Breakfast for Dinner

Sometimes I just want breakfast for dinner.

I have to say that whipping up some eggs & toast or making a stack of my banana pancakes is usually my meal of choice whenever I feel like there’s “nothing” in the house to eat. Translation: I’m too lazy to prepare what I originally had planned, OR my life is busy. Either way, breakfast is a quick fix, and there isn’t anything wrong with that. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day after all. And did I mention it’s my favorite! If I can have it twice in one day then I’m a very happy camper. But what’s a girl to do when she’s craving both breakfast AND Mexican food?! That is a serious dilemma and one that I came across the other evening.My first thought was to just make some breakfast burritos but that sounded too boring, and I didn’t have tortillas on hand anyways. So instead, I fixed my own version of Huevos Rancheros, and it turned out great!! The best part is that this delicious meal takes only a few minutes to throw together.

The most work I did was put the pinto beans in the Crockpot around 2pm and let them cook for about 4-5 hours. Then when 7 o’clock rolled around all I had to do was fry two eggs, put the food on a plate, add some salsa & avocado, and Ta-Da!! Dinner, or should I say breakfast, was served.

So, the next time you think you have “nothing” to make for dinner, just remember that most of the time you’ve got eggs in the house. And cooking Breakfast for Dinner is a much healthier option than driving up to Taco Bell, DQ, or McDonald’s for a Crunch-Heart Attack-Supreme, PantBuster, or a Not So Happy Meal.

Just saying.
