• TO TO MAKE HAM & POTATO BREAKFAST CASSEROLE REALLY EASY
• To to to to like to use prepared potatoes in this recipe. Either a brand like Simply Potatoes that are fresh, not frozen, or frozen potatoes that you’ll just have to remember to thaw beforehand.
• to eliminates the scrubbing, peeling, and dicing to speed things up.
• to the ham, I like to buy a pre-cooked ham steak and quickly dice it up. You can also use leftovers if you’ve recently had ham because it freezes well.

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and lightly spray an 8 x 8 baking dish with non-stick spray. Set aside.

In a large bowl, add the potatoes, diced ham, and shredded cheese and stir to combine. Pour the potato mixture into the prepared baking dish.

In the same bowl, add the eggs, milk, salt and pepper and whisk together.

Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes and use a spatula to gently press down any potatoes that are peeking out.

Sprinkle with a handful more of cheese.

Bake for 40 minutes then check on it. The edges should be lightly brown and the center should be set and not jiggly. Mine took right around 45 minutes to bake.

Remove from oven and let sit for about 10 minutes on a cooling rack.

Slice and enjoy! I served mine with sour cream.

Recipe Notes

Either use fresh potatoes or thawed frozen potatoes.
