Easy Egg and Potato Breakfast Casserole

Category: Peppers, Potatoes, Eggs, Breakfast

 Ingredients List

  • 6 ounces Potatoes O”™Brien (half of a 12 ounce bag, about 1 1/2 cups), thawed
  • 8 eggs
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. pepper
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese

 Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter the bottom and sides of an 8×8 baking dish. Poor the thawed potatoes into the buttered dish. In a medium bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, and salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the eggs. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top of the casserole. Bake, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes until the center is set. Allow the dish to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes:
This is a great recipe to add things to. Add cooked bacon, sausage, or ham to the dish before the cheese for a meatier meal. Add cooked chopped spinach to the egg mixture for more veggies and color. Add more cheese or part cheddar and part pepper jack to the top. This is really the bare-bones recipe that is just begging for you to add whatever you have in the fridge. A little garlic powder and green onions in the egg mixture really spruces things up, too.
I just leave the potatoes on the counter for the afternoon to thaw them. I”™m sure the microwave would work too. I”™ve tried it with frozen potatoes and the texture is not as pleasing.
