Hey hey!
Sorry I've been MIA since last Friday. I've been super busy the past few days and just now got a chance to pop in and say 'hello'!
I have a yummy breakfast recipe to share with you all today!
Last weekend while my parents were in town I decided to whip up an easy overnight breakfast casserole. My mom would always make breakfast casseroles when I would stay the weekend at their house, so I decided to keep the tradition alive. Plus, it makes a fairly large casserole, so breakfast would be taken care of for the whole weekend.
This recipe is so versatile so you can really add anything you'd like to it to make it your own. It also keeps so well in the fridge for a number of days.
