Christmas Breakfast

Tasty Tuesday has arrived and I haven’t done a recipe post in a while so I’m really excited to get this one up for you all! I love the holidays and even better I love when you can make a yummy treat from Christmas breakfast! Christmas dinner is important but sometimes we forget that the first meal we eat that day shouldn’t be from a paper take out bag! So without further ado…

Christmas Breakfast: Blueberry Cheese Rolls from Kraft foods

This is fairly simple; all you need are 4 ingredients, about 20 minutes for prep time and ta-da, you have a yummy breakfast for the whole family!

• 1 pkg. (8 oz.) refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
• 4 oz.  (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) Cream Cheese, softened
• 2 Tbsp. sugar
• 1/2 cup  blueberries, divided

Heat oven to 375. Unroll dough into four rectangles; firmly press perforations together to seal.
Combine cream cheese and sugar; spread onto dough rectangles to within 1/2 inch of edges. Top evenly with blueberries. Bring opposite corners of rectangles together; press together to seal. Place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake 11 to 13 min. or until golden brown.

Eat and enjoy!

Spice Up Your Lunch!

Looking for something to spice up your lunch that won’t over fill your belly? Try this super fresh and super delicious veggie sandwich and if you’re not into full on veggie, try adding a bit of turkey or chicken breast.

Ingredients:  

• 2 slices of thick multigrain bread
• 2 slices of tomato
• 2 to 3 slices of dill havarti cheese
• 2 pieces of red leaf lettuce
• 4 thick-cut cucumber slices (I recommend slicing the cuke on the diagonal)
• Thinly-sliced red onion, to taste
• About 1/3 cup of shredded carrots
• About 1/4 of an avocado, sliced
• Dijon mustard and mayonnaise

Spread Dijon mustard on one slice of the multigrain, then top with cheese, lettuce, onion, cucumber, and tomato. Scatter the carrots evenly across the tomato, then put the avocado on top of the carrots. Spread mayo on the other slice of bread and lightly press the slice onto the veggie pile. Hold with both hands and eat!

*Also if you want more flavor put the carrots and lettuce in a bowl and splash in a little bit of vinaigrette.
