Breakfast Casserole You Don’t Want to Miss

You are thinking, “oh great, just another breakfast casserole” but wait…this is not just another one. It is probably the lightest and fluffiest one I have ever had. Had breakfast at a friends home yesterday and she had made this. She had been to a breakfast where every lady there requested it. And yes, all 6 ladies there yesterday did the same. I don’t like cottage cheese, but didn’t even know it was in it.

10 eggs

1/2 cup flour

1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled

1 teas salt

1/2 teas pepper

2 teas baking powder

2 cups grated cheddar or jack cheese

1 4 oz can chopped green chiles

5 slices bacon, cooked an crumbled

2 cups small curd cottage cheese

Blend eggs, flour, butter, baking powder, salt and pepper. Fold in cheese, chiles, bacon and cottage cheese. Pour mixture into a greased 9×12 baking dish.

Bake for 30 min at 400 or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean

Serves 6-9 depending on sizes of portion.

Options, can add mushrooms or spinach to batter.

Thanks Marilyn for sharing this with us…it was really delicious.
