I'm looking for a Breakfast Casserole Recipe? Does anyone have a good one?!
A hint, use oily chesses like parmesan or low quality chedar or swiss sparingly or you will have a greasy casserole. You cna put cheese inside but use sparingly. When using potaotes, I recommend you use pre-cooked frozen like hashbrowns or potatoes O'brien.
Answers: Breakfast casseroles can be very diverse. You can put any ingredient in that you like, but stay away from fruits and some veggies, like tomatoes because they have a lot of water in them. I see a lot of recipes with bread in them. This makes no sense to me. If you use potatoes, be sure to blanch or cook them in advance. I like to make frittatas or a baked omellette. It's like a quiche without the crust. Use a good heavy pan and start on the stove top. Mix 4-5 eggs and poutr into well greased pan over med heat. Start layering your ingredients liek potaotes, peppers, sausage, bacon, ham olives or whatever you like for breakfast. cover with a couple more beaten eggs and then pop into 350 degree oven until you see that the eggs on top are starting to turn golden brown. Shake the pan a little and see if the casserole shakes. If not top with cheese and bake 5 more minutes.

Here's one of my favorites that's easy and filling (especially after a nite of revelry!)
2 boxes Au Gratin Potatoes
1 lb platter bacon, peppered preferred, chopped
1 6 oz package of shredded cheddar and monterey jack cheese.
3 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup sour cream
Make au gratin potatos as directed adding sour cream and chopped green onion. Saute bacon and cut into pieces. Drain well. Bake potatos according to package directions and remove from oven. Top with bacon and cheese, cover until cheese has melted. This is good with hot sweet rolls and strong coffee!
Make this casserole the night before, then refrigerate and pop it in the oven in the morning.

This dish is great with salsa when serving.
This is one I make all the time and it is DELICIOUS! You can throw this together the night before and then cook it the next morning.
2 1/2 cups frozen shredded hash brown potatoes
3/4 cups shredded Monterey Jack
1 pkg. Knorr's Leek Soup mix
1 cup chopped fully cooked ham or Canadian bacon
1/4 cup sliced green onion
4 beaten eggs or 1 cup egg substitute
1 - 12 oz. can evaporated milk
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/8 tsp. salt
Crazy Jane salt or Mrs. Dash
Spray a 2-quart square baking dish with Pam. Arrange potatoes evenly in the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle cheese, ham, green onion over all. In a mixing bowl combine eggs, milk, pepper, salt, soup mix. Pour over mixture in baking dish. Sprinkle with Crazy Jane's salt and/or Mrs. Dash. Cover with foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. The next morning, bake uncovered at 350 for 1 hour until golden brown. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
The breakfast casserole with the bread is great. It's even better if you use those shredded hash browns on the bottom instead of the bread. The fresh hash browns in the dairy/egg section are the best, I think!
