My husband makes the best pancakes. But there’s no secret to what he does (at least not that he’ll tell me). He follows the directions on the side of the Bisquick box and then throws in a little love. They say breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day, and I find it’s also one of the easiest to make. Pancakes, bacon, eggs, toast, biscuits, fruit, etc. can all be on the table in a short period of time. So why go out? Make a big brunch at home using mixes, your microwave, the stove and not much else. I find breakfast is also a great time to host, because making things in large quantities are fairly simple. You can make it even easier by picking up some bakery fresh bagels, croissants and/or muffins to ease the prep time.
