Effortless Breakfast Casserole (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
2 to 3 cups of shredded cheddar cheese.
02 -
6 to 10 eggs, large size.
03 -
Two cups of milk.
04 -
Six slices stale bread, cut into cubes.
05 -
Add salt as you like.
06 -
Add some pepper to suit your taste.
07 -
Half a cup of chopped-up broccoli (optional).
08 -
One cup of ham chunks or cooked sausage (optional).
09 -
Quarter cup of thinly sliced green onions (optional).
10 -
Half a cup of thinly sliced mushrooms (optional).
11 -
A cup of corn kernels, if you'd like (optional).
12 -
Three pieces of bacon, cooked and crumbled (optional).
13 -
One teaspoon of Herbes de Provence if you have it (optional).
14 -
Cumin or curry powder, about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon (optional).
# Instructions:
01 -
Turn your oven on and set it to 350°F.
02 -
Crack the eggs into a big bowl and beat them. Stir in cheese and milk. Afterward, toss in the bread cubes and mix until everything's absorbed.
03 -
Mix in your favorite add-ins along with salt and pepper. If needed, break more eggs and add them to ensure everything gets covered.
04 -
Grease a 9x13-inch casserole pan with butter and pour the mixture inside.
05 -
Put the dish in the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes. The top should brown, and the middle should bounce back when you touch it.
06 -
Set it aside for 10 minutes to cool down before slicing and serving.
# Notes:
01 -
Adding more eggs creates a thicker texture.
02 -
Pre-cook mushrooms to dry them out.
03 -
Assemble this ahead; works great the next day.
04 -
Fresh bread? Dry it at 200°F for 10 minutes.
