Skillet Eggy Jambalaya Breakfast Bake

Skillet Eggy Jambalaya Breakfast Bake

This post is sponsored by Tony Chachere’s, but all opinions are 100% my own.

Jambalaya is a classic Cajun dish that is full of flavor and one of my favorite rice dishes to enjoy. Typically it is served at dinnertime and sometimes can be tricky to get the rice just right. Lucky for you, I have a shortcut way to enjoy jambalaya any time of day thanks to the help of my friends at Tony Chachere’s. I used Tony Chachere’s jambalaya dinner mix to make you a delicious breakfast or brunch idea that will not disappoint and the rice comes out perfect every time. This recipe for my skillet eggy jambalaya breakfast bake is hands down my new favorite easy meal to whip when I want a savory breakfast that is full of flavor.

Buffalo Chicken Salad

7-Day Healthy Meal Plan

Let’s just call January a wash shall we? It was a transition month where we all found ourselves easing into a new year and maybe we hit our new years goals, orrrr maybe we didn’t or haven’t yet. In my case, I didn’t and honestly didn’t even try to start, so I am starting fresh in February! I am not a huge fan of new years resolutions, but I do love a good reset when I find I need it and I’m at that point where I need to go a couple of weeks of eating super clean. I created this 7-Day Meal Healthy Meal Plan to help us all get a little inspired to eat a little more mindful without sacrificing any flavor!

Not only are these muffins made from whole wheat flour, but they are also made using non-refined sugar, and despite their healthy ingredients are absolutely delicious!

This recipe is great for easy meal prepping and I find that it really does make a difference when I have something like this ready to go on rushed mornings and when my afternoon sweet tooth kicks in.

The Best Pepita Granola

The Best Pepita Granola

This is a granola unlike any other granolas. This pepita granola is one that I originally made to go on top of a fall chicken salad, but because of it’s popularity, I decided that it needed to have it’s own special space for you to reference. And if you are thinking “granola on a salad?” I would say, don’t knock it until you try it! It’s actually quite the combo and provides the perfect little crunch and slight sweetness that takes your salad to the next level. Of course if you are a granola purist, and simply want to eat granola for breakfast or a snack, that clearly works too…which is why I decided to give this granola it’s very own post. This recipe for the best pepita granola will have you wanting to make a new batch to have on hand every single week.
