Sheepherder’s Breakfast
My sister-in-law always made this delicious breakfast dish when we were camping and had to come up with good, easy breakfast ideas. Served with toast, juice and milk or coffee, it's a sure hit with the breakfast crowd! One-dish casseroles like this were a big help while I was raising my nine children. Now I've passed this recipe on to them. —Pauletta Bushnell, Albany, Oregon
Ingredients
- 3/4 pound bacon strips, finely chopped
- 1 medium onion, chopped

- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
