Cheese, Egg, & Potato Casserole image

Something I dashed off tonight for dinner. I'm still working on the details to fine-tune this recipe, especially since I don't exactly remember how I made it tonight. As time goes by, I'll edit the recipe to correct some of the errors that are almost certainly here. Feel free to post your own thoughts and concerning and personal modifications to this very basic recipe.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/4 cup vegetable oil
7 -8 potatoes, grated and squeezed of excess liquid
12 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
16 ounces colby-monterey jack cheese (tasty possibilities) or 16 ounces mozzarella cheese (tasty possibilities)
sliced black olives (optional)
bacon (crumbled) (optional)
diced ham (optional)
sliced smoked sausage (optional)
bulk pork sausage (optional)
bell pepper (optional)
sliced mushrooms (optional)
white onions, optional (optional) or red onion (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet at medium-high heat.
  • Add the potatoes and use your spatula to make sure the potatoes are fairly evenly coated with oil.
  • Lightly grease a 13 X 9 baking pan.
  • Let the potatoes cook about 5-7 minutes. Check the bottom. If the bottom of the potatoes is brown, turn the potatoes. Leave the potatoes to cook another 5-7 minutes, and then recheck them. Make sure you keep the turning to a minimum.
  • Beat the 12 eggs in a large bowl. Add the milk, salt, and pepper and beat together.
  • When the potatoes have been thoroughly cooked, remove them from the pan and arrange them evenly on the bottom of the 13 X 9 baking pan.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the top.
  • Add any of the optional ingredients.
  • Cover with the cheese.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

This casserole is a great make-ahead dish. You can make it the night before, and then just pop it in the oven in the morning. It's a great way to save time on busy weeknights.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover cheese. I always have a block of cheese in my fridge, and this is a great way to use it up before it goes bad.

This casserole is a great way to sneak some vegetables into your kids' diet. My kids love it, and they don't even realize they're eating potatoes and spinach.

I'm a big fan of breakfast casseroles, and this one is one of my favorites. It's easy to make, and it's always a hit with my family. I usually serve it with a side of fruit or yogurt.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used tofu instead of eggs in this casserole. It turned out great! The tofu added a nice protein boost, and the casserole was still very flavorful.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. I added some chopped ham and bell pepper to mine, and it was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.
