Welcome To Recipes From the Heart

The old adage 'necessity is the mother of invention' was certainly true as I raised my children. When they were preschool age, my husband's company conducted a reduction of work force resulting in the loss of our only income. Have you ever read a recipe and had all the ingredients except one? Everyone has. So what do you do? Go to the store and buy the ingredient? That wasn't an option during those lean years. I learned to recreate recipes and create my own. I learned to enjoy opening the pantry and putting things together to make a new dish. I have kept the dishes through the years and still use them today. This site will feature my tweaked recipes and some I created on my own. Each of my adult books include recipes. I would love to know how you tweak my recipes for your family's taste or the supplies in your pantry.

Breakfast Sandwich

View detailsRecipe for breakfast sandwich.


My husband loves sausage and eggs.  He also loves onion.  One day I had only a small amount of pan sausage--probably one patty.  My husband is a bigger eater and I knew better than to put one sausage in front of him.  I decided to make a breakfast sandwich.  Here are the instructions.


Chop 1/2 small onion and saute it in a skillet.
Add the pan sausage to the onion, browning both the sausage and onion.
Add two beaten eggs to the skillet.
When the eggs are scrambled, place the entire mixture on toasted buns.

My husband loved it and requested it for the next three days in a row.  I got tired of cooking the same thing every morning, so I increased the ingredients as follows:
1 medium onion
1/4 lb. sausage
6 eggs

I refrigerated the leftovers and microwaved enough for one sandwich each morning.  Be careful not to cook the scrambled eggs too hard so they don't dry out in the microwave.
