Breakfast Casserole Recipe

by alice on December 20, 2009 · 23 comments

All the holiday cookies and treats have been baked. Presents still need
to be purchased, wrapped, and placed beneath the Christmas tree. It’s hard to believe that in just a few days my kids will be running to our family room at the crack of dawn to see what Santa brought them. I typically wake up around 6am to bake cinnamon rolls and make coffee so when the family wakes up the smell is permeating throughout our house.

From there I sneak back into bed and listen for the sound of feet running across our creaking hardwood floors towards our bedroom. The kids will be shouting at us with joy and excitement begging us to get up so they can open presents. From there, I go straight to the kitchen to pour my husband and I a cup of coffee, remove the cinnamon rolls from the oven and replacing it with our traditional Breakfast Casserole to bake. While we wait for our casserole, our family enjoys opening presents and eating freshly baked cinnamon rolls. This has been our tradition for the past 10 years and every year I look forward to it.

breakfast-pancakeThis morning I woke up at 6am to a quiet house. Everyone was still fast asleep giving me just what I needed to make my husband a manly breakfast pan”cake”.  The result was a fun breakfast for everyone.  So Happy Father’s Day to all you papas out there!

Recipe for Breakfast Pan”cake”

4 – 8″ pancakes

1 cup of whipped cream

1 cup of sliced strawberries

1.5 cups of roasted potatoes

1.5 cups of scrambled eggs

1 lb. of cooked bacon

Instructions:

Lay the first pancake down on a plate or serving platter. Add a layer of roasted potatoes all the way to the edge. Add another pancake and add the scrambled eggs. Add the third pancake and add your bacon. Add the final pancake. At this point if everything is cold, you will want to microwave everything for 3 minutes right before serving. Top off with strawberries and whipped cream and serve immediately. Enjoy!!

Cut carefully just like a slice of cake.

The slice will not likely stay intact but still doesn’t take away the specialness of its presentation. Serve with butter and maple syrup!

breakfastwrap2My kids love Breakfast Burritos and Quesidillas made with cheese, eggs, and tortillas.  My husband and I prefer more fillings and I call ours “Deluxe Breakfast Wraps”.  These make great to-go meals when you need to eat on the run and are unbelievably fast to prepare with no need to scramble eggs in a pan.  A plain burrito wish cheese and egg costs about $.50.  The Deluxe wrap runs about $.98.  I’ll break down the cost in the end.  But for now Here is the recipe.
