Breakfast Casserole

I will be posting different breakfast recipes all week...hopefully you can find something to make Christmas morning! This recipe is the one I had on my guest post yesterday on "Or So She Says." If you didn't see my post on traditions there, go check it out! 


This is not your normal soggy bread breakfast casserole...if you know me at all, I HATE soggy bread! We make this breakfast casserole every Christmas. Ok and maybe a few other times a year. It is a tradition that we have adopted from my husbands Grandma.

You will love this one!

Ingredients:
12 slices of bread

8 oz of grated cheese

1/2 pound of your favorite meat (sausage or ham)

Veggies (mushrooms, onions, peppers)

8-10 Eggs

Salt and Pepper

Butter

Directions: Butter all slices of bread. Place 6 slices of bread, buttered side down in a 9 x 13 pan. Then top with grated cheese, meat and veggies. Then place the other 6 slices of bread, buttered side up on the top. Beat 8-10 eggs in a bowl, with salt and pepper. Pour the eggs over the whole casserole...make sure to get all the bread covered with eggs. Cover the pan in foil and refrigerate over night. Bake at 350 for 1 1/2 hours (30 of which is without the foil). 

Tip: We make two different kids...one with chedder cheese, ham and sometimes we add onions. And then on the other one we use pepper jack cheese, breakfast sausage and peppers. Feel free to experiment!
