Overnight Bacon Breakfast Casserole

I am a huge fan of the overnight breakfast casserole. In the mornings, I never feel like making a big breakfast. We’ll usually have toast or cereal. It’s a special occasion when I make bacon and eggs. I think it’s because my to-do list is long and I don’t feel I have the time to spend in the kitchen making a fancy breakfast.

When I prepare breakfast the night before, it’s another story. I can pop it in the oven and bake. No clean-up. No prep work. Easy peasy. I love it. 

This Overnight Bacon Breakfast Casserole is one of my family’s favorite breakfasts. I mean, what’s not to love about bacon and cheese. It’s comforting, delicious and fills you up for hours. I think it’s a yummy way to start your day and give you the energy to get whatever it is you need to do done. 

Breakfast casseroles are popular around the holidays when company is coming over to visit. You want to make the extra effort for your guests and this easy recipe is sure to impress.
