This Egg and Cheese Casserole is perfect for a brunch or potluck. The bread basically melts into the eggs and cheese to make a light and cheesy breakfast souffle!
Breakfast is one on my favorite meals! I love bacon, eggs, pancakes, bagels and cream cheese – all of it! On a separate note, I love to entertain and I can throw a killer Brunch – not to mention brunch is one of the easiest meals to make so it is a natural for me! My absolute go-to brunch recipe is this super easy and crazy yummy Easy Egg and Cheese Souffle. I have been making it for years and I have finally learned I need to make two of them because they are gone so fast!
What I especially love about this is you prepare it the night before your brunch and then just pop it in the oven in the morning – easy as pie….or souffle!!
