All About "breakfast"
Turkey Maple Sausage
Ground turkey from the supermarket makes a healthy and delicious alternative to fat-laden pork sausages. Try these stuffed into a buttermilk biscuit or alongside some fluffy pancakes. These sausages are so flavorful and moist you won't miss the calories at all. Make sure to prepare the sausage mixture the night before so they are ready to cook in the morning.
Read MoreGranola Bars
My kids take these granola bars to school for snack, and they doubtless experience an, "I can't believe it's not cookies" feeling of righteous swindlery. The fact that the bars are packed with whole grains and nuts, seeds and dried fruits, means that they're an excellent source of energy and nutrients, despite the sweet, greasy facts of butter and honey. This is my version of an excellent Ina Garten recipe -- she's the Barefoot Contessa, and I really love her no-nonsense style of cooking and eating.

Wrapped up in a nice jar and tied with a ribbon, homemade granola is a gift anyone would enjoy. Get Alison Needham's great recipe here.

Read MoreBaked Brunch Eggs
Make ahead meals are a must during the busy holiday season. My mom understood that well when she started making this egg dish for Christmas morning many years ago. It gets lots of flavor from the addition of sautéed red bell peppers and mushrooms, and it's cheesy enough so that children love it as much as grownups do.
Read MoreFruit and Grain Bars
Fruit and grain bars are great for snacks, but they can be quite pricey. At 15 cents per bar, this homemade version is a substantial savings over the store-bought kind.
Read MoreCamp Muesli
This is a favorite camping breakfast, but it's also a favorite school-morning breakfast, but usually only when we're out of granola. There is a fresh-tasting chewiness to soaked oats that is lacking from traditional cooked oatmeal, which I am alone in my family in loving. I confess that sometimes I stir a spoonful of wheat germ and flax seed meal into our soaked oats, because that's how I am.
Read MoreBreakfast Burritos
Restaurants charge way too much for simple breakfast burritos, especially when you learn how easy and cheap it is to make a batch of them for your whole family. They're great for weekend mornings, or for wrapping to go as everyone is rushing out the door
