Happy Thursday, everyone!  Today I am going to share with you Family Tested Brunch Recipes.<\/p>\n

My family tested brunch for Christmas morning was a huge success and two family members said it was the best yet.<\/p>\n

These recipes are from other websites, so I did want to share them with you since they were wildly popular…and pretty easy.<\/p>\n

You already know that every year I make Ree’s PIONEER WOMAN MONKEY BREAD<\/strong><\/a>…and it is requested each and every year.<\/p>\n

Monkey Bread using three cans of biscuits must be very popular because the past two years, the stores have run out of the 8-count buttermilk biscuits.<\/p>\n

This year we used the Grands and only used two cans…it worked well.<\/p>\n

This wa brunch because we ate after gift opening.  I supplemented these recipes with scrambled eggs and bacon.<\/p>\n

Then, I decided to mix things up a bit…so here are the other family tested brunch recipes.<\/p>\n

FAMILY TESTED BRUNCH RECIPES: BLUEBERRY MUFFINS<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"tested<\/p>\n

These are so yummy…rich, buttery and sweet.<\/p>\n

This is Sally’s Baking Addiction Blueberry Muffins.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

If you wanted to cut down some on the sweetness, you could leave off the crumble topping and they would still be delish.<\/p>\n

FAMILY TESTED BRUNCH RECIPES: SPINACH QUICHE<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"tested<\/p>\n

This spinach quiche is delicious and the recipe makes two.<\/p>\n

It is so good, I will make it again for any occasion.<\/p>\n

But I did do a couple of small tweaks.<\/p>\n

\"tested<\/p>\n

I read this recipe on an Instagram page called Dinner in 321.<\/strong><\/p>\n

She calls it the BEST SPINACH AND BACON QUICHE<\/em>….it sounded easy and I liked the ingredients.<\/p>\n

But, sadly I cannot give you a link, because my security blocks it as a dangerous website….I take these warnings seriously.  <\/p>\n

When I followed the recipe I did so from Instagram on my phone.<\/p>\n

But, I did want to give her credit.<\/p>\n

So, I will share here and tell you what I did.<\/strong><\/p>\n

First, she recommended PIllsbury frozen pie shells…I haven’t used these in years, but they were very good and the recipe fills two pies. <\/p>\n

The chef says the second one is easy to freeze and eat later.<\/p>\n

Preheat the oven to 350.  <\/p>\n

I chopped 1\/2 cup of red onion and sprinkled in the bottom of both pie shells.<\/p>\n

Then I cooked two 10oz boxes of chopped spinach.  This must be drained really well, so I drained and pushed water out with a spoon, then put it in paper towels and squeezed water out.<\/p>\n

Then I sprinkled over the spinach, about a 1\/2 teaspoon of garlic salt.<\/p>\n

Spread the chopped spinach over the onion, dividing it between the two pies.<\/p>\n

I cooked a full package of Applewood Bacon until crispy…let it cool…and then chopped it into bits.<\/p>\n

Sprinkled the bacon of the spinach…she suggests using mushrooms if you do not want the bacon.<\/p>\n

\"tested<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Another warning…try not to be in a hurry when grating cheese or you will end up like this.<\/p>\n

I grated 8 oz of swiss cheese<\/em> and divided over the two pies.<\/p>\n

I was blessed to have a very special cheese and I believe that did make this quiche every better,<\/p>\n

We were given as a Christmas gift a box of cheese from MAYTAG DAIRY FARMS<\/strong><\/a>…the cheeses are incredible.<\/p>\n

\"tested<\/p>\n

Finally, in a separate bowl mix 8 large eggs, 2 3\/4 cups heavy whipping cream, and salt and pepper to taste.<\/p>\n

When I make this again for just me and Mr. B, I will add about a 1\/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper…it would be even better with a kick.<\/p>\n

Pour this mixture over the pies.<\/p>\n

Place on a cookie sheet and cook for 40 minutes at 350.<\/p>\n

It is a delicious recipe…my daughter complimented it all day long.<\/p>\n

\"tested<\/p>\n

I hope you had as much fun as we did yesterday!<\/p>\n

Thank you for all of the sweet Merry Christmas<\/em> messages…this audience is such a blessing.<\/p>\n

I decided I wanted to jump on and share the success of these recipes in case you were cooking this week or next.<\/p>\n

Let me know if you have any questions about FAMILY TESTED BRUNCH RECIPES.<\/strong><\/p>\n

And I will see you tomorrow…until then….<\/p>\n
