Whenever I’m feeling this way, I usually turn to breakfast for dinner–Brinner! I can count on having all of the ingredients I need to whip up something really easy that my family will love, like these simple Egg and Sausage Breakfast Taquitos, or my favorite 5-minute Blender Whole Wheat Pancakes. (Both recipes are freezer friendly, by the way. So, if you don’t have any time at all you can pull some from the freezer and heat them up for dinner!)
I always have to cook an extra few slices of the Jones Dairy Farm Cherrywood Smoked Bacon because my family just can’t wait until dinner is ready. We’re a total bacon-loving family, especially my boys. I also really like their Turkey Bacon, which you could easily substitute in this recipe.
