The Hot Breakfast Challenge continues at the Happy House. Last week we enjoyed pancakes, French toast, eggs, oatmeal, and cinnamon rolls. A hot breakfast does not have to be fancy, eggs with a slice of whole wheat toast and some fresh fruit is a delicious and healthy alternative to preservative laden pre-packaged breakfast products.
Last week I purchased Heavenly Homemakers Breakfast Cookbook to find more recipes for this challenge. This week Laura from Heavenly Homemakers has offered to give one away to you! This cookbook is filled with great recipes, pictures and ideas for a healthy breakfast.

Hi, I just discovered your blog and find it really fun and helpful. Just made your breakfast muffins yesterday for Sunday morning breakfast with blueberries. We enjoyed them, thanks! I have also tried your Pink Pasta and Chicken Mexican Skillet.
The e-book sounds great! I am always looking for new ideas.
Thanks. Tonja

This sounds great. I am always looking for more meal inspiration.

Breakfast seems to be difficult for me to not get into a rut. This would be great!
[Reply]
Breakfast food is not my favorite food of the day, so I’m a little weak in this area. I need to get it together quick because baby #4 is due in the next 3 weeks. Thanks for the great ideas.
[Reply]
This giveaway sounds great. I need help in the breakfast department!!

I’ve made another batch of those great muffins from your site last week. They are great for a on-the-go breakfast. I’d love to get more ideas from this breakfast cookbook!
[Reply]
Your menu for this week sounds wonderful! Very healthy and very yummy! I’m particularly intrigued by the Turkey Tacos…
Today, I had my first hot breakfast for the challenge & it was wonderful – thank you for all your wonderful ideas!
[Reply]
Your ebook would be very helpful to me!
[Reply]
This would be a wonderful book to win. My husband takes care of breakfast on the weekend but I have such a hard time during the week. I am trying though, last week I made muffins and eggs and hashbrowns!
[Reply]
We had your sloppy joes for dinner and they were AWESOME! Made SO much, too, that we have a lot for leftovers!
I’m going to start participating in the Menu Plan Mondays, simply because we go shopping Tuesday, and planning is half the battle. Getting it done and out of the way a day early will help
[Reply]
oooo this would be great. Lunchs are leftovers & I’m good w/ dinner but unless its grits, eggs. or eggos I’m done w/ breakfast.
[Reply]
I could always use ideas for breakfast! Thank you!
[Reply]
I heart cookbooks!!
[Reply]
Thanks so much for offering this! I’m stuck in the cereal rut.
[Reply]
I’m not sure why, but I have a problem with coming up with anything out of the norm for breakfast! Cool giveaway! Thanks!
[Reply]
! I get a lot of inspiration for meal planning from your site- THANK YOU!
[Reply]
1. You may have convinced me to try the month of meals idea. I’m so frustrated with this family of mine and their menu problems … maybe not having to do it every month would help … I don’t know.
2. I am happy to report, however, that Operation Eat All The Cereal is commencing nicely. I managed to have breakfast 4 or 5 days this week, and a handful of the others here joined in. Now … to dig out a new box of shredded wheat …
[Reply]
I’m always up for a new cookbook! And I’m also trying to get new ideas out there for breakfast! Thanks!!!
[Reply]
Oh, I stink at breakfast… my poor husband.
And I’m going to have to try to the Bee Rocks… sounds yummmm.
[Reply]
Only my youngest and I usually eat breakfast around here. Although my hubby sometimes has oatmeal at work. I like to serve breakfast for dinner!
[Reply]
Would love to win. I have one child not willing to try much, so looking for new stuff to interest her. Thanks.
[Reply]
Breakfast is my favorite meal. Would love some new ideas! Thanks!

[Reply]
Oh – I love breakfast! It’s my favorite meal!
[Reply]
Love your site! Breakfast is the fave meal of choice around here.. we even have it for dinner sometimes!1
[Reply]
Oh, I definitely need some breakfast ideas. We usually eat either cold cereal and milk, or oatmeal. We crave variety!
Also, I wanted to let you know that I’ve bookmarked both your salmon turnover recipe and your sloppy joe recipe. The whole household is excited to try them.
[Reply]
This would be great for me since I’m expecting my first baby in June!
[Reply]
I never think to add breakfast to my menu plan every week. I could really use some ideas for breakfast because my brain can’t go past cereal and waffles!
[Reply]
I need help with breakfast!
[Reply]
I would love a copy of the cookbook.
[Reply]
Sounds like a great little book-and nothings better than a yummy hot breakfast!!!
