Breakfast Casserole - Crockpot

Mrs.BWilliams

Hi ladies! I need some help - I'm throwing a baby shower and need some ideas for a breakfast casserole that I can make in the crockpot. Or, I guess just something that can stay warm in a crockpot as the shower is 2+ hours away. I'm open to anything! Thank You!!

Ahh we love to tailgate and Iowa games are usually at 11am so...

I'm thinking a couple of things. You can always do cheesy potatoes/party potatoes and add ham to make them breakfast-ey. Or...

Hashbrown and bacon Quiche

Autumn Apple Pumpkin Crockpot cake

Breakfast Burritos

Bacon Wrapped Smokies - but instead of smokies, how about little sausages??

Or a very easy - sub in your breakfast favorites - egg casserole:

• 32 oz. bag frozen hash brown potatoes
• 1 lb. cooked ham, cubed
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 green bell pepper, chopped
• 1 Tbsp. olive oil
• 1-1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
• 12 eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. pepper

Preparation:

Spray inside of slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray. In small skillet, cook onion and green pepper in olive oil until crisp tender. Let cool about 10 minutes. Place one third of the frozen hash brown potatoes in the slow cooker. Add one third of the ham, onion, green pepper and cheese. Repeat layers, ending with the cheese.

In a large bowl, beat the eggs, milk and seasonings until well mixed. Pour over the ingredients in the slow cooker, cover and turn on low. Cook for 8-10 hours, until casserole is set and eggs are thoroughly cooked. Serves 12

If you have a new hotter cooking crockpot, you'll need to check this after 6 hours. It will probably be done after 7 hours. The eggs should reach a temperature of 160 degrees F.
