Breakfast for dinner! Cinnamon Pecan Crescents and Ham and Swiss Breakfast Cups

Cinnamon Pecan Crescents
1 roll of refrigerated crescent rolls
butter at room temp
2 T brown sugar
1 tsp of white granulated sugar
1 tsp of  cinnamon
2 T chopped pecans

This is SO simple!
Mix brown sugar, white sugar, and cinnamon and set aside.
 Unroll each crescent roll and spread a little butter across the whole thing.
Then put about a tsp of sugar mixture on there and sprinkle a little pecans and roll em up.
Place on a cookie sheet and bake till golden brown at 350 degrees.
Simple and these are fantastic!!

BREAKFAST CUPS

6 slices of bread with crust trimmed off
butter
6 eggs
6 slices of cheese ( I like swiss)
6 deli cut thin slices of ham ( i usually get a little black forest ham from the deli)
salt and pepper
Muffin pan ( i have a stone muffin pan that this works fantastic in!)

Take your trimmed bread and flatten it the best you can. Spread a little butter all over the slice and form it very gently into the muffin cup. Do this for all 6 slices of bread and then bake theses cups in the oven at 350 till toasted lightly. pull from oven and then place in each cup a slice of cheese and slice of ham (do not try to put too much. sometimes i can only fit 1/2 piece of cheese and just a small shaving of ham). Then you are going to crack and egg into each cup very gently. sprinkle each cup with a little salt and fresh cracked pepper and place the cups into the oven @ 350 degrees and let bake about 10 min....longer if you like your eggs really set. Pull from oven when eggs are set to your desired level. use a fork to go around the edge the gently lift the cups from the muffin pans!

These are both great finger food breakfast that both of my kids LOVE!! Sorry I didn't have a picture to post for these but my kids ate them so fast I didn't even get a chance to take one!!!
