My girls request this as their special birthday food! I also make it every Christmas morning. This time I made it with the hash brown patties that you can put in the toaster, as the bottom layer. I toasted them up a bit and made a single layer in the bottom of the casserole dish, breaking up to fill in spaces. Turned out great and save cleaning up a frying pan!

I actually made this for a dinner.

I used half a pound pork sausage instead of the bacon. It was awesome! All my kids loved it! My 4 year old, who I usually have to force feed asked for seconds. This is definitely a new fave.

This was printed in Taste of Home eons ago when my mother subsribed to it. I have made it many times and even my picky son loves it. I have also substituted a pound of sausage for the bacon.

Yes shell, I have done it both ways. It is wonderful! Four men for a breakfast and it came home gone! Everyone asks for this recipe!

Has anyone tried this dish by preparing it the night before and then cooking in the am?
