Breakfast Casserole for Two

From

April​/May 2011

Breakfast Casserole for Two

When we used fresh sandwich bread in our Breakfast Casserole for Two, it dissolved into nothingness in the oven. Toasted bread held up better, but tasters complained that it was too crunchy. We split the difference and used half fresh and half toasted sandwich bread. To speed up the cooking process, we started the casserole in a skillet and finished it in the oven. We also cranked up the heat in the oven to further speed things along. Because our casserole didn’t sit overnight, we were left with a bland breakfast: The flavors hadn’t had time to meld. To boost the flavor, we toasted our bread in some reserved bacon fat left over from frying our bacon.

Serves 2

You can substitute an equal amount of shredded Swiss, Gouda, or pepper Jack cheese for the cheddar.

Dear Home Cook,

If I were new to CooksCountry.com, I might think, "It's easy to get free recipes on the Internet. What makes your recipes different?" Well, unlike recipes from blogs, message boards, and other recipe sites, our recipes are exhaustively tested by our team of full-time test cooks until they offer consistently great results. That means fried chicken with a crunchy coating and moist meat, a low-fat recipe makeover for macaroni and cheese that’s as creamy and cheesy as the full-fat version, and fork-tender slow cooker pot roast.

We're obsessive in our quest to find and foolproof the best of American home cooking, from fuss-free weeknight dinners, to updated, simplified versions of regional specialties, to slow cooker and make ahead meals. CooksCountry.com is the only place you can find every foolproof recipe published in Cook’s Country magazine since 2005, plus objective ratings and test results from both Cook’s Country and Cook’s Illustrated for cookware and supermarket ingredients.

Let me make a simple, no-nonsense offer. Try out our website FREE for a 14-Day, No-Hassle Trial Offer. I’m pretty confident that CooksCountry.com will quickly become an invaluable resource for everything from a quick Tuesday supper to your next get-together with family and friends.

Thanks for your consideration,

Christopher Kimball
