{yummy} gluten-free breakfast casserole

sunday was cloudy and deary out in northern virginia. but at the riner household the holiday spirit sure was in the air! ;-)

i held my holiday brunch and baubles event, inviting my friends to do some last minute stella & dot christmas shopping while laughing, eating, and drinking fireside. sure beats braving the chaotic malls!

when planning, i wanted to provide yummy and hearty brunch food that was easy for me to make. this time of year, it never seems like i have enough time. so a 3 dish meal that i could whip up before my guests arrived was definitely on the menu.

i got the following recipe from my friend kim and it was delish! what makes it even better is that it's celiac-friendly! so dive in and eat up.

1 lb. bacon, diced
1 sweet onion, diced
4 c. frozen shredded hash browns, thawed
9 eggs, lightly beaten
2 c. shredded cheddar cheese
1.5 c. small curd cottage cheese
1.25 c. shredded swiss cheese

preheat oven to 350 and grease a 9x13 baking dish.

cook bacon and onion in a pan until evenly browned, then drain. mix all ingredients remaining ingredients along with bacon-onion mixture in a large bowl and pour into baking dish.

bake in oven for 40-50 minutes or until eggs are set and cheese is melted. then broil for 5 minutes until top is browned and crispy.

eat and enjoy!

  2. The party on Sunday was great! For those of you out there who haven't checked out Stella and Dot, you need to!

    Your brunch was delicious too! My sister has a gluten allergy and always appreciates a GF meal that also tastes great. Your readers better hope you post your Apple Dip recipe next!

    Looking forward to the next party :)
