Crock Pot Egg Brunch Casserole 3-11-12
As I've blogged before, I had an army of guys to feed before their kayak trip and I was dreading waking up and cooking breakfast for them, so I decided to try this recipe in the crock pot and put in the work the night before. The only thing I would do differently next time is to serve with tortillas like a taco!
Ingredients: 6-8 strips of bacon (I used more than that); 1 onion, peeled and chopped; 1 clove garlic, minced and peeled; 1 red or green pepper, seeded and chopped; 1 (2 lb.) bag of frozen hash browns; 1 1/2 c. shredded cheese; 12 eggs; 1 c. whole milk; 1 t. dried dill; 1/2 t. salt (I did to taste); 1/2 t. pepper (I did to taste)
Directions: Spray crock pot with non-stick cooking spray. Cook bacon until crisp, cool, and then chop into 1/2" pieces, set aside. Saute onion, garlic, and bell pepper for 5 mins. Place 1/3 of frozen has browns in the bottom of crock pot. Add 1/3 bacon, and 1/3 onion, garlic, and pepper mixture, and 1/3 cheese. Repeat layers, ending with cheese. In a large bowl, mix eggs, milk, dill, salt & pepper. Pour over ingredients in crock pot, cover and turn on low. Cook for 8-10 hours. When done, thermometer in center should read 160 degrees F. Yields 8-10 servings.
