Crock Pot Breakfast

One of the things my mom got me for Christmas this year is the "Fix-It and Forget-It Recipes for Entertaining" crock pot recipe book. She knows how much I love to use my crock pot and this book is just perfect for me :) Last night, I made a breakfast dish that cooked overnight and was ready this morning when we got up. It's the Western Omelet Casserole. It's so simple and was pretty tasty! Here's the recipe:

32 oz. bag frozen hash brown potatoes
1 lb. cooked ham, cubed
1 med. onion, diced
1 1/2 c. shredded cheddar cheese
12 eggs
1 c. milk
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper


Layer one-third of frozen potatoes, ham, onions and cheese in the bottom of the crock pot. Repeat two times.

Beat together eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Pour over mixture in the slow cooker.

Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours.

*Note* This makes a ton! I didn't reduce the recipe because I wasn't sure if it would change the time or not. Plenty of leftovers!!!
