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

Vanilla Pudding Mix

I would NEVER buy pudding at the grocery store because of all the nasty additives they put in the pudding. I have been making my own pudding mix for many years and could not imagine buying the store crap any further. There are lots of recipes that call for vanilla pudding and I enjoy using my own mix; where I know I can control the amount of stuff in it and what is in it.




You Will Need:

3/4 Cup Organic Cornstarch 
1 Cup Organic Sugar
2 Organic Vanilla Beans
3/4 Cup Dry Milk Powder (Bob's Red Mill)
1 tsp Salt



Mix all ingredients together, except the vanilla beans


I like to leave my beans whole, I will cut them open at the time I need them and I like adding an extra 1 tsp of vanilla extract 


Put the beans in the middle of the mix, in your mason jar, close and shake


**To Make: Mix 2 cups raw milk with 1/2 cup pudding mix in a medium sauce pan over high heat and whisk like a crazy person. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat stirring or whisking until thickened enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon (roughly 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and cool for 5 minutes before eating! Enjoy!!**
