When it comes to breakfast for my family, I don’t always have the time or energy to cook up a big meal for them, but I know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I can vouch for this because if I don’t have my breakfast, I tend to feel that my ‘wind’ escapes me really fast and I have no energy to do anything, let alone play with my kids. Jimmy Dean is here to help me out, as well as you – my readers.
I asked a few breakfast questions (how to feed my family on a short time schedule was my main question) to lifestyle expert Sissy Biggers, former Food Network show host and TV personality. I was so excited when I saw this video and I hope that you enjoy it as well!
A new survey conducted by Jimmy Dean shows that more than one quarter of Americans fail to eat a satisfying breakfast that keeps them satiated throughout the morning – leaving them feeling groggy, tired and distracted. On busy mornings, too many of us eat on the run, filling up with sugary cereals, carb-loaded breads and other foods that actually leave us tired and hungry before lunch.
I grew up with Jimmy Dean and to tell you a confession; Jimmy Dean is the only breakfast food that I will buy for my family now. I love their sausage and oh-my-gosh, the Breakfast Skillets are amazing and taste like homemade!
We are on the go a lot and one product that I tried and was very surprised of the taste (loved it!) was the Turkey Bacon Bowls. If you are short on time, these are prefect to heat up at home and eat, but if you are on the go, in your car (maybe you are heading to work and need something to go, but don’t want to stop and get something in a drive through) the Jimmy Dean D-Lights turkey sausage bagels are amazing!

The Jimmy Dean original sausages are a regular for my breakfasts. We buy them at Sam’s Club already made into patties, making it easy to just pull a couple from the freezer and cook them.

I;ve actually never tried Jimmy Dean. I don’t really get an opportunity to have a morning slump. I have 5 kids. the two in school have to be at school by 7:30 a.m. Getting them ready wakes up all the others including the baby. WIth a baby, toddler and preschooler at home its go go go!!
I love Jimmy Dean’s sausage roll which I use in stuffing.
I like the Jimmy Dean crossant sandwiches. Very filling and good. I will usually have a yogurt mid morning to help out the day.

I don’t currently use Jimmy Dean products but would love to give them a try. The breakfast bowls look interesting, especially the Bacon, Eggs, Potatoes and Cheddar Cheese. I avoid the morning slumps by grabbing a piece of fruit or a handful of granola to help pick me up. Thanks for this giveaway.

I like the Jimmy Dean light sausage, it’s part pork sausage, but also part turkey sausage. You really don’t taste the turkey at all.

@Lauralee Hensley, oh I forgot to mention how I avoid the slump, well I eat breakfast, but if I feel one once in awhile coming on I just grab a low fat yogurt, the kind that’s about 50 calories.
I make sure I get to eat a piece of fruit every morning to get me over that morning slump.
I’ll go for their bacon and sage sausage over the microwave breakfast stuff any day.
My jimmy Dean Sausage Flan makes a woman proud to feed her clan:
1 dozen eggs
8 oz. shredded cheese
1 roll JIMMY DEAN sausage
3 Tablespoons oatbran
Cook Sausage any way you like- I steam it. Beat eggs until frothy, add oatbran. Coat a large glass baking pan with nonstick spray, pour in egg mixture, add sausage, top evenly with shredded cheese: add a little parsleyflakes, pepper for garnish, bake 40-50 min. at 325 degrees. Makes 6 servings.
I like D Lights Turkey Sausage Egg White & Cheese Sandwich on a honey
Wheat Muffin.
I get out of my slump by brushing my teeth.
I have actually never tried Jimmy Dean, but I avoid the morning slump by washing my face with icy cold water in the morning – it always wakes me up!
I like to use their roll sausage (on pizza), bacon and fully cooked original sausage patties. Using these items plus fresh fruit helps to avoid the morning slump.
I love those jimmy dean breakfast sausage the spicy and also the sage I put the sage in my stuffing, yummy
