I’m so excited to introduce you all to Heather from Heathers French Press, she’s a member of our Creative Team and this is her first time sharing with us! I’ve loved getting to know her a little better through her blog 🙂
NOW I can’t wait to see this delicious recipe Heather has for us…
Breakfast is my family’s favorite meal.
During the week I like to keep it pretty simple because we’re all rushing to get out the door on time.
The weekends are different.
I’m definitely NOT what you would call a morning person,
but I LOVE making breakfast.
Because this week Charlie’s math class is celebrating Pi day,
I thought it might be fun to have pie for breakfast.
Not the dessert variety;
although, Stella and I have been know to eat berry pie for breakfast.
This is a breakfast pie,
and the best part is that you can add almost anything.
I added a few leftover bell pepper strips, onion, ham, and cheese,
but the possibilities are endless.
{It’s a great way to clean out that veggie bin}
Breakfast Pie
Ingredients
- 1- 9 inch pie crust {I use Trader Joe's variety, but you can use your favorite recipe}
- 8 eggs
- 1/2 cup of sliced bell peppers and onions
- 4 slices of ham diced
- 1/4 cup of shredded cheese {I used cheddar}
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- preheat the oven to 350
- saute the peppers and onion until they become soft
- roll out the pie crust and place in the bottom of a lightly greased pie pan
- add the sauteed veggies, diced ham, and cheese
- whisk the eggs and season with salt and pepper
- pour over the filling
- bake for 25 - 30 minutes until the crust begins to brown and the eggs are set in the middle
While I don’t enjoy losing an hour of sleep, this was worth getting up for:)
Enjoy!
We love breakfast quiches and fritatta’s so Heather’s Breakfast Pie will for sure be on our menu soon!

I love meeting new people and making new friends… It’s actually become one of my favorite parts about blogging! I didn’t realize all the wonderful people I’d have a chance to meet and get to know from all over the country.
I’m super happy that Heather is on our Creative Team and totally look forward to hearing from her again next month.
Happy Sunday. AND Happy St. Patrick’s Day too! I hope you’ve had a fabulous weekend so far 🙂
