One of the ways I try to get ready for back to school, is to pre-plan our meals – both breakfast and dinner. It just makes life much easier when you’re getting back into the routine of things. I am not much of a morning person, so if I can make our mornings easier, I’m all for it! That’s why I LOVE our Sunrise Breakfast Bites that I shared not long ago. It’s also one of your favorite recipes, too! It’s shared a lot and gets a lot of views. It’s easy and yummy!
To add another layer to that recipe, I created these Bacon and Egg Breakfast Cups. They’re delicious and just as easy to make AND they have bacon in them. I mean, who doesn’t love bacon??!! I know that I do!
What’s great about this recipe is that you can use pre-made bacon like Hormel’s Realย Crumbled Bacon. HORMELยฎ brands make your meal preparation quick and easy.
Hormel’s Real Crumbled Bacon are real bacon pieces that is ready to be put in recipes or on top of dishes. It’s the perfect timesaver for busy mornings. That means you can spend more time together as a family getting ready for the day instead of preparing food. That’s a good thing! Even for this non-morning loving mom!
Family meals eaten at home have been proven to benefit the health and wellness of children and adolescents, to fight obesity, substance abuse and to make families stronger – creating a positive impact on our communities and our nation as a whole. That is even more motivation to spend time around the table together each day. September is the National Family Meals Month.
