I like to add a little bit of chopped ham or bacon to the filling for extra flavor.

This was a great make-ahead breakfast. I made it the night before and just popped it in the oven in the morning. It was perfect!

I made this for a brunch party and it was a huge success! Everyone loved it. The only change I made was to add some chopped bacon to the filling. It added a nice smoky flavor.
