Recipes, recipes, recipes. =)

Crispy Baked Breakfast Taquitos *these are great to make ahead of time and freeze. You can make a bunch and just pull them out for breakfast!*

Ingredients:
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
12 large eggs
1/2 C sour cream
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 1/2 C grated pepper-jack cheese
1/4 C chopped roasted red bell peppers
1/4 C sliced green onions
16 6" flour tortillas

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil for easy clean up. Spray with cooking spray or lightly brush oil and set aside.

Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Crack eggs into large mixing bowl. Whisk in 1/2 sour cream, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. When skillet is hot, add egg mixture to the pan. Using a rubber spatula, gently scrape the bottom of pan and fold eggs over to scramble. Remove from heat when slightly undercooked. Add cheese, roasted peppers, green onions, and gently fold to combine.

Warm tortillas in a microwave to ease rolling process. Working with a few tortillas at one time, place a scant 1/4 C egg mixture into the middle of each one and roll into a cylinder. Place rolled tortillas on prepared baking sheet, seam-side down, so they are not touching each other. When all tortillas are rolled and filled, lightly spray tops with cooking spray, or lightly brush olive oil. bake for 15 minutes or until edges are golden brown and crisp.

Strawberry Banana Trifle
Ingredients:
5 oz instant vanilla pudding
3 c cold milk
9" angel food cake (cut in chunks)
4 bananas (sliced)
16 oz fresh strawberries (sliced or cut big)
12 oz whipped topping (thawed)

Mix instant pudding and milk. In trifle, layer half of each: cake chunks, pudding, bananas, strawberries, and whipped topping. Repeat layers. Serve fresh!

Creamy Tarragon Chicken
Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts
1 T. olive oil
1 Small onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
4-5 C. of tomatoes 
1 t. tarragon
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 c. Cream 
2-3 T. flour
Sliced mushrooms

Season chicken with salt and pepper. Saute chicken in olive oil until light brown. (I like to pound the chicken to make sure they are nice and tender) Remove from pan. Saute onion and garlic until translucent. Put chicken back in pan and add tomatoes and tarragon. Cover and simmer 30 minutes to an hour. Add mushrooms the last 15 minutes. Lastly, add cream and flour. Whisk until well blended and thickened. Serve over rice.

Hope you enjoy!
