Egg Bacon and Potato Breakfast Bake – This easy breakfast casserole is overflowing with eggs, cheese, bacon, and hash browns. And it can be easily made the night before too!
For our family breakfast during weekends are important. I usually try to prepare something special, since it’s the only chance we have to sit at the table, with a little (not much) time, to share.
This past weekend I prepared this new egg, bacon and potato bake casserole recipe and it was a BIG success!!!
Everyone loved it. The combination of potatoes, the creaminess of the cheese and the crunchy vegetables make this dish a true delight. The best part? It does not have to be only for weekends, because you can make it at night, refrigerate and have it ready for baking early in the morning. It takes a good 40 minutes, or so, to be done so plan ahead.
