I was so excited this week. I got a new crock pot! Yea! Now my daughter seems to think I have too many of them and should retire a few. I only have 7 or 8 of them. They are of various sizes and they all cook differently. I have small crock pots for hot dips. Several medium size ones for desserts and larger ones for dinners and parties. My new one has a digital timer to set for when you wanted it to turn off which actually has come in handy for those recipes that only take a few hours to cook and I forget to turn off. The only drawback from this crock pot is that the power went off in my house several times this week (not due to crock pots using too much energy) but from bad weather so when it went off so did the crock pot. Later I found my food half cooked and then I would have to turn it back on and reset it. Do you think I paid attention to the time? NO! I just set it and forget like those Ronco Rotisseries.So now I have learned to look at the clock before setting the time on my new crock pot. Anyway, I had fun trying new recipes this week. One of my favorites was this breakfast casserole. It didn't look very pretty, but it was good and went together quickly. I took it to work and it received good reviews. I made this one in a 4 qt. crock pot. Next time I think I will probably double the recipe and put it in a 6 qt. crock pot.
INGREDIENTS:
4 eggs
4-5 pieces of cooked bacon or sausage (I had a little of both)
¼ cup of milk
½ cup of grated cheese
1 can of 5 biscuits
1 cup of frozen hash browns
Directions:
Butter the bottom of the crock pot. Then lay the biscuits on the bottom, followed by the hash browns.In a small bowl mix up the rest of the ingredients, then pour over the biscuits. Cover and then cook on high for 1- ½ hours until the biscuit edges start to turn brown and the eggs set.
