My favorite, go-to recipe for brunch! Excellent taste, filling comfort food!
Oh my good golly gosh. My 6 year old nephew is a very picky eater and he destroyed this casserole. I have not made anything from this site that wasn’t fabulous. Thank you again Lauren.
This is the best breakfast casserole I have ever had. This recipe is a keeper. I followed it to a T. Mine took 1 hour and 15 minutes to cook. I made it Christmas morning for 10 people and it got rave reviews.
This recipe was delicious. I cut the recipe in half since was just for two people and it was amazing. I added a bit more red and green pepper than it required for halving the recipe and it was just simply delicious. I will make it again and placed in my favorite recipe file.
Can I use chorizo instead of pork sausage ?
Wow! I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out delicious! I was kind of nervous about making it for the first time for our Saturday service group but it turned out perfect! Everyone loved it!
Thank you for sharing this recipe!
I will definitely make this again and again!
Can you make these egg casseroles in muffin tins for individual portions? What’s the suggested cook time?
