I served this for a family brunch, and everyone asked for the recipe! I used less than the 2 cups of half and half because I didn't have enough, and it still came out fine. I used the jalapeno, green chilies, and tabasco (about 10 drops), and it still could have used more of a kick. So they weren't very spicy, but very delicious! And easy because you make them up the night before.

Easy and yummy. This is definitely a keeper and a do again. Next time I am gonna try and freeze a poriton after baking and see how well it does after thawing a nd reheating.

I made this as specified but did not include jalapenos. It didn't taste bad, it was simply bland. I won't make it again. There were left overs and no one was interested in saving them. I did like the night before prep; it made the morning go easy. The presentation of the casserole was a plus. Unfortunately it looked way better than it tasted.

YUM! I used sausage instead of ground ham, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Thanks for a great breakfast treat.

I followed the directions exactly. It was just O.K. I wouldn't make it again.
