Looking for something to give the kids for breakfast? Something that is hearty and fills the bill for nutritious and delicious? Well, I found it and all the “cooking” will be done while you are sleeping! Notice I put parenthesis on the word, “cooking” and that is because the refrigerator will do the job for you. This is a wholesome breakfast that you can serve cold or heat in the microwave to warm tummies during the upcoming colder months. Bon Appetit!
