Question of the Morning
- What is your favorite breakfast casserole?
Every year my mom makes a breakfast casserole called cheese puff casserole on Christmas morning and it is the best. I still need to share that one with you guys!
Caitlyn @ City and the Cubicle says
This looks and sounds amazing! I haven’t had a good breakfast casserole in so long….that must change 😉
Charlotte @ Commitness to Fitness says
That casserole looks soo good! My favorite is one that I’ve made when I was trying to use up veggies (that doesn’t have a name), but it’s loaded with veggies- spinach, mushrooms, peppers, broccoli, etc and lots of swiss cheese 🙂
Katie @ Peace Love and Oats says
Okay that casserole looks absolutely delicious. We always make a breakfast casserole Christmas morning but I might have to suggest this one for this year!
Kylie says
Yum! This is a pretty healthy breakfast that I’m sure my brothers would eat. They’re so picky whenever they know I’m cooking in the kitchen! 😉
Jana @ Happy Wife Healthy Life says
This looks great (and easy)! Woul be perfect for a brunch potluck too since it seems like it can feed a crowd! My mom makes a casserole using via quick, eggs, ham, onion, cheese and bacon.. It is one of my favorite special occasion breakfasts!
Katie says
Hi Julie! As always, I love checking out your posts where you include good meal ideas! Now that the summer months are approaching, I’m always looking for more group-sized meals since summer means more family and friends time, and more people to cook for! That being said, I was wondering if you have tried any new dinner recipes? My recipes have been getting a bit boring lately at dinner time, and I’m looking to spice things up, even with the warmer weather. Thanks!
Carly @ Snack Therapy says
I love anything with potatoes + cheese + bacon. Realllll healthy over here ;).
Erin says
Can you honestly say your giveaway winners are chosen randomly? The last couple winners have seemed to be hand-picked, based on their comment/reason for wanting to win. Not that I have a problem with the winners (I didn’t even enter the contests), just wondering if you’re providing complete transparency regarding how the winners are chosen.
Mallory @ My Quarter Life [Crisis] says
I was wondering about this too.
julie @ peanut butter fingers says
Hi Erin! I use random.org. My comments aren’t numbered like they used to be (they now nest within in a post so the pages load faster), so I look to see how many pages of comments I have for the giveaway. I then do the random number generator on random.org for the number of pages, then go to the page that “won” and run it again (1-50) for the winner since there are 50 comments on each page & just count down from there. I hope this makes sense!
Tara says
My favorite b-fast casserole involves spinach, tomatoes, onions, mushrooms and bacon! Yumm!
Hannah @ CleanEatingVeggieGirl says
Breakfast casserole is AMAZING, and this one looks so delicious! I will have to try out your recipe but substitute the Canadian Bacon with vegetarian “bacon” or tempeh “bacon.”
Danica @ It's Progression says
My mom makes an awesome egg bake breakfast casserole that has hardly any cheese but a lot of fresh veggies (bell peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms, spinach) and I love it!
Beth @ Mangoes and Miles says
This looks fantastic! I’ve actually never had a breakfast casserole. My dad tends to make more flour-based breakfasts than egg/casserole-based, which I’m perfectly fine with. 🙂 Casseroles look so easy to make, though. I might have to give it a shot one of these days!
Lindsay says
My favorite is one just like yours — we always have some sort of egg casserole on Christmas morning. It’s my favorite 🙂
Becky says
Yum! I love breakfast casseroles! Especially ones that incorporate veggies. 🙂
Ashee@HisHers says
This is probably crazy but I’ve never had breakfast casserole! Ever. So sad right?
Rachel @ Undercover Diva: A Sitcom says
I don’t really eat casseroles because I don’t eat eggs, but I love anything that has has browns, cheese, and veggies baked together!!
Linz @ Itz Linz says
i never make breakfast casseroles – not sure why…. i may try this one!
Erin @ Girl Gone Veggie says
That casserole looks amazing! I would definitely make this and just leave out the meat!
Jamie @ Sometimes Healthy Living Blog says
I’m looking to host people at my new house soon and this seems like the perfect morning breakfast dish!
I’m a huge casserole fan – you pretty much throw anything with eggs into a breakfast casserole and I am happy. The best ones I’ve had are super cheesy but I’ve never known every ingredient in them 😉
Lauren says
To be honest, I don’t know if I’ve EVER had a breakfast casserole. Maybe at dinner? I’m not sure. I’m more of a dippy egg fan with jelly on toast. Mmm! This would make a great dish if you’re having guests stay overnight, though! So quick and easy!
Ashley @ Life and Fitness says
I love any egg casserole, but especially ones with spinach and feta cheese, delish!
Annette@FitnessPerks says
I haven’t made this type of casserole in forevs–looks delicious!
Beth Sheridan says
I’ve never had a breakfast casserole that I didn’t like…Two of my favorites that my mom makes are a sausage cheesy one that looks a lot like the one you have pictured above and then a french toast one that is killer sweet and AMAZing!!!
Jessica R @ fromthekitchentotheroad says
I make something similar to this but never thought to put bread in. I LOVE bread. I will have to try that out. It isn’t exactly a casserole but I have made this baked french bread thing for brunch before. It was the best thing ever!
Ashley @ Eat Run Live Happy says
Have you ever had Paula Deans French Toasts casserole. OMG it’s like a once a year thing but AMAZING!!!
karen says
This sounds YUMMY! Breakfast casseroles are one thing that my whole family will eat…including the kids…so I’ll definitely be trying this one out. Thanks!
Michelle says
I have a question for YOU, Julie…:) I would love to be more of a morning person like you but I also enjoy being a night owl. What is your secret? Just consistency with your alarm time. I’m always more productive when starting my day earlier but I’m motivated by your posts of starting early! 🙂
Renee says
I am definitely going to be making this to have breakfast for a week! This looks like something that could totally trick my boyfriend into thinking he’s eating a really fattening/indulgent breakfast, when it’s really a much healthier option. Thanks Julie!!! Love your posts <3
Katie @ Talk Less, Say More says
What about those muffins? I’m eyeing them! 😉
Kate says
Thanks for the discount at the etsy shop – I purchased the anchor earrings you had in your giveaway post!

victoria @ reluctnatlyskinny says
My aunt makes the most amazing breakfast casserole that I’ve been meaning to replicate, but have this insane fear that it won’t be as good! This looks delicious =)
Ashley says
Looks super delicious and easy!
Lindsay says
Did you use frozen shreded spinach or fresh spinach? I’ve never seen fresh shredded spinach.
peanutbutterfingers says
I just shredded it with my hands 🙂
Holly @ EatGreatBEGreat says
Breakfast casseroles are the best! This one looks delicious!
Jan @ Sprouts n Squats says
Yum that looks really easy but delicious too 🙂
Meghan @ After the Ivy League says
A breakfast casserole is such a great idea to mix things up! I’ve been in a bit of a breakfast rut, either an egg sandwich, oats, or pancakes. A recipe like this should definitely help snap me out of it!
Pearl says
Made this tonight for a potluck meeting at work and added basil and red peppers along side some whole wheat crepes and my co-workers loved it! Thanks so much for the recipe!
