Bacon and Eggs Casserole
Meet the Cook: Because it requires so little time to prepare and is such a great hit with men and children, this is a favorite of mine to make for brunches. Served with a green or fruit salad, hot muffins and croissants, it's excellent for an after-church Easter brunch. (At Christmas, I sprinkle on red and green peppers!)
My husband and I have two grown children and two grandchildren.
