[recipe*] Amish Breakfast Casserole

[Guest guest]

Here is a recipe I like to make as a weekend

brunch dish. I found this recipe back in 2002

in a Quick Cooking magazine, but had to try

converting it into a veg-friendly version to

see if veggie bacon strips would work, and

they do! This makes a great casserole that

even an omnivore would love to eat for brunch.

 

Amish Breakfast Casserole

 

1 package (5 oz depending upon brand) vegetarian bacon strips*

Non-stick cooking spray

1 meduim sweet onion, chopped

6 eggs, lightly beaten

4 cup shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed

2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

1 1/2 cups (12 oz) small curd cottage cheese

1 1/4 cups shredded Swiss cheese

 

In a large skillet that has been sprayed with non-stick

cooking spray, cook bacon and onion until bacon is crisp.

In a bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; stir in bacon

mixture. Transfer to a greased 13x9x2 inch baking dish.

 

Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes or until

set and bubbly. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.

Yield: 12 servings.

 

*I used Gimme Lean Smart Bacon brand (vegetarian) but

MSF bacon strips can be used also.
