    Christmas Eve Casserole

    Many breakfast casserole recipes are called christmas morning casseroles, but I like to call this a Christmas Eve Casserole because you make it the night before you enjoy it!

    This is one of my favourite recipes, except I make it with back bacon (very lean with good flavour) and in layers. I look forward to making it differently now. As for making for only 2, I suggest making 1/4 of the recipe: 6 oz sausage, 3/4 cup skim milk, 3/4 cup cheese, 2-3 eggs, 3/4 slice bread, 1/8 tsp dry mustard

    If you can divide, you should have no trouble adjusting to the amount you want to make.

    Delicious breakfast, easy, and if you do make the whole 12 servings (not really twelve between me pregnant and my 6 foot 6 big man lol, it is very good for several days just rewarming leftovers in the oven. :)

    Recipe sounds good, but I agree with pidgettb 2015375. Twelve servings is too much.

    I make 1/3 recipes all the time. For this one use a 8 by 4 inch loaf pan.

    It is easily reduced to 1/3 the size. 8 oz. of sausage. 1 cup milk 1 cup cheese 3 eggs 1 slice whole grain bread a pinch of dry mustard. Servings 3 to 4 ( depending*) * In my family serving size would be for 2

    This recipe sounds wonderful, but is there no way that the whole site can't put a calculator on so that we could figure out how much or how little to add for fewer than 12 people? It would be fine to make enough to last a bit, but we are an empty nest couple. Surely I'm not the only one who would like to be able to reduce the size of the recipe to feed less than a family.
