For the Love of Breakfast

Happy hump day! 
 
It's almost noon and I'm still in pj's with my hunk eating a little brunch, I thought I'd share the healthy but yummy recipe I whipped up! 
 
Today babe flies out to SoCal and we are spending the morning relaxing before we have to start adulting! We woke up late and he was craving biscuits and gravy, I love breakfast foods! I don't care if it's 4 in the morning or 11 at night, bring on the biscuits! Recently, I found a biscuits and gravy casserole that I loved and my biggest reason for doing a casserole instead of just making biscuits and gravy is that it's less mess, will hold for more than one day which means less waste! I tweaked this recipe to be healthier since I'm doing my 30-day challenge by using turkey bulk sausage, less salt, and reduced fat milk. I put this in an 8x8 or 9x9 square glass baking dish with a lid so I can store for easy breakfasts throughout the week! 

Ingredients:
  • 16 oz Jenny-O lean ground turkey breakfast sausage 
  • 8 pack Pillsbury Southern Style biscuits, I use the "butter-tastin'" kind
  • 3 cups of reduced fat milk
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray cooking oil in the bottom of the baking dish, cut biscuits into quarters and layer half on the bottom of the dish, bake for 15 minutes. Cook turkey over medium-high heat until brown. Whisk flour, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl and sprinkle it over the turkey. Mix until absorbed. Stir in milk, keep stirring occasionally until the mixture thickens. This may take about 5-10 minutes. The biscuits should be finished by this time, pour the sausage gravy over the semi-cooked biscuits and layer the top with the rest of the biscuits. Bake for minutes, tops of the biscuits will be golden brown. Allow to sit for 5 minutes then indulge! Sometimes I scramble eggs as well but this plenty by itself as well!

Growth, Perspective, and Silence

"Some days, I can conquer the world. Other days, it takes me three hours to convince myself to shower"- the perfect Pinterest quote! This 27th year has been one of growth and reflection. I truly thought looking at 27 year-old people then that by the time I had reached this point that I would be an independent, sexy, confident woman with this spectacular job and a hardworking stud by my side! Some of this came true, but not much! I've got the stud, that's about it! That being said, I came into this year thinking that I knew who I was, where I was heading and that I had a great man to share it all with. One thing that people normally won't tell you is that when your relationship becomes committed and you're around the other person practically 24/7, they begin to see your flaws and, if you're as lucky as I am, they begin to help you become a better person. One thing that anyone who knows us will tell you is that when you meet the beau and I for the first ti...

We Don't Talk About That...

Mental health has never been a "hot topic" or a common dinner conversation, it is usually dusted under the rug and left to fester til another day. Honestly, I'm writing this for my own mental health, rather my sanity. Since this virus took over our lives, being forced to live completely out of the norm has made mental health become a little bit more of a subject but not by much. Being bored and forced to be in the same house almost 24/7 can cause you to focus on things you wouldn't normally think about. This is also true for myself. Up until now, I haven't really discussed with anyone but close friends and family what I have struggled with for a long time. To me, you talk about it and everyone will think you're looney. Well, I'm over it and tired of hiding it so here goes! When I lived in Orlando, I had extremely high anxiety for the first time. I was basically alone full time miles away from my hometown. I tried so desperately to avoid facing what I...

Thirty-Onederful!

Today I turned 31, it was a different birthday vibe than I usually have. Typically, I get really into my plans and can't wait for the day to come. Maybe it is because our plans changed drastically suddenly or because of the imminent threat of the hurricane looming in the back of my mind. But today ended up much better than originally anticipated! Of course, I needed the birthday Snapchat filter! Our plans were to go to Croom which is a motocross park ran by the state. The property used to be phosphate mines in Brooksville, it has since been used for motocross celebs and locals for enjoyment. Last minute, literally 5 hours before we were supposed to head north, the boyfriend tells me that due to the pain in the rump hurricane barreling towards the east coast they are closing the park. Talk about blonde emoji facepalm, ugh!! Now, I do not ride a dirt bike, heck I barely have the coordination to walk and chew gum at the same time. But I enjoy disconnecting, hiking, and relaxin...
