Your idea sounds great! What receipes do you use for the breads? I fix banana-nut mini loaves for Christmas gifts. Just wish I had a deep freeze! These make good gifts for sick people visitors helping them. mgrubbs (Marilyn)

This sounds "weird", but it's really good.

Make-Ahead Scrambled Eggs for a Crowd

Eggs
Add-ins: Red peppers, Onions, Ham, etc.
1 T 7up per every 2 eggs

Just scramble it all together, put them in an oven-safe dish, and put them in the oven on "warm" until ready to serve.
The 7Up keeps the eggs from getting hard; but more importantly, it keeps them staying yellow instead of turning green when making a lot.

Sausage Egg Bake

2 Packages Regular Jimmy Dean Sausage (or spicy, if you like that)
2 Cups Grated Cheddar Cheese
1 Can Mushrooms
3 Cups Seasoned Croutons
6 Eggs, Beaten
2½ Cups Milk
1 Can Cream of Mushroom Soup

1. Butter a 9 x 13 glass dish and pour croutons in the bottom.
2. Brown sausage and place on top of croutons.
3. Mix milk, eggs and cheese. Pour over top. Mix ¼ cup milk with cream of mushroom soup and mushrooms and pour on top.
4. Refridgerate overnight before baking.
5. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 – 60 minutes.
A GREAT make-ahead dish!

Honestly, if you want quick, easy and variety in the morning, get a package of single serve cereals and offer some muffins or bagels, fresh fruit and yoghurt as well. You really don't have to get up early to put something in the oven. As long as the coffee/tea is hot and plentiful, there should be no complaints.

And if there are, just direct them to the nearest Dennys!!

I had to make the lemon coffee cake this morning, and I must report that my husband loves it. I suggested we give some to the neighbors since it was huge for just the two of us, and he said he didn't want to give any of it away! (What a little piggy he is sometimes! I think I'll cut it and individually wrap it for the freezer so we can get out what we want when we want.)

I need to comment that she has two listings of vanilla and none of the baking soda mentioned in the instructions, so I think the second is really meant to be baking soda. (the 1/2 tsp) That's the way I made it , and it turned out okay.
