Bayou Bend Brunch Casserole image

This recipe is froma local Junior Forum cookbook called "Buffet on the Bayou". I like it because you make it the day ahead and just pop it in the oven the day you want to serve it. Very easy to make.

This recipe is slightly different that the other recipe that is posted for Blend of the Bayou. Here in Louisiana there are several versions of this dish. This is the one that is served at a local restaurant in their plate lunches on Friday. This dish freezes well and everyone I've served it to really enjoys it.

My sister-in-law shared this recipe with me when I first moved to Louisiana. It's been handed down in my husband's family for generations. It's quick to prepare, nutritious and beautiful. I've passed it on to my children, too. -Ruby Williams, Bogalusa, Louisiana
