Ham and Cheese Strata

I had misplaced one of my favorite breakfast casserole recipes and recently found it on our long relaxing Christmas Break!  It was nice to be able to sleep in and have many brunches over the last two weeks....and I found my recipe I want to share.....This is an old PC recipe and it uses the 11in deep dish baker...I am sure you can figure out a dish to bake it in:)

8 slices of bread, cubed (or equivelant too...I often use french bread or hard rolls that are drying out)
1 cup of cubed ham
4 oz. of velvetta cheese, cubed
6 eggs
2 c milk
1 t onion flakes
1/2 t dry mustard
 1/2 t salt
4oz. Cheddar cheese, shredded
Paprika

*Make the night before*
Grease 11 inch deep dish baker.  Put in half bread cubes, then cheese cubes, and finally ham over bread and cheese.  Add remaining bread.
Combine eggs, milk, onion, and seasonings.  Pour over bread, ham and cheese.  Sprinkle with Cheddar and paprika.  Cover and refrigerate overnight.  Bake 45 min at 375, or until set.

Puppy Chow with a twist {Poppy Chow}

I love chocolate and peanut butter and saw a recipe on pinterest for Poppy Chow (Puppy Chow made with Popcorn).  So I wanted to make a variation of it.  I had no problem eating a bowl full:)

1 c. peanut butter
12 oz. chocolate (chips, bars, leftover easter bunny...etc....)
1 stick butter
1 bag of Seyferts puffed corn puffs
1lb of powdered sugar
Mini Marshmallows

Melt peanut butter chocolate and butter in a big bowl....I used the tupperware fix n mix bowl.  Stir in the corn puffs and make sure to coat all with choc. mixture.  Add powdered sugar and marshmallows....eat! and enjoy!
