Breakfast Bake

Breakfast is the most fun meal of the day!  I love breakfast food whether it is morning, noon or night. And I love these all in one dishes.  They are great when you have guests overnight or you are having a summer weekend getaway at the cabin.  You could also pop it in the oven before church and it's ready when you get back.  It looks easy to prepare & filling enough to last you until lunch.

1 1/2 cups egg substitute
1/2 cup fat free milk
3 1/2 cups frozen O'Brien potatoes, thawed
1 1/3 cups shredded reduced fat cheddar cheese, divided
1/2 cup chopped sweet onion
4 Tbs. crumbled cooked bacon, divided
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp salt-free seasoning blend
1/4 tsp chili powder
4 green onions, chopped




1.  In a large bowl, whisk egg substitute and milk.  Stir in the potatoes, 1 cup cheese, onion, 2 tbs. bacon, salt, seasoning blend and chili powder.  Pour into an 8-in square baking dish coated with cooking spray.

2.  Bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.  Sprinkle with remaining cheese and bacon.  Bake 3-5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.  Sprinkle with green onions.  Let stand for 5 minutes before cutting

Where did we find this one?  Taste of Home


There are plenty of good breakfast bakes/casseroles  recipes out there.  This one had way too much onion  and not enough seasoning.   We also prefer one with shredded potatoes and ham a bit better. Although this bake was not bad, it is definitely NOT A KEEPER in our house.
