Celebrating Alivia's 10th Birthday

 Happy 10 th Birthday Sweet Alivia....I am writing this post the night before your birthday.  I have been working for the past 4 hours on this smilebox video, and I must say I cried almost the whole time.  Tears of joy, and of sadness. Joy because I see the beautiful little girl that you have always been, but even more precious as I see the little young lady you are becoming.  You are a delight to  your family Alivia...you are so caring, and you have such a beautiful heart & spirit.  You touch so many with your life and who you are.  We ae so proud of you &  we love you so much!!

All you Deep Covered Baker lovers...Here is a wonderful breakfast/brunch recipe for you!!  This can be made in the Deep Covered Baker (serves 8-10)or the New Round Covered Baker (for 2-4)  This recipe can be modified to your likes (add red green peppers, mushroom, bacon, whatever!!) it is a wonderful recipe...I just cut in half this recipe for the mini baker.  The bakers are available on my website everyday all day at www.pamperedchef.biz/vickimehaffey

Enjoy!! Let me know you make it!!



 
1 or 2 potatoes, peeled/cubed
1 small onion, chopped
2 T butter, sliced
8 eggs, beaten
1/2 c heavy whipping cream (i used milk)
salt/pepper
cheddar & Monterey Jack cheese
bacon or any other or NO meat...Up to you!!
Cook the bacon in the bar pan in a 400-425° oven for 20-25 minutes.
Cut potatoes into small chucks.
Using Food Chopper, chop onion. Place potato & onion into bottom of Deep Covered Baker. Run butter through Egg Slicer or knife & place slices on top of potato/onions. Cover & microwave for 3 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk eggs with Stainless Steel Whisk; whisk in heavy whipping cream; add salt & pepper to taste (ok, laugh - can't taste at this point!). Grate cheeses with Rotary Grater. When the potatoes are fork tender, sprinkle half of the cheese over them. Pour the egg mixture over top & sprinkle on rest of the cheese. Cook in the microwave for 13 minutes. Chop bacon with Knife or chopper? & sprinkle on top. Serve with more shredded cheese, if desired.
(opt.: fresh mushrooms – sliced w/Egg Slicer, green pepper/knife &/or chopper) You can add ham or cooked sausage in place of bacon to egg mixture or veggies to the onion, potato layer. Make sure to check the middle of the eggs to see they are cooked all the way.

If you read this, and like it...let me know.  Your encouragement keeps me going!!  Thanks for reading!
