Since having my baby in March, I’ve had a steady stream of adoring grandparents, aunts, and uncles staying at my house. So, in addition to feeding my immediate family, I’ve been cooking for crowds on the regular. It was a little stressful at first, but my new favorite kitchen hack — sheep pan breakfast recipes — has made things easy. Because the last thing I want to do is spend my precious someone-else-is-holding-the-baby time scrubbing pots and pans.

Here in the south, biscuits dominate breakfast. And while I can’t deny myself a flaky carb-filled treat all of the time, I’ve taken to eating eggs on a bed of kale on occasion too. I know, sacrilege! But I feel so much better starting my day this way, which is why I was instantly drawn to this 15-Minute Kale and Egg Bake at Healthy Nibbles and Bits. If you’re imagining dry, rough kale, think again. After massaging it in olive oil, baking it, and adding goat cheese (mmm), the kale is tender and delicious. Maybe even something the kids will like.
Oh, man. This Sheet Pan Full Breakfast with Garlic Butter Mushrooms at Cafe Delites looks crazy delicious. Plus, it takes a mere 5 minutes to prep and is on the table in 20. I’m hanging on to this one for the big holiday breakfasts coming up.
