Holy moley! That's a casserole that should serve as breakfast, lunch AND dinner! But if you're having brunch, then the calories don't count (not true, I just made that up). Great recipe.

Excellent recipe! Thanks for sharing! We've had several early morning meetings at work where they have purchased casseroles similar to this from a local place and they are very filling. You just need a little square of it about the size of a piece of birthday cake at kid's party. Good stuff!

thanks kids, nothing like a little comfort food to get the old arteries clogging, just make a big fruit salad and that will be your justification to also serve

This sounds really good. I love to cook. I would instead add bacon for an extra flavor booster cause i dont really like ham and Cream of Mushroom is always good to be added

LAS--True, but I've found that the cream of potato gives it a richer flavor, try one can of that and one can cream of mushroom.. mmm...golden mushroom..

i've had this! It is great for those "bring a dish" type mom's things. Yum!

yes, deerinheadlights, this is most popular, rich and slightly decadent... you probably don't bring home any leftovers!
