Brunch Egg Bake image

It wouldn't be Easter at our house without this dish on our brunch table. It's a favorite of mine -- not only because it's so delicious, but because most of it is put together the night before. Added note: The amount of cheee is correct in this recipe. I know it's a lot, but it's indeed correct.

Time 1h15m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 (4 1/2 ounce) jar sliced mushrooms, drained
1/3 cup sliced green onion
1/2 cup red bell pepper, chopped
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine, melted
8 ounces cooked ham, cut into julienne strips
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 3/4 cups milk (I use 1/2 milk and 1/2 fat free half and half)
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, snipped
8 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • In large bowl, lightly toss cheeses together.
  • Sprinkle half the cheese mixture in an ungreased 13x9 baking dish.
  • In a medium skillet, cook mushrooms, green onions and red pepper in butter/margarine until onions and pepper are tender.
  • Arrange vegetable mixture over cheese. Arrange ham strips over vegetables. Sprinkle remaining cheese over ham.*.
  • Heat oven to 350.
  • Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off.
  • In large bowl, using a wire whisk (or can use electric mixer), blend flour, milk, parsley and eggs.
  • Pour over layers in baking dish.
  • Bake at 350 for 35 to 45 minutes or until mixture is set and top is lightly browned (I find I have to bake mine at least 45 minutes).
  • Let stand about 10 minutes before cutting into squares.
  • *To make ahead, prepare to this point, cover and refrigerate.
