Well these kid-friendly zucchini tots are the perfect solution! Make them in mini muffin tins for the perfect little side for breakfast or dinner! I found this recipe on the Two Bite Club which I slightly adapted and they turned out great. My husband who is not a huge fan of zucchini loved them and they disappeared quick. Just be sure to generously spray the muffin tins to prevent them from sticking. I know what you're thinking, another zucchini recipe? A few of my favorites are Zucchini Enchiladas (perfect for meatless Mondays), Chicken Rollatini Stuffed with Zucchini and Mozzarella, Zucchini Pizza Bites and last week's Sausage Stuffed Zucchini Boats.

Beautiful Bacon, Egg, & Cheese Wreath & The Inspiration Behind It All Steelmom. While watching videos for the new Kraft Cooking Creme, at the Real Women of Philadelphia, I came across this recipe I found so intriguing.
The RWoPer that inspired me to make this wreath is known as "Steelmom". For me, her nickname has always been perfect for her, since she is someone I admire for being a hard working mother inside and outside of the home. She must be made of steel to do all that she does, working full time as a sales representative for a steel mill, raising a family, and not to mention creating the most beautiful hand painted ornaments. Her wonderful recipe and how to video for her Santa Fe Breakfast Ring can be found at the link below. You can also check out some pics found on her profile, of her beautiful hand painted ornaments.

I wanted to do something fun and different for one of the breakfasts and came across an idea for eggs in a bread bowl. Not only were these guys delicious, they were completely customizable.
