Substitutions for this Breakfast Casserole
Switch out the bacon bits for crumbled sausage.
You can use just about any shredded cheese or even goat cheese. Personally, I think it tastes best with a sharper cheese like Cheddar or Colby.
Leave out the bacon and cheddar and use feta and chopped chives for a different flavor.
Can you make this ahead of time?
I would recommend against this. I find it doesn’t taste as amazing as when it’s made fresh.
