OK, since I didn’t put a recipe in my “doater” the other day, and even if it is only required in a rant, this one is too good to not share. My friend shared this with me when we went to OR last month. She told me that she makes it when they go with their camping club, and everyone loves it. She started telling me the recipe, and I told her she had me until the Mountain Dew! But it was really good.

My Sister told me a story that concerns Mountain Dew…she lived in WV for several years and still has friends there, several of whom are teachers. One of them, Jane, told her that every day about 10am a boy would come up to her during class and tell her his stomach hurt and he needed to go to the nurse. She would send him down to the nurse’s office and he would get some crackers and a 7UP and lie down for a few minutes. Then he would be fine. This went on for a while, then the nurse told Jane that the boy was not sick, he was hungry. Apparently he was not eating breakfast. So the nurse called the boy’s Mother and told her what was going on and told her she needed to make sure he had breakfast before he came to school. A few days later the boy told Jane he was sick and needed to go to the nurse. Jane told him to sit down and wait a while, it was almost lunch time. The boy went home and told his Mother that teacher would not let him go to the nurse, she called the nurse and told her, “…and don’t tell me that it was because he had not had breakfast! I gave him a Little Debbie Zebra cake and a Mountain Dew this morning!”

Holy cow can you say sugar high crash??!! So I guess this recipe would make a great all in one breakfast for your kids!
