Summer has officially hit and I've officially hibernated. It was so hot and humid this week I was barely outside at all. Going to have to change that if I want to keep the scales heading on a downward slope.

Breakfast for Dinner 1/29 & the collateral damage
Tuesday nights are Breakfast for Dinner in my house. It gets difficult sometimes finding new and exciting things to cook without simply relying on Eggs and Bacon or Pancakes. Every now and then just by happenstance I stumble onto something yummy and did that ever happen today.

B'fast for dinner March 20th and grape tip
Tonight's Menus:
Upside Down Impossible Casserole and Fruit Salad
Before I get into tonight's yummy meal I thought I would share a cooking tip that makes things so much easier! Whether it is grapes or small tomatoes cutting them in half is one of those tedious chores. BUT not with my trick. I learned this years ago from Sarah Moulton. The fancy tool required: 2 tops from take out soup containers.
So dinner tonight was a new recipe I created. It is a combination of favorites so I am going to call it Upside Down Breakfast Casserole.
Ingredients:

- 1 pound bacon cooked
- 1 3/4 c milk
- 1 cup bisquik
- 4 eggs
- salt and pepper to taste
Set oven to 400 degrees
(I baked my bacon in the oven)
Place butter in 9x13 casserole. Place in oven until butter melts. Combine brown sugar with melted butter and spread to thin layer. Cover with crushed pineapple. Place the cooked bacon on top of the crushed pineapple, breaking if necessary so all fits... DO NOT CRUMBLE. Mix remaining ingredients. Slowly pour on top of bacon. Bake for 20 minutes or until top is set. Invert onto serving platter.
