There's nothing nicer than a delicious egg dish you can prepare the night before so you're not "scrambling" when guests arrive. With satisfying ingredients like ham and a creamy cheese sauce, this dish is really special. -Mary Anne McWhirter, Pearland, Texas

Used cheddar cheese instead of American, sauteed fresh mushrooms instead of canned and omitted the bread crumb topping (my kids don't like). Simple but tasty breakfast dish!

I will give this recipe a second chance with some changes. This was the first time I made it, instead of canned mushrooms, I saute fresh sliced mushroom other than that I followed the recipe. Next I will add some fresh herbs and increase the bake time to 40 to 45 minutes.

I've made this twice now and it is very good. It took 45-50 minutes to bake.

This is very good. I made it for Christmas morning brunch a couple of years ago. The only change I made was to spoon the egg casserole over toasted English muffin halves when serving it.
