Dutch Babies Recipe

Is this the strangest thing you've ever seen? I thought it was. What a crazy casserole. I guess it's kind of like a souffle.

Thanks to my friend Renee for this delicious breakfast recipe for our Egglands Best Egg-Spect the Best Brunch.  So many fun and delicious egg recipes!

Dutch Babies

* 6 eggs

* 1 1/2 cups milk

* 1 Tbsp. vanilla

* 1 1/2 cups flour

* 3/4 stick melted butter

 * dash of salt

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Melt butter in cake pan.

In a separate bowl, mix eggs, milk, vanilla, flour and salt.  Pour in cake pan and bake for 30 - 35 minutes.

It grows and grows and grows. Like magic =o)

Serve with any toppings you would like: maple syrup, cinnamon and sugar, bacon and cheese, powdered sugar and lemon juice.

This reminds me of a German Pancake my Mom always used to make.  YUM!

Enjoy!

Cheesy Egg and Hashbrown Casserole

One of the best things about casseroles? They reheat perfectly and make excellent leftovers! This casserole is no exception and is fantastic the next day!

My friend Ben (of Ben's Pickled Eggs) brought this amazing casserole to our Egglands Best Egg-spect the Best Brunch.  Doesn't it look delicious?!

Ben does a told of creating in the kitchen and doesn't measure anything.  (How do people cook like that???  I need measurements, folks!)  So these are approximates and can be changed depending on your likes and dislikes.

Cheesy Egg and Hashbrown Casserole

* 1 onion, diced
* 1 green pepper, diced
* 1 red pepper, diced
* 1 cup sliced mushrooms
* 1 cup cooked ham, cubed
* 1 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
* 1 cup cooked sausage, crumbled
* 1 bad shredded hash brown potatoes
* 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
* 8-10 eggs
* 1 cup milk
* salt and pepper to taste

Spray a deep casserole dish (he used a huge pan) with non-stick cooking spray. 

Chop all of your veggies and meats.

Add cooked veggies to the frozen hash browns and put in the bottom of your casserole dish.

Spread the meats evenly over the top of the hash browns.
 
Beat together the eggs and milk.  Add salt and pepper to taste.
 
Pour over meats.

Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 45 minutes.  Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top and return to oven.

Cook another 15 - 30 minutes until firm in the middle.  The bigger the casserole, the longer it will take to cook.

Serve hot and enjoy!

Trisha Yearwood's Chicken Broccoli Casserole

I absolutely love casseroles!  I don't know what it is about them, but they rock my world.  But combine this love with a small amount of pickiness and I have a hard time finding really good casseroles that I love. 

When a co-worker emailed me this recipe I quickly read all the ingredients and did a little "whoo hoo".  I liked everything.  And I was so happy I made it!  It is absolutely delicious!  Really!

Chicken Broccoli Casserole

Source: Trisha Yearwood's Cookbook: "Georgia Cooking in an Oklahoma Kitchen"

* 3-4 cups cooked rice

* 4 cups cooked broccoli cut into "chunks"

* 1 cup sour cream

* 1/2 cup mayonnaise

* 1 Tbsp. lemon juice

* 1 10 ounce can of cream of chicken soup

* 4 cups of grated cheese

* 4 chicken breasts cooked and chopped

* 1/2 tsp. salt

* 1/4 tsp. pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Spray a 9x13 pan with non-stick cooking spray.

Spread cooked rice evenly in pan.  Make a second layer with the cooked broccoli.

In a large mixing bowl mix sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, soup, 1/2 of the grated cheese, chicken, salt and pepper.  Pour over broccoli.

Top with remaining cheese.

Bake 30-40 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

It really is delicious!  And it freezes great!  I put a serving size in a tupperware container and freeze them.  Then for lunch I can take out a container in the morning and microwave it at work for a home cooked, delicious lunch!

Enjoy!

Chicken Cordon Blue Casserole

I think it was right after Easter when I saw this recipe over on Tiffanee's blog, One Crazy Cookie. It looked so good I immediately bookmarked. Oh my! Was it ever. The combination of flavors was incredible and I've made it a couple of times since then!)

It was super easy (which I love) and it tastes fantastic. Two things I love =o) And I made one casserole and then froze individual servings in plastic containers so I could take them to work for lunch. Perfect!

Ingredients:
* 16 oz. bag of frozen hash browns (Tiffanee used 8 oz. but I added more)
* 3 - 4 chicken breasts cooked and cubed
* 1/2 pound ham, cubed
* 8 oz. cream cheese
* 1 can cream of chicken soup
* 2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
* 1/4 tsp. pepper
* 1/4 cup milk

Place hash browns in the bottom of a x13 casserole dish.

Then layer the chicken and ham over the top.

Sprinkle with 1 cup Swiss cheese.

Combine the soup, cream cheese (slightly warm so it's easier to stir), milk and pepper. Spread the creamy mixture over the cheese layer.

(Sorry, I lost that picture) =o(

Sprinkle the rest of the Swiss cheese over the top. (You can freeze it at this point if you would like to.) Or bake at 350 degrees, covered, for 50 minutes. Remove cover and bake for 10 more minutes until bubbly.


Note: It's even better the next day after all the flavors sit.

Enjoy!
