I often get requests from people, especially those
in my Back on Track with Barbara Internet Mentoring Program, for
different breakfast ideas. It is a challenge to find something unusual.
The monotony of eggs can make breakfast really boring.
Here is a great breakfast idea from the book
90
Ways to Ditch Your Diet by chef and bariatric patient David
Fouts.
Cheery Cherry Brunch Pie
1/2 pound turkey sausage
1 16 oz can unsweetened tart cherries, drained and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup low fat cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup reduced fat baking mix
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
4 large eggs
1-1/2 cup 1% milk
Preheat oven to 400° F.
In a large skillet, cook sausage until brown,
breaking into small pieces as it cooks; drain off fat.
Remove from heat.
Add cherries, mix well.
Spoon sausage and cherry mixture into a 10-inch deep-dish
pie plate; top with chese.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine baking mix, basil
and pepper.
Add eggs and milk; beat until smooth. Pour over
cheese.
Bake 35 to 40 minutes, or until a knife inserted in
center comes out clean.
Let cool 5 minutes.
Makes 6 servings.
