A hearty breakfast casserole made with food items that can help fight hunger!

cheesy breakfast casserole

Have you ever been hungry? Truly hungry? Not just “I skipped lunch and my tummy is growling” hungry?

I haven’t. I have been very blessed. A few years ago my husband and I were on a trip in South Africa and I saw some pretty eye opening poverty. I knew people did not always get enough to eat, and that there were homeless in the world and all of that. But I guess I have lived a sheltered life because I kind of just assumed that was in other places. Not here. Not in America. I just figured when people were hungry, they would find a way to get food. Food banks, neighbors, family, church groups, something.

I was wrong. There are plenty of people right here in America that do not have enough food. Sure they can go to a food bank, or church, or something, but someone has to donate the food to the food bank, and people have to have neighbors, family, and friends willing to help out. Today I want to share with you a way you can help! A way you can join the movement to fight hunger, and help feed those in need doing something you are probably already doing—shopping for food and posting on social media!

Making this recipe can help fight hunger! I am totally serious, and I am not just talking about your family’s hunger.

How You Can Help

Head to Walmart and Buy Food.

Walmart has partnered with some of your favorite food brands to help feed America. Between April 6th and May 3rd you can go to Walmart and buy specific foods, and for each participating item purchased money will be donated to help secure 1 meal* on behalf of local Feeding America Food Banks.

Find the list of participating products here. There are tons of options from Goldfish crackers to Ro*tel.

Share the movement on Social Media.

  • Round up your 6 friends, family or co-workers and share your smiles with Walmart.
  • Upload your photo to Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter
  • Use the hashtag #WeSparkChange
  • Make your photo “Public”
  • Walmart will donate to Feeding America for every post shared.

Donate at the Register.

From April 6 to May 3, you can give monetary donations of $1, $2, or $5 to your local Feeding America Food Bank at the register of any participating Walmart.

Head over to Walmart.com/FightHunger to watch the real time giving tracker!

breakfast casseroleTo make it even easier for you to help fight hunger I thought I would share a recipe you can make for your family that includes several of the participating products from the supplier partners: Unilever, General Mills, ConAgra, Campbell’s, Kellogg’s, and Kraft. It has Crescent Roll dough, Ro*Tel and Kraft Cheese.

This Cheesy Mexican Breakfast Casserole will not only help feed your family, but someone else’s! That is something I can feel good about!

      I am sorry the baking time was wrong for you. It is so hard as everyone's ovens vary so greatly. But I am glad you liked the final results.

      It is diced tomatoes with some seasoning and peppers. But if you can't find it you could use diced tomatoes and some diced peppers.
