Hey everyone....
Hope things are going good for you and yours.
Things are busy around SWEET NOTHINGS.....
getting ready for a MOVE "sure ain't for SISSIES"...... !!! :)
Ya know how sometimes you prepare something in your kitchen
WITHOUT a real recipe...
using up some extra things that are in the fridge....?
Well, I had a lot of extra thin sliced HAM...
a half loaf of TEXAS TOAST BREAD that really needed to be used...
HENCE.....
the BEST breakfast casserole I have ever made....
Mr. Sweet says it was the best he had EVER eaten.
AWESOME !!
I started with cubed, crust removed, thick Texas Toast Bread (NOT toasted)
added the chopped ham and CHEDDAR cheese
(I had sliced cheese so I just cut it in pieces and saved my
SHREDDED EXTRA SHARP CHEDDAR for the top.)
6 eggs, salted and peppered....we LUV COURSE GROUND black pepper....
about a 1/2 cup of milk....
adding FRESH, chopped mild HATCH peppers.
After adding the beaten eggs,
I covered this baby with every bit of cheese I had on hand.
THEN CAME THE BACON
(if EARL over at HAPPIER THAN A PIG IN MUD is reading this.....
i'm sorry, man !!
i luv BACON
Into a 350 oven for about 25 minutes or until EGGS are set.
This was sooo good and I am pretty sure it was the
COARSE GROUND BLACK PEPPER
and
the fresh HATCH PEPPERS....
well.....and the HAM
O...... and the CHEESE
and, of COURSE,
THE BACON...
BUT one of the best things is that I made enuf for Mr. Sweet and I to have more for
tomorrow's breakfast !!!
:>)
XOXO, bj

BLUE MONDAY (Sally, I know I'm stretching it by having only this little, nearly blue bowl with eggs in it...)
Oh mercy that sounds wonderful!
ReplyDeleteMr. Sweet is a spoiled man. Great eats all the time!
ReplyDeletethat looks so yummy! good idea for me tonight :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks yummy to me! I love breakfast casserole. But just for the record, when I start mixing stuff up without a recipe, it rarely comes out delicious. Of course, what is really pathetic is that I eat it anyway.
ReplyDeleteOh my word! That is definately something to try!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recipe!
Shel
BJ, you are the most creative thing! Now, tell me: how in the world can a little thing like you eat like this and LIVE?
ReplyDeleteHappy Blue Monday!
That looks and sounds delicious! All I had was a bowl of cherrios this morning :-(
ReplyDeleteOh YUM, this is going on my recipe list on my sidebar! Makes this Georgia Gal REALLY hungry this morning! HUGS to you sweet friend!
ReplyDeleteI was going to say that's a lot of breakfast for two people. Next time you make this you need to invite us over. Looks yummy.
ReplyDeleteOh looks so good. Now I have a reason to buy another ham! LOL.
ReplyDeleteI left a little Blue on my blog today. Come by and see me.
Have a wonderful week,
Sherry
The breakfast casserole looks and sounds yummy. Have a blessed day. Madeline
ReplyDeleteI want to be invited to brunch @ Miss BJ's house! This looks delicious! *off to force-down some bran cereal*
ReplyDeleteI just happen to have some sliced ham in the fridge and the rest of the ingedients too, except the bacon. I am making this SOON!!!!!!!! When do you move???? How far???? I KNOW it ain't for sissies, I am still trying to get this house "put together"!!! XO, Pinky
ReplyDeleteYou missed your calling. Should have been a lady chef.
ReplyDeleteIt does look mighty fine! That bacon and cheese must have sent it right over the top!
ReplyDeleteI would weigh 400 pounds if I was near you!! Your food ALWAYS looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteMy mouth is watering - This look so tasty...and I love egg casseroles!
ReplyDeleteThat looks too good. I hardly ever use a recipe either. I detest moving but having a new place to settle into and decorate can be fun. xo, olive
ReplyDelete(with a deep inhale) Oh my gosh, I just came from one blog cookin' up something delicious, and then I'm drawn HERE!!! Oh, it smells delicious, sounds delicious, and I can't wait to make a delicious batch of THIS breakfast casserole, just as soon as I can, BJ! Thanks so much for sharing your recipe, and I hope you're enjoying your holiday weekend! ~tina
ReplyDeleteyum yum, I love bacon too :)

I think it was the chiles that made this dish! It sounds just great. I'll be trying this soon. I have some frozen Hatch chile in the freezer waiting to be used!
ReplyDeleteGood job using up bits and pieces you had on hand! I did this last night with black bean soup. Best of luck with the move!
ReplyDeleteBJ,
ReplyDeleteYuMMy!!!
Love these types of recipes!!!
Makes me laugh 'cause I always remember doing this, then our sons would say, "Man, MoM you out did yourself tonight. Can we have this again?" Problem was, I couldn't remember EXACTLY what I had thrown into the mix!!! Ha!
Thanks for the memory...and YOUR recipe!!!
Fondly,
Pat
Yum. I love breakfast food...mostly for dinner as my husband leaves too early for me to want to get up and fix breakfast. He likes that quiet time alone with his book and coffee while I shower and get dressed...maybe retirement will change that, but I doubt it. I think most everything is better with bacon and cheese...yum!
ReplyDeleteOh my yes! This looks soooo good! Don't you love it when you stumble on something fantastic?:>)
ReplyDeleteOh that looks good. I would do that for a breakfast for supper. Perfect for a cold January evening. Love cooking once and having two meals out of it. I am not familiar with Hatch peppers. Are they spicy hot? You always cook the best meals!
ReplyDeleteThat does look delicious. Thanks for sharing the recipe. :) Hope you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteLooks blue enough to me- AND looks good enough to eat! Pie day? YUM~~ xo Diana
ReplyDeleteOh my goodnes,,,You made my mouth water! Thanks for sharing the fab pics and the recipe. I'm making it for sure! dix---
ReplyDeleteBoy does that look good! And Earl says he understands-ya gotta love the pig! If I ever see fresh Hatch chiles here in Philly I think I'll faint... Truly hope I do one day though-enjoy:@)
ReplyDeleteThat really looks great. I can see why it was so delicious. Sometimes those thrown-together dishes are the best. Good luck with the move!
ReplyDeleteWonderful food, great photos!
ReplyDeleteLooks very tasty BJ.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Looks so good bj and I am sure it is delicious. Love when I can make something for two or three meals at one time. That one would last us about four meals or more. Have not seen Hatch peppers. Will have to look. I think I have made something like that using frozen hash browns as the base. Also good. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Hi BJ *hugs*
ReplyDeleteOh I love when that happens...when you toss especially leftovers together and end up with something so delicious. Your meal looks so good. I would certainly have dropped in had I know. Good thing you wrote it down so you can do it again. I've done that before...not written and then just forgotten.
I hope you have had a great new year so far...and have a great week too!

Oh yum! Those hatch peppers looks delicious! Good luck with your move!
ReplyDeleteOh my!! This will be made over the weekend ASAP! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
ReplyDeleteI cook as rarely as possible but you had me hanging on every word. :D Love your style and this looks delish. What did I miss about a move? You're moving? Fill me in when you get a chance.
