oreos.


Arrange them on top of the regular Oreos until you have used all 24.



Pour the remaining batter on top.  Spread around if necessary.



Bake for at least 10 minutes more than the directions on the box.  Check the cake with a toothpick.  It is done when the toothpick comes out clean of batter.  You may also need to rotate the cake half way though if you oven sometimes bakes a little unevenly.


Let cool for at least 10 minutes.  Once cooled, cut and enjoy.  It's great if it's still a little warm.  MMMMMmmmmm
