“Determined to come up with a brunch dish that didn’t keep me in the kitchen all morning, I created this casserole made with everyone’s favorite ingredients,” relates Jenny Flake of Gilbert, Arizona. “Preparation is minimal, and then it goes right into the oven, so you can spend more time with the ones you love.” Simply serve with a fruit salad for a hearty weekend breakfast guests will love.

I love this recipe! I did add bit to it. A 1/2 tsp of cayenne, 1/2 cup tomatoes instead of 1 whole cup. 1 potato chopped, 1 sweet onion,1/4 cup chopped yellow and red bell peppers, 1/4 cup mushrooms and 1 tsp. minced garlic sauteed in bacon drippings. Omitted the green chilies. Since I made my own biscuit mix I crumbled 2 slices of bacon and 2 Tbs. Parmesan Romano cheese into the biscuits. Greased pan with bacon grease. This is higher in calories then I usually cook, but sometimes.... :D

I made this recipe for my 15 year old son and 6 of his buddies. I did not include the onion or tomato but they LOVED this. I should have doubled it! Super easy and will definately make this often...
