How to make a Ham, Egg, and Cheese Brunch Bake
Ham, egg and cheese brunch bake is loaded with all of my breakfast favourites in one dish. I love that one dish meals like this. They are easy to prepare and require so little clean up. After brunch the last thing I want to do is clean up a messy kitchen, so this is a regular in my rotations for weekends.
This dish combines sauteed onions, fluffy eggs and hashbrowns with smoky ham and loads of cheese to create a dish the entire family will enjoy. I used sour cream in my brunch bake for creamy results. You could also use a heavy cream in this dish for impressive results. No one would ever suspect this dish was prepared in a matter of moments!
