Greek Breakfast Casserole image

This is a great dish for a Sunday brunch, or you can cut it into six pieces and freeze it to have as a quick and easy breakfast any day of the week. I also like to make it with broccoli, carrots, green onions, Canadian bacon and sharp cheddar cheese; the variations are nearly endless! -Lauri Knox, Pine, Colorado

I found that the casserole was a bit dry. I think I would add more milk or yogurt next time.

I'm not a huge fan of tomatoes, so I omitted them from the recipe. The casserole was still delicious.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover bread. I always have a few slices of bread that are about to go stale, and this is a perfect way to use them up.

I added some crumbled feta cheese to the top of the casserole before baking it. It gave it an extra burst of flavor.
