So.
I agreed to take part in an event that was celebrating all things tea. And I enjoy tea...but usually black with a little sugar in winter, or iced with lemon and sugar in summer. And frankly, orange pekoe is about as exciting as we get in my purchasing around here.
But despite the fact that I am not a tea snob, I do know what a good cuppa tastes like. Each year for Christmas, one of the gifts that I buy my mother is the Little Black Tea Collection from Steeped, which includes the most wonderful Earl Grey known as Earl Grey de la Creme. And it is. Smoky, creamy and with the most delicious finish. It's a great tea.
Earl Grey tea is tea flavoured with oil of bergamot. It is used to flavour baked goods, sauces and chocolates. When I looked for a recipe featuring tea, I started at the Steeped website. I saw this, and was sold.

#SecretRecipeClub: Cinnamon Roll Muffins
So.
It's time for another edition of Group A's reveal for the Secret Recipe Club! Actually, it's a rather sad occasion as this will be the final reveal day for Group A. Sarah E has decided to send us out on a high note, and the club will be folding. I've had almost 3 wonderful years searching other blogs for a recipe to make and share. It's been exciting to see what people think worth sharing from my own little corner of the internet. I'll need to find a new challenge.
So, this time when I went looking for my last recipe with the club, I decided I had to stick with what I do best - breakfast carbs.
My monthly email sent me off to peruse Sights, Bits and Bites. Marla is relatively new to the kitchen, and says she works in the smallest kitchen known to mankind. I also did that until recently. She loves cats, but currently has a boyfriend and a pet hamster. I don't think I recommend having the hamster and cats simultaneously, but cats are a lovely way to pass the time.
While looking through Marla's recipes, I came across a few things to consider: Freezer Breakfast Burritos looked easy and yummy, as did Lasagna Soup, which needs to make an appearance on my Sunday night supper table (and in my lunch) soon. But carbs as always screamed my name. Like my last reveal, this recipe is somewhat of a portion controlled one. But no matter. Once can always eat 2.
