Way back in May, 2008, when I started this blog, this was the first recipe I posted ~ without a picture ~ so I thought a do-over was called for.
This is really my favorite breakfast casserole and I served it at my recent EB Pink Party. It’s the recipe I usually make for holiday breakfasts since it can be put together for the most part the night before. It’s also very easy to add or subtract ingredients and make it your very own. I never put in the tomatoes and I have made it with ham, bacon and sausage. All three are good but I like ham the best.
When I make for a holiday breakfast, I usually make a fruit salad and some kind of sweet rolls or coffeecake ~ very easy and delicious!
I think I found this recipe on a B&B website but I’ve been using it for so long I don’t remember for sure.
