"This dish is perfect for potlucks because it looks so pretty on the table and, best of all, it can be made ahead of time. Although I don't live in the country, my family and I love the country flavor of this hearty egg casserole."

I made two of these casseroles for a large group. I made one according to the directions, but for the other, I substituted a 1 - lb bag of frozen broccoli and decreased the milk to a half cup. Both casseroles got rave reviews, but people really flipped over the one with the broccoli.

I made this dish the night before my Marine husband was coming home from a long deployment. When we walked in the door at 4am, he was ready to eat and he went nuts over this dish. I really think this is the best casserole I have ever eaten. Thank you

Minor variations: I added 2T of flour to the m.j. cheese and I added 4 extra eggs and 1/2C milk (I made it for 12) because it just looked too dry. I made it for some dearly loved Sunday School teachers to thank them for being so wonderful. It prepared easily and was well received.
