Overnight Breakfast/Brunch Casserole image

This is different than your average breakfast casserole. It is so yummy and easy to put together. You can easily make this into a light dish by substituting egg beaters and light cheese. I've made it both ways and both are equally good! Also, if you cut the recipe in half, use 2 whole eggs and 1 egg white. If you're a vegetarian, this is also good without bacon!

This casserole was easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought biscuit mix for the topping, which made it even easier.

I'm not usually a fan of breakfast casseroles, but this one changed my mind. The combination of flavors and textures is amazing. I especially love the crispy hash brown topping.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover ham. I added some diced bell peppers and onions to the filling for extra flavor. It turned out perfectly and was a big hit with my family.

I made this casserole for a brunch party and it was a huge success! Everyone loved it, especially the cheesy hash brown topping. I'll definitely be making this again.

This casserole was a hit with my family! It was easy to make and so delicious that I've made it twice already. I love that it can be prepped the night before and baked in the morning, making it perfect for busy weekmornings.
