| Christmas breakfast idea!
Crockpot Breakfast Casserole
1 32-ounce bag of frozen southern style hashbrown potatoes (aka frozen shredded potatoes)
1 lb. of bacon cut into pieces, fried & drained
1/2 c. diced onions
1 green pepper diced
3/4 lb. cheddar cheese diced
1 dozen eggs
1 c. milk
1/2 tsp. dry mustard
salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
Layer the frozen potatoes, bacon, onions, green pepper and cheese in the crock pot in two
or three layers. Finish up with cheese. Beat the eggs, milk, mustard, salt & pepper
together. Pour over whole mixture, Cook on low for ten to twelve hours.
PERSONAL NOTES:
* I use the store brand potatoes which are much cheaper, and the taste is just as yummy
* I personally do not add the onion & green pepper as my kiddos would not eat it if I did.
I would assume adding onions & peppers gives it sort of western omlet taste, but I don't
know.
* I have substituted ham, sausage, grilled turkey and grilled chicken (at different times) for
the bacon. My DH, DS12 & DS6 like it with any kind of meat. Any meat works just fine. I
personally do not eat red meat, so I make a smaller version for myself in my "lil dipper"
crockpot which contains no meat at all. Still yummy.
* Dry mustard - I have no idea what purpose this ingredient serves. If you don't have it on
hand I really don't think it would make that much difference.
Happy Holidays!!
