What is your favorite quick breakfast recipe?
USASillyYaks
I'm a huge fan of any quick recipe. I love breakfast burritos which is simply a warm corn tortilla filled with eggs, cheese, and bacon (can even be that microwaved kind). I also think that pancakes are a pretty quick breakfast. Especially if you make them and freeze them. Pancakes freeze suprisingly well. Then on weekdays they can be popped into the microwave for a quick breakfast.What's your family's favorite easy crock pot recipe?

I am a HUGE fan of the loaded potato soup recipe for my crock pot. It tastes amazing and it is super easy to make. You can tailor the toppers according to your own family's favorites. It is one of my favorites for those chilly Fall and Winter evenings.What's your family's favorite recipe for weekend breakfasts?

I'm a huge fan of waffles. They aren't very difficult to make, but they feel "special". I always make extra to put into the freezer for a quick breakfast later on. I have shared a fun waffle recipe with you for Apple Cider Doughnut Belgian Waffles....they are simply amazing!!What's a great treat for spring or Easter? (Please include a link!)

Ham is the meat of choice at Easter in our family. I recently had trouble finding a "cheap" gluten free glazed ham. I decided to purchase unglazed and create my own glaze to put ontop....which saved me some major money!!! Here is my blog post with the glazed ham recipe. http://usasillyyaks.blogspot.com/2011/12/my-ham-dilemma-and-ham-glaze-recipe.htmlWhat's your favorite muffin recipe?

Pasta salad used to be a favorite of mine before being diagnosed with Celiac. So I am always on the search for great pasta salad recipes. Gluten free pasta salad can be tricky. You have to start with amazing pasta for it to work. I have found my brand that works and now I enjoy trying and creating all sorts of gluten free pasta salads. Here is a fun one that I created called Everything But The Kitchen Sink Italian Pasta Salad. I hope you enjoy it. http://usasillyyaks.blogspot.com/2012/01/everything-but-kitchen-sink-italian.htmlWhat's a great recipe using ground beef?

Before being diagnosed with Celiac and going gluten free I was a fan of Mozzarella Cheese sticks....well those are of course not gluten free. I decided to create my own and came up with these yummy Gluten Free Mozzarella Cheese Bites. Serve them with some pizza sauce for dipping and I can guarantee they won't be around for long!What's your favorite muffin, scone, or bread recipe?
