I doubled the recipe to use a 13×9 and let it bake a bit longer until the middle was set. Costco sells real bacon already crumbled in the bag so I dumped a bunch of that in a skillet and let it get hot. Probably about 2C. Then I put it in some paper towels and squeezed the grease out. What a timesaver!! Also – no bacon grease mess to clean up!! Came out beautiful!!
This was an easy recipe to make. However I don’t see how this could feed 8. I made it for my family of 5 and it was all gone. In the future I would add salt. I am not one who salts my food, but this definitely needed some. I also would cook the hash browns a bit bc in some parts of the casserole they were still hard and others they were cooked. So for next time, double the recipe, add salt, cook the hash browns.
I’ll let you know after i Tri it tomorrow
Made using some pineapple deli ham instead of bacon. Took other reviewer’s suggestions and browned the hash browns in a skillet first according to the package instructions, and layered the baking pan; hash browns, meat/onions/cheese, egg mixture as baked as directed. Very good. The hash browns needed to have the crispness precooking them provided.
Came out delicious, did pre-cook the hash browns on the stove a bit (use the bacon grease!) and that was it.
i made this ahead of time for a long weekend getaway. Our cabin didn’t have a cassarole, so I cooked it in an oiled skillet. Recipe made more than enough for two breakfasts. I also made this recipe, but substituted some black forest ham, cut into very thin strips.
Good recipe.
I made this egg bake for Christmas morning. It was very easy to put together but had absolutely no flavor, despite adding red pepper sauteed in the bacon grease, and salt and pepper.
Very easy to make as written and family loved it. My daughter suggested adding green chili next time to change things up.
I love the ingredients, however, it was pretty flavorless. Some added spices would have jazzed it up. I ended up dumping hot sauce on it to give it some pizzaz.
Didn’t have a problem at all; however, gotta get use to all those eggs & cheese— trying to lower my cholesterol. But it tastes delicious.
It was easy and everyone liked it.
It was absolutely delicious, wouldn’t change a thing! Everyone loved it.
I made it with and without bacon. Turned out eggmazing.
Turned out great. Next time I will add some salt
Turned out pretty good. My Son, who is a Cculinary Arts student said it was good, but I needed to have cooked the onions longer. I probably just needed to mince them in the chopper instead of chopping them by hand. I did add a little salt and pepper, even though it wasn’t in the recipe, so that the potatoes wouldn’t bee too fresh.
The recipe was easy to make. My family enjoyed it immensely. Great idea for Easter morning. Personally, I would like to add bell pepper to add to the flavor. It needs a little kick.
Amazing! We only had 4 eggs, so I shorted this recipe one egg and used all other ingredients as they’re called for in the recipe… This came out amazing! The whole family loved it!
I only had an 8×8 pan so that is what I used. It took 45 minutes to cook all the way through. I added a teaspoon of Everything But the Bagel seasoning (TJ’s). I mixed panko crumbs with the cheese sprinkled on the top at the end of the baking time for a little extra crunch. Loved it!
Easy and delicious!!! I made the recipe exactly as written, the only thing different is I used sausage instead of bacon because that is what I had. This a recipe that lends itself to any number of ingredients and I am already contemplating it as a quick and easy dinner!
I also sautéed the hash browns in butter, olive oil, garlic, and the green onions, before adding the egg and bacon mixture. It was great!
