Probably the reason we all go so haywire at Christmas time with the endless unrestrained and often silly buying of gifts is that we don't quite know how to put our love into words. - Harlan Miller

wow, wish someone would serve this to me Christmas morning. I sure could take to that.
Yeah, and if he were a buff cowboy...all the better!
This sounds yummy!! Do you think it would hurt to add mushrooms? I'm definitely going to make this.
Thanks, Anna Kathryn!

Actually, mushrooms added would be good, I think.
I was looking for something to make Christmas morning.

Loretta, this is really good dish. My daughter's like it better than the sausage casserole I make.
I've saved this recipe. I use cottage cheese when I cook scrambled eggs, so this will definitely work for me :-)
I'm so glad I caught the fact I left taht out! I think it would be okay without the cottage cheese, but better with it, I'm sure.
What I made tonight, will taste different anyway. I had mozzerella cheese instead of monteray jack....go figure.
I used to make a breakfast French bread strata on XMAS eve and pop it in the oven in the morning. Now I'm pre-diabetic and doing the low-carb thing, so the strata is persona non grata. (Or would that be persona non strata?) Anyway, this looks like a great substitute!
