Savory Sweet and Satisfying

This Hissy Fit Dip is all across the internet. If you google the name many different sites will pop up. The most common story behind the name of this dip is that it was served at a football party and a girl or as some sites say a southern belle, threw a "hissy fit" because she did not get any. I do not know how true this story is, but it does show how delicious this dip is.

All of my families favorite breakfast items in one delicious bowl, minus the pancakes and waffles that they love as well. Plus it has both sausage and bacon, so that makes both my daughter's happy. It is a rare day that they both agree on something. One prefers sausage and waffles while the other prefers pancakes and bacon. So having both breakfast meats in one bowl makes them and me happy.

The combination of roasted broccoli with quinoa, a homemade honey mustard dressing and sliced almonds for added crunch makes a delicious side dish. I loved everything about this dish.

When it comes to cooking one of the things I really dislike is when a recipe requires you to brown the chicken or cooking it completely before adding other ingredients and then cooking it in the oven. With this recipe there is no precooking the chicken, it cooks in the oven with the sauce. Then you add the other ingredients and cook it some more.

I have made quite a few overnight oat recipes since I first discovered them. I only make them in the summer time, because I like my oats cold when the weather is hot and my oats warm when the weather is cold. So I thought it would be helpful for me to have all of my overnight oats in one list so I can easily find and make them during the summer months. I hope you enjoy browsing all of the recipes in the list.
