Bios

Heather Thompson
As I grew up in a small town in Northwest Missouri, one of my favorite memories is of my Aunt Sally baking cinnamon rolls for friends and family around the holidays. Even when I was in college, Aunt Sally would surprise us and come cook for my friends and me. I looked forward to every visit because I knew there would be delicious food and sweet treats. Even though those visits are few and far between now, her kind, giving spirit gave me the desire to put great tasting, healthy meals on the tables of busy families.

Ali Richardson
Growing up in rural Nebraska, dinnertime was always family time in our household. Not a night went by that we didn't sit down as a family and talk about our day. Watching my mom in the kitchen everyday inspired me every bit as much as her gracious hospitality to family and friends on special occasions. Now that she is no longer with us, the values she instilled in me as a young girl have given me the desire to get families back around the dinner table enjoying each other's company.

A Gourmet Affair ...home cooked meals made easy! creatively inspired... conveniently delicious!

Stacy's Breakfast Sausage Casserole

This was a recipe that a friend of ours gave us and we used on our menu a few months back. It's perfect for what we were talking about on the show because it can all be prepped and frozen and then just popped in the oven for a special morning!

2 Cups Cooked Sausage (we use Jimmy Dean)
Refrigerated Pizza Dough (we use Pillsbury)
1 Cup Cheddar Cheese
1 Cup Mozzarella Cheese
1 1/2 Cups Egg
1/2 Cup Milk
1/4 Cup Red Bell Pepper
1/4 Cup Green Bell Pepper
3/4 tsp Oregano
1/4 tsp Pepper


First brown your sausage in a skillet over medium high heat breaking apart as you cook (2 cups is right about a pound of uncooked sausage.) Once browned drain grease and set aside for a moment. Spray a 9x13 pan with nonstick cooking spray such as PAM, unroll your pizza dough and press into the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle sausage over crust, sprinkle peppers over sasuage and then sprinkle on both cheeses. Gather a bowl and mix together the egg, milk, oregano and pepper, whisk well until incorporated. Pour egg mixture over casserole evenly. At this point you may cover the casserole and freeze until ready to bake if you wish. To bake casserole preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cover casserole with foil and bake for 40 minutes, remove foil and bake an additional 10-15 minutes or until cheese is golden brown and casserole is set throughout. If you freeze your casserole you may bake straight from frozen, just increase the cooking time by about 10-15 minutes. Enjoy!!
