ELEGANT BRUNCH CASSEROLE
This is a lovely choice for a Christmas or New Year's brunch or to serve special houseguests. I found the recipe years ago in an old church cookbook, and it's proven to be wonderfully adaptable. You can substitute Canadian bacon or ham for the regular bacon if you prefer and vary the cheeses according to your family's preferences. (Gruyere is great!) If you don't cook with wine, just add more milk mixed with a little water to thin. You can also replace the meat with sauteed mushrooms for a vegetarian version. Please note that it must be refrigerated overnight. Enjoy!

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better your casserole will taste. Look for fresh vegetables, flavorful cheeses, and high-quality meats.
- Don't overcook the casserole: Casseroles are best when they are cooked through but still have a little bit of a bite to them. Overcooking will make the casserole dry and tough.
- Let the casserole rest before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the casserole to set.
