Breakfast Pies
This was a really good recipe for breakfast!! I used one can of Texas bisquits and a regular sized cupcake pan (12 cupcakes) I used about 5 eggs. I'm a vegetarian so I made half of the pies with just cheese/egg/onion/green pepper and the other half I added in precooked ham from this weeks dinner. When making the crust I used about 3/4 of each individual biscuit dough inside the can. I pressed it out in each cup, letting the sides go about halfway up the cup so that it wouldn't overexpand on me in the oven. I sprinkled in onion/ppr, used a 1/4 c measuring cup to pour egg into each pie and then sprinkled with shredded cheese. I put the oven a little less than 400 degrees and checked on the food every so often. I did have a little runover from the pies with ham in them, but i found that if I waited for the egg to harden up a bit, I could push it with a spantula back towards the pie. I had forgotten to spray the pan but it ended up not mattering because the pies just popped out of the tray. I swear my kitchen smelled like McDonalds but without the heart attack factor. Next time I will limit the amount of dough on the bottom of the pie because once cooked it took over about 3/4 of the pie.

Easy OREO Truffles
OH MY GOSHHH!! These are so awesome--and easy!! Lately, I've been fixated on making cake balls (per Bakerella book Cake Pops) but they take hours to make. These truffles, in my opinion, taste just as good and are whole heck of a less hassle! I crushed (food processor) up one entire package of reduced fat Oreos and then bought 2 packages of Reeses PB Cups (the ones that come in packages of 6 and are usually on sale for $1). I crushed up the cups and oreos and mixed them together (saving some oreo crumbs for topping later) making pb cup oreo balls. I ended up not needing to refrigerate/freeze them because the balls had a good consistency. We have an old wire with the octagon base that we used to use to dye easter eggs, but now I use it to put the balls into chocolate bark and take back out again. Really useful. Anyways, I bought red chocolate bark and after all the dipping and everything, sprinkled with leftover oreo...they looked really good with a red/black thing going on! : ) Refrigerated them until time to serve---they're better cold!.

BBQ Chicken Salad
I'm a verrrrry picky vegetarian and I was trying to find a main dish to cook for me and my parents that we could both enjoy. I'm so glad I found this! It's a salad with very few ingredients, so whatever I didn't think I'd like, I could change and it had meat so there was protein and was more filling. I made this as a salad, used 1 can of corn and almost an entire bag of romaine lettuce. I cut up the red onion but didn't use too much because I'm not a fan. I forgot to buy a pepper so that never made it in. I got the cheapest Lite Mayo Kroger had to offer and used the Jack Daniel's BBQ sauce we had at home. As for the chicken, I bought Morning Star's grilled chicken. For some reason I put them in the George Forman which made them kind of crunchy yet tough---so I would suggest being way smarter than me and just microwaving them. As suggested, I added store bought tortilla strips and those reallly made the salad. The only thing I didn't like was how overwhelming the bbq sauce was---it was good, but I lost some of the other flavors in it.
