Every month our Sunday School class hosts a Breakfast Sunday. Each couple brings a breakfast dish, and we enjoy a time of fellowship while we eat.
My typical dish is a hearty breakfast casserole consisting of layers: bread, mixture of sausage with onions and peppers, whisked eggs and half and half, and topped with cheddar cheese. Yum!
Though I make this dish every month, I always check before adding the half and half to see if 8 fluid oz. is 1 cup or 2. Why I cannot remember this conversion is beyond me, but I go to my trusty glass measuring cup to check.
If, like me, your memory lapses regarding volume conversions, then posting this volume conversion chart by Chasing Delicious near our recipes will get the correct amounts in our dishes when our memory fails us:
In addition to the volume conversion, Chasing Delicious also lists mass and volume equivalents and temperature conversions. I will add these lists to the fantastic list of ingredient substitutions and keep them close when I cook in the kitchen.
With this volume conversion chart nearby, I will just refer to it when making the hearty breakfast casserole. As you cook and bake to feed your family, I hope these conversion charts and lists assist you in using time wisely. Happy creating!
Question: What conversion do you easily forget and need to look up?

thanks for this Tracy! i am amazed at how many times i have to go to the computer to ‘search’ on different measurements to find the conversion… this will make it much easier – have the perfect spot for it! 🙂

Great! I’m so glad this is useful to you. I know I will keep this close as well. I just can’t believe that I cannot remember that 8 fluid oz. is 1 cup. Though I can tell you that now, I will need this conversion chart at the end of the month. I’m too young to be losing it. 😉
