Wedding Food

I have been slightly neglectful this month, but it has been a busy one! We are moving, so my life is a bit crazy. Last week I catered my first wedding. I loved every minute of it and can't wait to do another one!! I will post recipes soon....when I have some free time:)

red velvet and chocolate cake balls

mint brownies

pumpkin spice cupcakes (not the pretty batch)

mini cheesecakes

Breakfast Taquitos

I made these for breakfast last weekend and we loved them! They are easy and so good. They freeze great too.

Breakfast Taquitos

1 1/2 cups pepperjack cheese, shredded

1/4 cup roasted red pepper

1/4 cup green onions

Line a baking sheet with foil. Spray with cooking spray. Preheat oven to 425*. Whisk eggs, sour cream, salt and pepper. Cook eggs in skillet until slightly under cooked. Add the rest of the ingredients and fold gently until combined.

Warm the tortillas in microwave. Place about 1/4 cup of egg mixture in each tortilla and roll up, placing seam side down on baking sheet. Spray the rolled tortillas with cooking spray. Bake 15 minutes or until golden. Serve with dipping sauce (below).

Breakfast Sweet Rolls

This is one of our favorites!

Breakfast Sweet Rolls

16-18 frozen dinner rolls

1 (3oz) pkg regular butterscotch pudding (not instant)

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup pecans (optional)

1/2 cup butter, melted

The night before, place frozen rolls in a greased bundt pan. Sprinkle dry pudding mix over rolls, follows by sugar and nuts. Pour melted butter over all. Cover with a damp towel or tightly wrap with plastic wrap. Let rise overnight at room temp for 8-10 hours.

Preheat oven to 350*. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Allow to cool 5 minutes before inverting to a serving plate.

Pull apart and enjoy!!
