About Me

Starting a blog was essential for me. I have been eating Paleo for over 2 years now! In addition to experimenting daily with new recipes, I am an interior designer and own a HUGE consignment store in Kalamazoo, MI. I am also an avid gardener and treasure hunter. Did I mention I love a great bargain?! A piece of furniture that needs a coat of paint, or a found object that screams to be repurposed. "Reuse, repurpose and recycle" is not just a cliche, it is a way of life! I have searched for a word that encompasses MY life. Maybe it has not yet been created. Maybe this blog will help me find it.

Paleo Breakfast Pie...just delicious!

When life gets busy, meals start to get predictable.  I was getting tired of boring breakfast all the time, so I decided to experiment with a few ingredients, and it is awesome!

Ingredients:
1 lb breakfast sausage (in a tube)
7 eggs
1/2 lb bacon, cubed
small sweet potato, cubed
small sweet onion, diced
1 garlic clove, minced

1. Mix sausage with 1 egg and press into a baking dish or pie plate (it is slimy).
2. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes.  Pour out extra grease after it cooks.  It won't be cooked through, but it will finish cooking later.
3. While sausage is baking, cook up bacon in a pan until crisp.
4. Remove bacon onto paper towel to remove grease.
5.  Keep some grease in the pan and add garlic, sweet potato and onion.  Cook for about 9 minutes.
6. Top sausage with potato/onion mixture.
7. Add 6 eggs on top of that.  Don't break the yolks!
8. Add bacon to the top. Sprinkle with black pepper.
9. Cook 16 more minutes.  Eggs will look overeasy, but are mostly cooked through.
10.  Enjoy and pass along to your Paleo friends!
