FARMER’S CASSEROLE

Reviews From Allrecipes.com
Absolutely Delicious! A great breakfast casserole to serve for overnight guests that will keep you with them and out of the kitchen! I took the advice of others and used Ore-Ida Potatoes O’Brien. I used one extra egg and 2% evaporated milk. I used cheddar cheese vs. pepper jack. For people who complained that this was not “spicy” enough, it’s a breakfast casserole it’s not supposed to be filled with a bunch of spices unless you want heartburn all day. This is a great recipe because of its versatility. You can substitute another breakfast meat for the ham or put some in addition, add veggies such as chopped fresh tomatoes or mushrooms. You could also change the pepper jack cheese to whatever cheese blend you prefer. It’s up to you. I would suggest making the recipe once first then play around with it. It’s definitely a keeper! I served it with fresh fruit, toast, and bagels.
