Breakfast Casserole

A large family rarely can afford those quick grab & go breakfast sandwiches or toaster meals. Still when we were a smaller family we did like them from time to time. But once we out grew them I came up with my own version that has become a timeless classic for our family.

This dish is super simple and completely versatile.

There are 2 main parts to this dish. The egg base and the bread base.

First, the Egg Base:
Scramble some eggs together. For our family this is about 12-18 eggs.
Add favorite extras - for example:
*sausage
*bacon
*cheese
*green pepper
*red pepper
*onion
*ham
*turkey
*broccoli

Mix whatever you want together and then put into a 9x13 baking dish.
Add a layer of your favorite cheese and then top with 1 package of cressant rolls, unrolled flat on top of eggs.

Bake at 350ยบ until golden brown and serve!

Yep, it's that simple!

The fun part of this breakfast is there is no need for toast and for some reason the cressant rolls add to the fullness of the meal so the dish lasts longer than regular eggs.
