Christmas Success

So part of my problem is that I now take pictures with my phone and I haven't quite figured out how to get those on my computer yet.  Kinda lame I know.  Anyway Christmas this year was a success.  It was a Zank family Christmas and it's always different having a Christmas with other people and other traditions.  I was in charge of breakfast for everyone, which was like 14 adults and 6 children...give or take.  It was kinda intimidating.  I made things typical for my family's Christmas and luckily Stephen's family liked it too!  I love trying new recipes but I am always nervous with how they will turn out.  I would rather get new recipes from people I know so I can be guaranteed they will turn out...so I am giving the recipes I used so if you need any breakfast ideas here are some to choose from.

First up is the Breakfast Casserole:

 
Looks pretty good.  I made two batches of this one and it's so easy because you make it the night before, and then pop it in the oven in the morning.  I like the above picture best, but I found the recipe here.  (I left out the mushrooms)

Next up I made Caramel Monkey Bread:
This one is sooo good, and super easy too.  And it's another overnighter...perfect!  I found the recipes here.

While the Breakfast Casserole was in the oven, I put this one together


So freakin' good!  I had never made this before and I was a little nervous that it wouldn't be great.  It.Was.Amazing.  I found this recipe here.  I don't think I can rave about it enough!  Yum!
