Jessica’s Notes

Best served with:

  • Fresh fruit
  • Mixed greens with a light vinaigrette

Wine pairing:

  • Prosecco adds a light, festive touch to brunch.
  • Sparkling Rosé pairs well with bacon, ham, and cheddar cheese.
  • Sauvignon Blanc complements vegetable-filled variations.
  • Unoaked Chardonnay works well with the creamy egg base.

Prep Ahead:

  • Prepare the add-ins the night before and refrigerate.
  • Assemble the casserole up to 12 hours ahead, cover, and refrigerate before baking.

Storage:

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Reheat in a 350°F oven until warmed through and the internal temperature reaches 150–165°F.

Freezer-friendly:

  • Freeze baked portions for up to 2 months.
  • Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.

Variations:

  • Use Swiss, Monterey Jack, pepper jack, or mozzarella cheese.
  • Add cooked sausage instead of ham or bacon.
  • Make it vegetarian with mushrooms, peppers, spinach, and onions.
  • Add a pinch of garlic powder, onion powder, or Italian seasoning for extra flavor.
