HASH BROWN BRUNCH CASSEROLE



Hash Brown Brunch Casserole image

I got this from cooks.com. I didn't see one like this on here. I made this for our new years eve breakfast and hubby and i both loved it! It was so easy to make and i loved that i made it last night and just poped it in the oven in the morning while i was making the pancakes. The only thing I would do different is to add some hot pepper sauce to the mix(it was a little bland for our taste. I would also maybe add some mushrooms. enjoy!

OVERNIGHT BREAKFAST/BRUNCH CASSEROLE



Overnight Breakfast/Brunch Casserole image

This is different than your average breakfast casserole. It is so yummy and easy to put together. You can easily make this into a light dish by substituting egg beaters and light cheese. I've made it both ways and both are equally good! Also, if you cut the recipe in half, use 2 whole eggs and 1 egg white. If you're a vegetarian, this is also good without bacon!

CRESCENT CRUST SAUSAGE BRUNCH CASSEROLE



Crescent Crust Sausage Brunch Casserole image

I guarantee you are going to *love* this! This makes a perfect brunch or weeknight dinner, to save time brown the sausage a day ahead. To increase to a 13x9-inch casserole you will need 1-1/2 packages of crescent rolls and all other ingredients will need to be increased slightly, I have even made this without the crescent roll crust!

FARMER'S BRUNCH CASSEROLE



Farmer's Brunch Casserole image

I have been making this recipe for about 12 years. I used to make it for brunch but now I serve it for dinner as well. It is loved by all we have served it too. It's great to serve with fresh fruits and "Recipe#126982". If using frozen, defrost first. I have used other cheeses but I find this Monterey Pepper Jack (w/ jalapenos) to work best., cheddar is too bland. NOTE & UPDATE 8/08: I grated red potatoes and the casserole turned out too wet and slimy. UGH. I would suggest purchasing the "Simply Potatoes" or using a potato that bakes up drier. Hope this makes sense.
