Even though it’s the new year and it’s diet time, it’s also a long weekend and that usually means carby breakfast time. Usually everyone is home or comes over for breakfast and what better way to have everyone around the table than with some type of potato? Since I don’t eat carbs, or breakfast for that matter, that often when I do want some it’s potatoes – they are just so comforting. I hope you get to enjoy some good carbs with these vegan and gluten-free Breakfast Mushroom Gravy Scalloped Potatoes.

I’m not really a breakfast eater, even on weekends. I try really hard, and go through fazes when I may get some overnight oats done for the week, but usually I just snack on nuts or some apples. Nothing big or filling. But when I do want breakfast? Some type of potato happens .. and it’s usually fried, because who doesn’t like fried potatoes for breakfast? This time i wasn’t wanting to smelled like fried oil and I wanted some mushrooms. Best way to have both is in a scalloped potato dish, and make it for breakfast. Yum right? Just a simple and semi-fast scalloped potato because who wants to spend so much time in kitchen in the morning? Easiest way to speed up scalloped potatoes? Microwave those babies until fork tender!
