For Father’s Day, people sent me a bunch of great recipes that readers can consider whipping up for dad in lieu of taking him out to eat and spending a fortune at a restaurant.
Why not start dad’s day with breakfast in bed? Need a recipe or can’t decide what unique or non-traditional thing to whip up for dear old dad? Don’t worry. Check out this old Mode post I dug out the past with 40 Breakfast recipes.

From the folks at Finlandia Cheese, there is this yummy recipe for Bistro Swiss Cheese Pizza with Sausage.
Spicy sausage and sweet cherry tomatoes are paired with our creamy, nutty Swiss Cheese and baked to crispy perfection. Served with a lightly dressed salad, this is a deliciously easy weeknight meal. INGREDIENTS 1 (8 ounces) pkg mild or hot Italian sausage 1 large prepared pizza crust 1 cup Finlandia Swiss cheese, shredded Chopped Cherry tomatoes 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon pepper INSTRUCTIONS Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Slice sausage into small thin slices. Cook until browned; drain, approximately 10 minutes. Sprinkle dough with shredded cheese, spread sausage evenly on dough. Top with cherry tomatoes and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 25 minutes. Yum!
They also offered up a recipe for making Brisket Grilled Cheese. INGREDIENTS 2 tablespoons Finlandia butter* 1 clove garlic, minced, crushed or chopped fine 2 slices sour dough bread enough thinly sliced & heated brisket to cover one piece of the bread – don’t skimp but you also don’t want too much 2 slices Finlandia* cheddar cheese 2 slices Finlandia* jack cheese 1 tablespoon horseradish sauce – the mayo kind, not the grainy ‘prepared’ kind DIRECTIONS Put butter and garlic in a small bowl – mix well On one slice of bread, spread the horseradish sauce, add 2 slices of cheese, then the heated brisket, then the other slices of cheese, then top with last slice of bread Spread half the butter/garlic mixture on the bread and cook in a hot non-stick pan until golden brown Butter top side, flip and continue cooking until the bottom is golden as well Eat – but not too quickly even though you’ll want to *Finlandia butter is available at select COSTCO locations and other fine retailers.
