Breakfast Pizza

This is one of my favorite breakfast to make ever but it is time consuming for sure. However, if you are smart, unlike me, you can make and cook the pizza crust the day before and have it ready for the next morning, then all you have to do is make your eggs, bulldog gravy (this is what my granny calls it), bacon and sausage. But it is what it is.. Making the dough fresh is one of my favorite things to smell and do. It is super easy when you have a good quality bread machine ( Amazon store front ). Bulldog gravy is something my granny made all the time for us, it was a treat of course due to it mainly being bacon grease, flour and milk. 😂 Start with cooking your bacon, use that for the gravy.  Bulldog Gravy: 1/4-1/2 Cup Bacon Grease 1/4 Cup Flour Milk (I just pour until its not thick then thicken it) Salt & Pepper, to taste -Place grease in sauce pot, warm up. Add flour and cook off for 1-2 mins be sure to whisk often. Now, pour milk, I usually just add enough milk to thin out the

Better Than Wendy's Frosty

Growing up I have had my fair share of Wendy's Frosty's and lets' all be completely honest here, you know you all did too! It was something that was cold, cheap, and satisfied a craving for a short time period. Daniel and his mother, Gloria, are completely obsessed with these Frosty's. I figured it was time to try to make these myself because I do not like the idea of not knowing what is in the Frosty's from Wendy's (they sure as hell are not gonna disclose that information). I recall back when I was 18 years old working at Wendy's having to refill the Frosty machine. I thought it was chocolate milk, that froze into a frosty like shake; but boy I was wrong! Groooosssss!! Kristopher and Kailee have had a frosty once or twice their whole life's. When I brought up the idea of making these homemade, Kailee asked me "is it like the dog's frosty's?" Honestly, I could not help but laugh so hard I almost peed myself! That girl cracks me up!! Onward with the recipe!


You Will Need: (4 servings or in my case enough for just Daniel haha -_-)

1. 4 Cups Organic Alden Ice Cream (Vanilla Bean)
2. 2/3 Cup Organic Raw Milk (Hartzler Dairy Farm)
3. 10 tsp Organic Hot Chocolate Powder (Silly Cow Farm Brand- Whole Foods Sells It)
      - The flavor powder I got is Udderly Milk Chocolate

All you need to do is throw all the ingredients into the blender, and blend (using pulse or just blend) until smooth; you may need to turn off the blender and stir; I have a crappy blender still (no Blendtec or Vitamix for me still -_-) so I had to do this. Once it starts to blend, it is beautiful and creamy!


Absolutely amazing! Hands down the best!


Tops Wendy's by far!!!
