This was great for our weekly 'breakfast for dinner' night! Made as written except used frozen hash browns that I left defrost in a colander over the sink. The only criticism my Wisconsin-raised husband had was it could use more cheese...go figure. :) Will add some to the top next time a few minutes before it is ready to come out of the oven.

I made this for Christmas breakfast and everyone really enjoyed it. It was nice and easy to put together. Instead of montery jack cheese I used old cheddar. Thanks for a great recipe.

We really enjoyed this! I put this together the night before (except for the bacon) and popped it in the oven in the morning. Delicious! Great flavor with just the right combination of veggies. I do think that the veggies are a must in this recipe! Thanks diner! I will make this again! Made for Potluck Tag

I made this without any vegetables. I did think it was a little dry but other than that it had a good taste. Made for Zaar Stars

This is definitely a comfort type food that is good for any occasion. I made it for a breakky/supper and it was perfect. I love the versatility of this recipe too. I chose to omit the veggie part and went strictly with just bacon. Afterward I was sorry I didn't add a bit of fried up sausage. I also had leftover mashed potatoes and used those instead of shredded hashbrowns. Included a bit of seasoned salt to the egg mixture and then used fresh ground pepper and seasalt on top of the potatoes after drizzling the butter. Mmmmm-mmmm!~ Made for ZaarStars~
