Sausage and cheddar cheese are the stars in these tender and flaky savory scones. 
They are the perfect addition to your breakfast or brunch menu!

Happy March 1st! That feels really weird to say...because how can it be March already? I swear we were just celebrating the New Year! Well the good thing about it being March is that Spring is right around the corner. We've had a pretty mild winter here in Michigan, so I can't complain, but I'm definitely looking forward to warmer temperatures and seeing the sunshine a little more often. I don't like these dark, gray days! 

Cheddar & Sausage Frittata #BrunchWeek

A perfectly cooked frittata is much easier to make than you might think! Especially when it's baked in the oven. 
Sausage, extra sharp cheddar cheese, red bell pepper and kale make this frittata perfect for any meal of the day!

Brunch week is coming to a close, and I have to admit I'm a bit sad! I've had a blast creating new recipes to share with you this week, and I hope you've enjoyed them all. The dishes I've made have been loved by my whole family, and I'm excited that I now have new things to make us on the weekends, or for special occasions.

Although I've loved every single thing I've made, I think this frittata might just be my favorite. It's baked in the oven, so it's super simple to make. The great thing about frittatas is that you can add whatever ingredients you have on hand. Turkey or ham, your favorite veggies, herbs, really the possibilities are endless. Plus, they can be eaten hot from the oven, at room temperature, or even cold. They are extremely versatile!

We all know how much I love pasta, and it's been quite awhile since I shared a new pasta recipe. Well, it's about time I change that! I've been experimenting with different combinations and flavors, and this Ziti with Eggplant, Sausage and Parmesan is my new favorite.

Other than traditional eggplant parm, I've never cooked eggplant in a pasta dish before. Once I tried this dish, I realized I had really been missing out! The cubes of eggplant turn soft and tender, and the their flavor pairs perfectly with the Italian sausage.

Spring Pasta and Smoked Sausage #CookingWithGuyFieri

I participated in a Influencer Activation for Guy Fieri Sausage. I received product samples to facilitate my review as well as a promotional item to thank me for my participation, however, all opinions are my own.

I've always been a pasta lover, but lately it seems like we've been eating it more than usual. I've been trying new things, and not using red sauce all the time. Now my youngest son is huge fan of red sauce, so getting him to eat pasta the non-traditional way has been a challenge, but lucky for me the dishes I've made he has liked!

I was recently sent some of Guy Fieri's new smoked sausages to try out, and was more than excited to come up with a new recipe using them! I love using sausage with pasta, so this was another chance for me to come up with an amazing pasta recipe. The two sausage varieties I received were the Italian and the Mozzarella and Parmesan Cheese. Both right up my alley!
