Greek Breakfast Casserole image

This is a great dish for a Sunday brunch, or you can cut it into six pieces and freeze it to have as a quick and easy breakfast any day of the week. I also like to make it with broccoli, carrots, green onions, Canadian bacon and sharp cheddar cheese; the variations are nearly endless! -Lauri Knox, Pine, Colorado

This casserole was a waste of time and money. It was bland, dry, and tasteless.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but this casserole turned out really dry. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This casserole was really easy to make, but it didn't turn out as well as I hoped. I think I overcooked it.

This casserole was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I'll use less cheese next time.
