Why do I like to make breakfast the night before after just cleaning up dinner dishes? Because… it’s daylight savings night… people that know me know that this is a big adjustment for me twice a year. Since we are LOSING an hour overnight and getting the Monkey to Sunday School at 9 am is really 8 am… I need all the help I can get. (Also because I’m trying to exercise more and hope to hit a walk in the morning while this is baking away in the oven.)
Let’s Get Crafty!
Spray Pam in a 9×13 pan (preheat the oven to 350 if you are baking this bad boy right away)
Cut leftover rolls (I had about 8 to use up) into 1 inch pieces – toss into the pan
(You can also use french bread or regular sliced bread.)
(You can also use french bread or regular sliced bread.)
1 cup shredded cheese spread on top of that (I always use whatever I have on hand… cheddar cheese would be my favorite… on this day it was a Colby Jack mix.)
2 cups diced ham (I LOVE to buy pre-cooked ham steaks when they are on sale at the store. They are super easy and fast to thaw in cool water – as I did today.)
For the egg mixture – if possible – enlist a 9 year old to help with the egg-cracking and mixing
(shout out for all Mamas trying to get used to having a little boy growing into a young man)
9 eggs
1/3 cup fat free 1/2 and 1/2 (whatever you use in your coffee or milk would work too)
1/4 teaspoon pepper
I don’t add any salt because the ham brings a lot to the table
Wisk together and pour evenly over the top
I covered mine with foil for the night and will pull out as soon as I wake up to get to room temp and throw in the oven.
If at room temperature – Baking at 350 for 30-40 minutes should be good. Test with a knife to make sure the eggs are cooked.
Generally… I get over-zealous and throw it in still a little cold and it takes longer… so I check it in 5 minute intervals after 40 minutes until the top is nice and brown and the knife comes out clean.
Thank you for stopping by! Happy Sunday Funday!
