Farmer’s Casserole is a great way to start the day. It combines great ingredients in every bite and it makes for a delicious breakfast! My mom brought this recipe with her while they were visiting for Thanksgiving and we made it on her last morning here.
They all loved it! Potatoes, eggs, cheese, ham and onions make for an amazing meal and I will be making it again for Christmas day. It can be prepared the night before and baked in the morning. I love that I won’t have to spend more time in the kitchen on Christmas morning so I can spend every minute with my family and enjoy watching my kids open their presents and see what Santa brought them!
