Out of my desire to provide a protein-filled breakfast to guests and my family who was quickly growing from twin boys + one, I needed a quick make-ahead breakfast recipe. I found a few breakfast casserole recipes in my search and made them simpler and revised it so you can change them up depending upon the guests you may have. If you need a vegetarian casserole or have sausage on hand instead of bacon it's super simple to omit & replace with different ingredients that are sure to please! I make 2 kinds at the same time so everyone can pick their favorite! Ingredients:
24 ounces frozen hash brown potatoes |
10 eggs |
1 cup milk |
8 ounces bacon or 8 ounces sausage |
8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese |
1 tablespoon onion powder |
1/2 tablespoon garlic powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. Cut bacon up in small pieces (or break sausage up) cook in pan, drain on paper towel & set aside.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
3. Grease 9x13 casserole dish.
4. Place a layer of potatoes on the bottom of the dish and sprinkle with salt, pepper, onion powder, & garlic powder. Add rest of the potatoes and repeat sprinkling - Adjust amounts of seasoning to taste.
5. Place bacon (or sausage)**, and cheese on top of potatoes.
6. In a mixing bowl whisk eggs together, add milk and whisk until incorporated. Pour evenly over top of layers.
7. Bake uncovered for about 1 1/2 hours or more - until liquid is gone.
8. **To make a Veggie Version I omit the bacon (or sausage) & add:.
9. Chopped Onion.
10. Chopped Red Pepper.
11. Chopped Mushrooms.
12. Make it ahead and cut into squares to place into zip lock bags to freeze.
13. For a quick breakfast microwave & Enjoy!
