Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons butter
One 5-inch-wide piece of country ham
Honey, for brushing
3 thick pieces breakfast sausage
3 thick slices bacon
2 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Crispy Bits Breakfast Potatoes, recipe follows
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds red potatoes
1/4 cup olive oil
4 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • In a large nonstick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium-high heat. Brush the ham lightly with honey, then fry it until the texture is firm, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet.
  • Next, fry the sausage and bacon together. The sausage is ready when browned nicely, about 3 minutes per side; the bacon is cooked when crisp, 7 to 10 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet. Pour out the excess grease but do not wipe out the skillet.
  • Add the second tablespoon of butter to the skillet and heat until melted. Crack the eggs into the skillet and fry for 2 minutes, sprinkling on some salt and pepper. Flip the eggs and cook them for another 45 seconds.
  • Serve the eggs, sausage, bacon and ham on a platter, plus a pile of Crispy Bits Breakfast Potatoes.
  • Bring salted water to a boil in a medium pot. Add the potatoes and boil until nearly fork-tender (but not falling apart), about 15 minutes. Drain and allow to dry thoroughly, then cut into wedges.
  • Heat the olive oil with the butter over medium-high heat in a skillet. Add the potatoes, sprinkle on some salt and pepper and pan-fry until golden brown and crisp, 10 to 15 minutes.

FARMER'S CASSEROLE

This wonderful casserole is the best 'breakfast casserole' I have ever eaten. It could easily be served at any time of day. I first ate it at a Wedding Shower and could hardly wait for the bride's mother to get the recipe for me from the Aunt who lived in another state. I am posting the recipe exactly as I received it...however I would personally increase the salt to 1 teaspoon instead of the 1/4th teaspoon since I remember adding salt when I ate it before.

FARMER'S BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

I try to send the girls out the door with a good breakfast in the morning and this can be altered to be lower in fat and cholesterol by the use of skimmed evaporated milk and egg beaters. Results still excellent! I use turkey bacon instead of ham, although it is great with ham too. Pat Ensenbach submitted this recipe for the St. John's Lutheran Church and Preschool Cookbook, Yankton South Dakota. Serving size indicates 8-10 servings but that is if you cut it evenly before serving. If people help themselves, you may have more or less servings depending on how much they take! Please note there is a refridgeration time (several hours to overnight)

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 casserole, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups frozen hash brown potatoes
3/4 cup shredded monterey jack cheese
1 cup cooked ham, diced
1/3 cup chopped green onion (I don't use)
4 eggs
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt (optional)

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in an 8 inch square baking dish ( I used a 10 inches skillet with good results) which has been wiped down with shortening or sprayed with Pam. Potatoes will thaw over night in the fridge.
  • Sprinkle dish with cheese, ham and onions.
  • In a separate bowl, beate eggs, evaporated milk, pepper and salt together.
  • Pour into baking dish over the potato mixture.
  • Cover and refridgerate for several hours or overnight.
  • Remove from refridgerator 30 minutes before baking.
  • Bake, uncovered, at 350* for 55-60 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables: The more vegetables you use, the more flavorful and nutritious your casserole will be. Some good options include bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, spinach, and kale.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different cheeses: Cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan are all popular choices, but you can also try using feta, goat cheese, or Gruyère.
  • Make sure the eggs and milk are well-beaten: This will help to create a smooth and creamy casserole.
  • Season the casserole well: Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good options. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Bake the casserole until it is set in the center: This usually takes about 30-35 minutes.
  • Let the casserole cool slightly before serving: This will help to prevent it from falling apart.

Conclusion:

A farmer's breakfast casserole is a hearty and delicious way to start your day. It is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With so many different variations to choose from, there is sure to be a recipe that everyone will enjoy. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy breakfast or brunch recipe, give farmer's breakfast casserole a try. You won't be disappointed!
