Cheesy Breakfast Egg Casserole
Ingredients:
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
- 1 cup diced cooked ham, sausage, or bacon
- 1 cup diced bell peppers (any color)
- 1 cup diced onions
- 1 cup frozen hash browns or diced potatoes (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tsp garlic powder (optional)
- 1 tsp dried oregano or Italian seasoning (optional)
- Cooking spray or butter for greasing
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
- Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, and oregano. Mix well.
- Combine Ingredients: Stir in the shredded cheese, cooked meat, bell peppers, onions, and hash browns (if using). Mix until everything is well combined.
- Pour into Baking Dish: Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- Bake: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is set in the center and the top is golden brown. You can test for doneness by inserting a knife; it should come out clean.
- Serve: Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into squares. Serve warm.
Tips:
- Feel free to customize the ingredients based on your preferences—try adding spinach, mushrooms, or different cheeses.
- This casserole can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator; just reheat it in the oven or microwave before serving.
