    I love breakfast casseroles because they are quick to prepare and can be made in advance, if needed. It's really great to make this at the end of the week to use up any ingredients that you might have leftover in your fridge.

    Would be perfect to make on Sunday when you are relaxing and trying to use up the few ingredients before they go spoil. So far I have tried this with peppers, mushrooms, you name it.

    Since I have tried this breakfast casserole many different ways, I decided I really love it with diced potatoes and bacon crumbled up in it. The flavor is amazing.

    This breakfast casserole does serve 6; however, you can easily double that by adding adding fruit or even vegetables on the side. It would then serve 12.

    If you are looking for something very similar to this breakfast casserole, then I think you would love these paleo breakfast muffins! They are kind of like a casserole, just muffin-style. You could even try this in muffin tins. I am not sure how many muffins it would make, though. Definitely something I should try.

      What I appreciate is there is no cheese in this casserole...I know, I know, but several family members are allergic, so this is pretty simple, pretty awesome and hearty!

        I too am severely allergic to cheese, sour cream, and wine. Food allergies are some times harsh. This is the first breakfast casserole recipe I've seen that didn't include cheese. I think I'll make it this weekend when our son comes home from college. Thank you very much for sharing this recipe!

      Hi: Can you tell me if the potatoes are cooked or are they raw when you mix in with the eggs? Do you think I could use the potatoes that are packaged to save time?

        Hi Nancy - I used raw potatoes and diced them finely. I will update the recipe with that information, thank you! I would think you would be able to use packaged potatoes, I have not tried it yet.

        I diced my potatoes and boiled them for a couple minutes, drain, let them cool and then put in egg mixture.

      I diced the bacon, cooked it quick in a pan... added the diced potato to that mix...
      Dumped it in a mix of 7 eggs with milk, whipped. (Just what I had on hand)

      I baked as suggested and about ten mins in added some pepper jack cheese to the top (we have lots of it shredded) and some left over bacon pieces....

      YUM!

      Thanks for the ideas.

      This recipe is delicious and solid on ratios, easily accommodating items on hand:
      Omitted two eggs, reduced milk from 1/3 to 1/4 cup, 1 cup sauteed onions and red peppers and a tablespoon of chopped Italian parsley. Subbed lean spicy Italian sausage for the bacon. Thanks!

      I have made a variation of this for years. In addition to the listed ingredients, you might try adding diced green chiles and corn. There is hardly anything better on this earth.

      I love that this does not have cheese, and we didn't miss the cheese at all! I shredded the potatoes, and used 4 eggs and a cup of Southwestern flavored egg whites (the equivalent of 4 eggs) to reduce the calories and fat. I did have to double the cook time thought, and glad I did, because otherwise my potatoes would not have been done. Thank you for sharing!

      Has anyone tried this doubled in a 9x13 pan? Curious if it would work for a brunch I have tomorrow. Also wondering if anyone has made it the night before and then just baked it in the morning.

      Wow! Just made this today for me and my husband. We love eating breakfast for dinner and this was the best casserole I've ever had. I used a 13x9 pan so I used two more eggs, the entire bacon pack and I put bell peppers in it. It was amazing! Thanks for this recipe. I will be making this a lot.

      This freezes great. I make it for mountain sheep hunters, freeze it in foil so they can heat it up with coffee before their morning hunt. Add a muffin or sweet roll and it is a very hearty mail to eat at the camp or while riding horseback up the trail.

      Added chopped onion to shredded potatoes in the skilket. Replaced sausage with precooked broccoli. Seasoning upgrade: dash of garlic salt and onion powder. Vegetarian Egg Bake. Voila!

      I liked that I could make this in a pie pan rather than a 13x9.

      My daughter is GF/DF. Glad to find a recipe without cheese! What is best substitute for milk? Unsweetened almond do you think?

      Thanks,

        I like unsweetened almond milk, but coconut milk will work.

        I used rice milk. It's baking as I write this. I think unsweetened almond milk would cook the same. As it's a small amount of milk there may or may not be a mild difference in taste.
