I cook the bacon and chop up the vegetables for this hearty casserole the night before, so it only takes a few minutes to finish in the morning. When we have overnight guests, I serve it for breakfast along with blueberry muffins. My family also thinks it's good for dinner. -Diann Sivley, Signal Mountain, Iowa Ingredients:
3/4 to 1 pound sliced bacon |
6 cups frozen shredded hash brown potatoes |
1 small onion, chopped |
1 medium green pepper, chopped |
1 jar (4-1/2 ounces) sliced mushrooms, drained |
3 tablespoons butter |
6 eggs |
1/4 cup milk |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon dried basil |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. Place bacon on a microwave-safe plate lined with paper towels. Cover with another paper towel; microwave on high for 5-7 minutes or until crisp. Cool; crumble and set aside. 2.
