{cadbury protein balls}

The other day I heard someone say “what’s a Cadbury mini egg?”  Like WTF?  Are you even living?  If you’re one of those odd ducks that don’t know – you are missing out. It’s a delicious egg-shaped chocolate that’s coated in a colorful candy shell. Sadly, they are only available during Easter season, so it’s necessary to eat as many as you can while you can!

So, let’s add some protein powder and call them “healthy” k?

Have yourself a merry little Christmas…..

We are officially 2 weeks from Christmas.  How did that happen? 

I LOVE being the Christmas Coordinator of our “unit.”  Always a tad bit over the top.  Decorating the day after Halloween, even when everyone says, “it’s wayyyy too early!”  Plugging in the Christmas lights…..and never turning them off till December 31st.  Begging for a new picture to slap on our Christmas cards (which, by the way, did not happen this year) Bringing all the traditions back to life each year.  And, sometimes even making NEW memories.  Which brings me here…….

{sausage egg biscuit casserole}

Can you believe we’re already talking Holidays? Or is that just me? Ha!

We officially put up our Christmas lights on our house. And have them plugged in! Bay + I put them up while Cory was golfing last weekend. He would have NEVER put them up this early, but he hasn’t complained. I think he’s just relived he didn’t have to do it. lol.

And, if I had a fake tree – it would also be up and lit up right now! But, we have to wait until Thanksgiving.

I got realllllly off topic….. I’m really here to share a new recipe!!

This breakfast casserole is incredibly easy to put together It can be made the night before and stored in the fridge until it’s go time. Pop into the oven and you’re good to go! This is the perfect, throw together, meal when you are feeding a small crowd or for the Holidays.

Wonder if the fam bam would be down with trying something new this Christmas morning?
