Cheesy Sausage Jalapeno Popper Empanadas

Cheesy Sausage Jalapeno Popper Empanadas

Cheesy Sausage Jalapeno Popper Empanadas are the perfect portable Brinner. This simple recipe is a fusion of your favorite appetizer (jalapeno poppers) in a fun empanada. It is stuffed with 2 ooey gooey melty cheeses, jalapenos and sausage!

We are so excited to be partnering with our friends at Jones Dairy Farm to bring you a scrumptious breakfast or brunch recipe perfect for the holidays with family and friends, starring one of my favorite ingredients: Fully Cooked Chicken Sausage Patties!!! My freezer is loaded with these sausage patties, and I love to add these to my breakfast, but when I am thinking about Brinner (breakfast for dinner), these are absolutely perfect to make quick work of prep.

These Cheesy Sausage Jalapeno Popper Empanadas start with frozen puff pastry and fully cooked chicken sausage (yes that simple). The puff pastry is rolled out and loaded up with your favorite jalapeno popper fixings (cheese, sausage, and jalapeno). Then you fold it over and crimp the edges to seal the empanadas and bake it in the oven.

I fell in love with creating recipes that I stuff different ingredients into dough or pastry. Much like the Cheesy Bacon and Eggs Breakfast Bombs that everyone goes nuts over. This is truly an extension of that love. And you are going to love love love these!

They are perfect for breakfast, lunch or Brinner. Brinner is my favorite meal, and I can remember as far back as 6 or 7-years-old when my mom would tell me that we were having breakfast for dinner I would flip with excitement. Brinner. Breakfast for dinner. YES! I am still a huge fan, and my daughter who is now 7-years-old has the same excitement as I do. Between the two of us, it's a wonder that we will ever eat a regular dinner again. Brinner rules!

I will let you all know that you can pick up Jones Dairy Farm products at your local retailer. The company’s products are distributed nationwide, so be sure to check out their product locator so see where you can pick some up. If you’re looking for the breakfast sausage, it’s in the freezer section!

Enjoy!

With love from our Simple Kitchen to yours.

SERVES 8 | ACTIVE TIME 15 Min |TOTAL TIME 35 Min

8 ounces cream cheese, softened

1 (5-ounce) package Jones Dairy Farm Fully Cooked Chicken Sausage Patties, diced
1 medium jalapeno, diced

1 large egg, beaten
1 package of puff pastry (2 sheets)
8 ounces Colby Jack cheese, shredded
kosher salt, for sprinkling
cilantro, chopped

Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with non-stick spray. Set aside.

In a medium bowl combine cream cheese, sausage, and diced jalapeno. Mix until well combined. Set aside. In a small bowl combine 1 egg and a tablespoon of water. Whisk until well combined. Set aside.

Lay 1 sheet of puff pastry on a floured counter top and gently roll it out to about 8 by 8 inches. Use a 4-inch cookie cutter or bowl to cut the pastry into 4-inch rounds. Place the rounds on the baking sheet. Repeat with the second sheet.

Add a scoop of sausage and cheese mixture to the center of the puff pastry and top with Colby Jack cheese, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Pull the sides together to create a half circle and press the edges together to seal, pushing in any escapees that are on the edges.

Use two fingers to create a ruffle crimp around the edges or use a fork to crimp closed. Brush the tops of the empanadas with egg wash and sprinkle with salt.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro.

We are so excited to be partnering with our friends at Jones Dairy Farm to bring you a scrumptious breakfast or brunch recipe perfect for the holidays with family and friends, starring one of my favorite ingredients: Sausage Links!!!

Most mornings around here start with their Jones Dairy Farm fully cooked breakfast links. I especially love their chicken sausage links for my quick and easy make ahead breakfast. I make up a weeks worth of scrambled eggs with sausage and cheese in little bowls that I can quickly heat up and eat. I know I have mentioned that I am not much of a morning person. I mean I want to be, but I am pretty much a zombie in the morning.

That is where easy breakfasts come in. I know you all loved Cheesy Bacon and Egg Breakfast Bombs so much. So I decided to share another scrumptious breakfast bombs creation with you. Being it's National Frozen Food Month and all, my shortcut using frozen dinner rolls work out perfect here. If you prefer homemade though you can check out the Jalapeno Popper Cheesy Pretzel Bombs and use the dough recipe from that one.



Being I always have Jones Dairy Farm All Natural Fully Cooked Sausage in my freezer, I figured what could be an easier breakfast that to make a scrumptious Garlic Parmesan Cheesy Sausage Bomb?

They start with frozen dinner rolls (yes that simple). The bread roll is rolled out and stuffed with huge chunks of mozzarella cheese and scrumptious bite-size pieces of sausage! Then you wrap it up like a little package, top it with garlic butter and Parmesan cheese and bake it in the oven (or pop it in the fridge until morning). And you can customize these to make them whatever you like. They are your favorite breakfast items rolled into one scrumptious, portable taste sensation!

What kind of taste sensations are you creating at home? Jones Dairy Farm is once again hosting their annual Rise, Sizzle & Shine Recipe Contest and the prizes are bigger and better than ever with a $5,000 Grand Prize! You can get all of the details here. I can't wait to see what you all come up with.

Starting the day with an amazing breakfast inspired by our traditional cheesy bombs is the perfect way to get the day going! Ready in 30 minutes, you can't hardly beat that. Tender poppers stuffed with ooey gooey mozzarella cheese and scrumptious bites of sausage. I love them dipped in marinara but they are so good, they don't need anything at all.

Overnight Cheesy Breakfast Casserole

Overnight Cheesy Breakfast Casserole

This amazingly simple casserole recipe starts with a scrumptious layer of left over buttery biscuits, it's filled with my favorite breakfast components and ends with a generous amount of ooey gooey cheese. It is a complete breakfast. Just add coffee or orange juice.

Breakfast casseroles have been a long time favorite in our house.  I love to make it the night before and just pop it in the oven that morning.  These come in extra handy on special occasion days; like Easter, Christmas, Mothers/Fathers Day.  Pretty much every morning that I don't want to spend a lot of time in the morning preparing food, a breakfast casserole comes in handy.

This casserole combined my favorite flavors and left over biscuits.  You know in a bread loving family there are bound to be biscuits laying around.  If you don't have biscuits, feel free to substitute Italian bread.

Layers of buttery biscuits, sausage, ham, red peppers and cheese (cheese and more cheese) come together with fluffy eggs to create the best ever overnight cheesy casserole.  Perfect for everyday and every holiday.  It doesn't get much better than that!

A spin on the classic all-America breakfast casserole frees up your morning by letting the crockpot do all the work for you. Simply toss the ingredients in the slow cooker and wake up to a piping hot crowd pleasing breakfast.

We are so excited to be partnering with our friends at Jones Dairy Farm to bring you a scrumptious brunch recipe perfect for Easter Brunch, starring one of my favorite ingredients.


Nothing says 'holiday' like starting the day with a special breakfast. Whether it is Easter, Christmas, Father's Day or a birthday I love starting the day off a spectacular meal. As I have shared many times, I am not much of a morning person. Which kind of throws a wrench in my plans.

Although I have finally gotten a morning routine down so that I get up at 5AM each day. Yay me! That said, I still only cook hot breakfast on the weekends after I have had a chance to have a few cups of coffee.

Enter the time-saving holiday (and every day) meal plan. Slow Cooker Overnight Breakfast Casserole.  I love being able to make a casserole overnight while I sleep. I mean does it really get much better than that?


It does! How about a meal filled with 'real ingredients' that you mix together and then go to bed. You wake up to a scrumptious hot breakfast waiting for you. Even the one convenience ingredient in this recipe, fully cooked Chicken Sausage from Jones Dairy Farm, is all natural with no nitrates or nitrites, no MSG and no preservatives. Ok wait for it.... And it tastes amazing!

With sausage loaded with that much flavor I knew we needed this amazing Overnight Slow Cooker Breakfast Casserole to be bursting with bold flavors. It all starts with hash browns and an Italian flavor explosion in every decadent bite! Slow cooked sun-dried tomatoes, fresh basil, mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese come together overnight to create a divine breakfast casserole that is impressive enough for a holiday brunch by simple enough for every day breakfast.

Truly a flavor explosion in every bite! Our family and friends have devouring this recipe and I can't stop eating it, myself. Looks like I know what's for Easter breakfast!

And I am sure I will get a ton of emails so, I will let you all know that you can pick up Jones Dairy Farm Breakfast Sausage in the freezer section at your retailer, nationwide or check out their locator.

Enjoy!

With love from our simple kitchen to yours.

SERVES 8 | ACTIVE TIME 20 Min | TOTAL TIME 6 Hours 20 Min

12 large eggs
1 cup heavy cream (or half and half)
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 (20 ounce) bag refrigerated hash browns

8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
4 ounces shredded Parmesan cheese, divided

Spray a slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. I used a 6 quart crockpot. Set aside.

In a medium bowl or 4 cup measuring cup combine eggs and cream. Whisk until well combined. Sprinkle spices (onion powder, salt and both peppers) over egg mixture while whisking. Whisk until completely combined. Set aside.

In slow cooker, combine all of the hash browns and about 1/2 of each of the remaining ingredients (Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, sliced sausage links, sun-dried tomatoes and basil). Using fingers, gently toss hash brown mixture until combined. Pour egg mixture over casserole. If necessary use a spatula to smooth out the top.

Set aside about 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese (approximately 2 ounces). Sprinkle the remaining reserved ingredients over the top of the casserole. Cover the slow cooker and cook for 6-8 hours on low or until a thermometer inserted into the center of the casserole reads 160°F. Once the center of the casserole is cooked through, it is done.

Sprinkle casserole with remaining cheese, serve and enjoy!

Crockpot Shredded Chicken

Crockpot Shredded Chicken

Crockpot shredded chicken is the perfect make ahead recipe. It will give you tons of possibilities and its prepared in the slow cooked with very little work. This recipe makes quick dinners so amazingly easy.

 

Things just seem to get busier and busier no matter how hard I try and busy leads to not having 30 minutes to cook dinner or time to shop for ingredients. That lands us in a drive thru. I didn't realize how much we were having fast food until we looked over our statements. It was like every other day for 2 weeks.

That is when I decided I had to take more time to pull together some make ahead items. So that way, on those insanely busy days I could still manage dinner and feel good about it.  I have made this make ahead crockpot shredded chicken recipe 3 times in the last month and I have to tell you it has come in handy so many times, I can't even count.


This Saturday we spent all afternoon and evening at the park. Munchkin and her friends were riding mini ATV's, Chad was flying his drone and playing frisbee with the guys and I was taking in some mommy time and holding down the fort while I got in some great conversation with friends.

Before we knew it, we couldn't see 5 feet in front of us and it was almost 8 o'clock.  So, we headed home and unloaded the crew. I had a hungry group on my hands and nothing planned for dinner. I reached in the fridge and pulled out a container of shredded chicken and whipped up some of the best sandwiches we have ever had.

Try These Tasty Ideas:

• Serve shredded chicken on a sandwich with cheese. Add to a pasta salad or a vegetable salad for an easy dinner.
• Toss shredded chicken with barbecue sauce for a quick and easy BBQ shredded chicken sandwiches.
• Add to Simple Italian Style Mac and Cheese for a fabulous hot dinner in 20 minutes.
