Brunch Egg Bake

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Bake: 35 min. + standing YIELD: 12 servings.
Here's an easy, tasty dish to make for company that still allows you to spend plenty of time with your guests. I grew up in the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch Country, and food was always the center of attention at our family get-togethers. We think brunch is the best meal of the day to gather and enjoy. —Gloria Rohlfing, York, Pennsylvania
