Not yet dead

Our Daily Bread
I loved the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail when it was released.  It was British and odd and funny!  ha!  When they came up with the bright idea of making a Broadway musical out of the story line, there were many funny songs including one called "Not yet dead". [video]  What a hoot!

If it were up to Satan, we would all be dead, physically and spiritually, and joining him in everlasting torment.  We are NOT yet dead because of the sacrifice of our Lord and Savior.  Praise God!  We have eternal life through that sacrifice so we can live eternally with God!  Wow!  What a great deal!  ;-)  My prayer is that you will ask God to come into your heart if you haven't already done so.  Living life in Christ is the way life is supposed to be lived -- with God!

Lord, we are not dead yet thanks to your Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

Foodie Friday
Two parts of Foodie Friday this week: Louisville Favorites and a breakfast recipe.

Louisville Favorites
I drove to Louisville last Sunday for a day trip.  After attending a concert, I stopped to pick up some of my favorites on my way home.  Woohooo!  First, I bought two orders of fried green chili wontons with avocado sauce from the Bristol.  Second, I ordered a medium pizza from Wicks.  Wow!  Lastly I bought some desserts at Homemade Pie and Ice Cream.  Wow!  My waistline suffered but my mouth was very very happy!

Breakfast recipe
The choir at church is having a brunch in between services on Sunday.  I want to make something tasty and fun so I thought I would bring out my homemade breakfast casserole.  I will make some version of this.

Breakfast Casserole
9 slices of low cal/low carb whole wheat bread
8 egg whites
1/4 cup skim milk
1 cup sliced Johnsonville Farms chicken sausage (with chipotle seasonings and cheese)
1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, grated
1/2 cup pieces of red pepper (optional)
1 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
Spice to taste (I used garlic powder, cajun seasoning, seasoned salt, pepper)

Preheat oven to 350° and grease baking pan with your choice of oil or butter (I used Pam cooking spray). Place bread pieces in pan and distribute evenly. Beat the eggs, milk and any spices you desire (salt, pepper, garlic powder...) and pour over the bread. Add the remaining ingredients and bake for 25 minutes or until top is golden brown and a knife put in the center comes out clean. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
Serves: 10
Cooking Time: 30 Minutes
