The test kitchen dramatically improved this hearty breakfast’s nutritional profile for Alice, but kept its core flavors and ingredients intact. The lightened-up dish still tastes decadent, but now it won’t load you up. Alice Hofmann - Sussex, Wisconsin

Very good, added mushrooms & used ham instead of bacon. Nice to be able to make ahead. A keeper for sure. I had trouble getting the shredded home fries so I bought the big ones and cut them up.

My husband gave this a thumbs up! I followed Zinna's suggestion of using fresh tomatoes and sausage, as I am not a fan of bacon and I used grape tomatoes, halved. Tomatoes work well with eggs. I mixed all the ingredients the night before and just put it in the pan the next day and baked it. Will definitely make again.

We've made this several times when we've had guests and everyone enjoys it. It can even be prepared the night before and popped into the oven in the morning.
