Can you freeze breakfast casseroles?
Do you cover breakfast casserole when baking?
I bake this breakfast casserole uncovered.
Can you reheat a breakfast casserole?
When it’s time to reheat, allow the dish to come to room temperature before putting it into a hot oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Cover a leftover egg-, potato- or meat-based breakfast casserole with a piece of foil so the moisture will not escape and to ensure even heating.
You can also watch me make this on Good Day Marketplace!

My husband made this for Christmas morning and we both love it. We enjoyed it so much that he is going to make it again for New Years morning but we are going to try it with ham and garlic and onion powder. I can’t wait!!

Substituted sausage for cooked bacon and added garlic & onion powder, salt and pepper.
It was good but next time I am going to try it with goetta.
