    I. Am. So. Tired. I can barely see straight. Work started in earnest this week, I've got a little one with a nasty cough that keeps her up at night, and I have a soon-to-be kindergartener who has nightmares and enjoys freaking me out by lurking by my face at 2 am. There's lots of transitions happening in our family, too. C starts Kindergarten in a few days, B goes to the Fours room at daycare, and John just switched jobs and is having to be an A+ employee (boring!). I don't do well with change. It's just not my thing. But alas, change doesn't care about me and my feelings.

    So we'll all adjust. We've started packing lunches the night before again, bringing our clothes out of the hamper (it's never folded in the dresser like it should be) and laying out our outfits, and having plans for a solid, quick breakfast in the morning.

    egg and vegetable breakfast bake

    Hello, Healthy Egg and Vegetable Breakfast Bake. We're Going Back to School.

    You're my friend again. It's been awhile, but it's not you, it's me. I haven't needed you. I've had leisurely mornings waking up before my kids and making them whatever breakfast they requested before sauntering out the door singing "The Hills Are Alive." Now everything's changed. I'm not bitter at all.

    This Healthy Egg and Vegetable Bake is a saving grace though because it takes approximately 5 minutes of your time to cut whatever vegetables you'd like and lasts all week. I made this egg bake with cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, spinach, and mozzarella cheese. You could easily substitute asparagus from the night before, or use up the goat cheese you have in the fridge. This recipe is easily adaptable. It also stores really well in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Just stick a slice in the microwave for 30 seconds to warm up.

    Work smarter, not harder.

    I've written about this before, but meal planning is like an intriguing puzzle I can't stop working on. It gives me a little bit of a high trying to figure out what ingredients we already have on hand then buy the freshest, healthiest ingredients without buying the random ingredients I won't use again to make a yummy meal. Then there's the added challenge of being the most efficient with your time when you have it. How can I buy a bunch of broccoli, use that broccoli in different ways throughout the week so I don't get bored, AND only take out the cutting board once? See what I mean? That's my kind of puzzle.

    This Healthy Egg and Vegetable Breakfast Bake is something I make after I made these Easy Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas. I don't have to fuss sautéing onions because they're already cooked, and I can use the bell pepper in a new way that's totally different. Oh, and I cut everything one time. ONE TIME.
