Introduction


This is a great breakfast casserole that reheats really well. You can make it on the weekend and enjoy it throughout the week for breakfast when you may not have as much time to cook. It’s also very filling due to the higher fat content. We actually had this for dinner tonight. It’s easy to make, inexpensive, and plentiful. In fact, if you are cooking for just a few people, you may want to cut the recipe in half.
