Notes

Bread Variation:

Choose whole wheat English muffins or croissants for a taste and texture change.

Meat Options:

Try cooked sausage, ham, or turkey bacon instead of Canadian bacon for a distinctive variation.

Mix-ins:

Add sautéed veggies to the casserole, such as spinach, bell peppers, or onions, for more taste and nutrition.

Prepare Overnight:

Prepare and refrigerate the casserole the night before. It can be baked in the morning for a quick breakfast.

Cheese Choice:

Try experimenting with various kinds of cheese, such as Swiss, Pepper Jack, or Feta, to customize the flavour to your liking.

A Mixture of Eggs:

Make sure the egg mixture evenly coats all of the ingredients. To prevent air pockets, gently press.

Baking Period:

Since cooking durations vary, keep an eye on the casserole in the final few minutes to prevent overcooking.

Resting Time:

After baking, let the casserole cool for a few minutes to set before slicing.

Serving recommendations:

To enhance flavours, serve with salsa, spicy sauce, or a dollop of sour cream.

Storage:

Keep any leftovers chilled right away. Slices can be quickly reheated in the oven or microwave for later breakfast.
