Minions will be coming out on Blu-Ray/DVD next week, on December 8th. This movie was hugely popular earlier this year, and the release is the perfect time to plan fun themed family movie night. And these Minion Pancakes are the perfect meal for a family movie night!

Minions are adorable, and both kids and adults love them! I am sure Illumination Entertainment’s Minions movie will be a popular holiday present for kids of all ages. Right now you can pre-order the movie, so you have it for your family.

My family and I love to have themed family movie nights, because it is a great way to relax and bond on the weekends. Over Thanksgiving I mentioned that I was planning a Minion movie night with minion shaped pancakes, and my 10 year old nephew heard me and he thought this was the best idea ever, and I should do it right then and not wait for the movie. So I ended up making pancakes for my extended family during Thanksgiving weekend, with lots of help from my nephew.

I love brunch, because it is the perfect combination of meals. And what better time to serve brunch than on Mother’s Day?

I am always looking for something new and different for breakfast. I am also trying to eat more fruit, and this is a delicious way to do that. I made this Apple Cherry Bake for breakfast, and it was sweet and tasty.

It is kind of like a fruit crisp, only without the topping. It does take a while to bake, but I think it would work well in a slow cooker, so I am going to try that next time and start it before bedtime. It is a perfect brunch dish, and would go well with muffins or eggs to make a complete and tasty meal.

Today is National Guacamole Day!  I love avocados and guacamole, they are amazingly delicious. With football season started it is a great time to serve guacamole and chips as a half time snack, or serve tacos and burritos as an easy meal.  One of my favorite ways to have guacamole is with eggs and cheese, so I made a Guacamole Cheese Omelet for breakfast today, and have included the recipe below.
