BRITISH BRUNCH BAKE



British Brunch Bake image

This is great for a weekend breakfast. I have leftovers the next day and it tastes great as well. I found this on the internet as 'exported for Mastercook'. I used cheddar cheese instead of Swiss and omitted the 2 teaspoons of horseradish since we don't care for it. You could also use cooked bacon instead of the ham and I think next time I may throw in some chopped green peppers and/or onions as well. I hope you give it a try. A fantastic brunch dish or if you have guests staying over.

  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, or sage add a burst of flavor to the dish.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking the sausage, don't overcrowd the pan, or it will steam instead of brown.
