Ham & Cheese Breakfast Casserole

Ten Minutes Prep & It’s Ready When You Wake Up!

Breakfast meals are a staple around here.  Hubby likes breakfast for breakfast…and lunch…and supper too.  But as much as we love breakfast dishes I don’t always want to make them when I’ve got one eye open and am barely moving.  That’s where this ham & cheese breakfast casserole comes in handy.  Not only is it quick and easy…this baby cooks overnight and is ready when you wake up OR when you get home from work.  A major score all around.

This particular casserole is made with ham BUT you can make it with any precooked meat you have on hand.  You can actually leave the meat out too if that’s a preference.  Canned meats will work too but generally aren’t as tasty…but they sure work in a pinch :)

Give this yumminess a shot.  Try your own combos…just about any meat, any veggie and any cheeses work!  Let us know what you think.
