I found this casserole to be a bit too dry. I think I would add some more liquid next time.

This casserole was a little bland for my taste. I think I would add some more salt and pepper next time.

This casserole was a hit with my family! It was easy to make and so delicious. The ham and eggs were cooked perfectly, and the cheese was melted and gooey. I will definitely be making this again.
