Pancakes, waffles, egg, and cheese dishes are easy to make, use ingredients you most likely have on hand, and taste wonderful too. Plus, kids love the novelty of eating breakfast foods in the evening.
You can even make many of these recipes ahead of time. Pancakes and waffles freeze well. It's easy to reheat waffles in the toaster or toaster oven, and pancakes thaw and reheat well in the microwave oven. You can also use your crockpot for egg dishes that cook all day and are ready for you when you get home.
