I came across this recipe last week and thought that I would try it. We had it for lunch today. My kids ask for seconds, so I guess that they liked it!
This is so simple and inexpensive to make.
Breakfast Casserole:
1 Stick butter ($0.25)
32-oz package of Frozen Hash Browns ($1.29)
1 Dozen Eggs ($0.79)
1 cup Milk ($0.16)
2 cups Shredded Cheese ($1.16)
2 cups or more diced ham or browned sausage (I used left over polish from dinner last night --and I only paid 50 cents for the whole thing--so maybe 10 cents))
Melt butter in 9×13in pan. Spread 3/4 of the hash browns in pan. Slightly beat eggs and add milk, cheese, meat, salt and pepper. Pour mixture over hash browns. Top with remaining has browns. Bake for 1 hour at 350º if everything is thawed – add 15 minutes if not.
**If I had thought about it I would have put a little chopped onion in it--oh well!
Total cost $3.75--not bad for six people, and there's a little left over!

Life as Mom
Hello Everyone and Welcome to Swappin' Spoons! Years ago, I started this blog because I had asked for a Potato Soup recipe over on Facebook and 37 of my friends sent me a recipe for potato soup. 37! I instantly thought we needed a place to share recipes and immediately thought of starting a blog. I told my husband I needed a catchy name for the blog and he is the one that came up with Swappin' Spoons.

We like to make breakfast casserole on Sundays after coming home from church in the morning. Yum! I used to make a recipe with about 10 slices of torn up bread as the bottom layer, but have recently switched to a recipe more like yours with hash browns, so that we can go a little more low carb.

I'd make this for dinner, too, with a fruit salad on the side. Thanks for the recipe. I'm going to bookmark it and try it very soon!
