This is a really nice simple recipe with a lot of taste mileage for the work =) I made it once with ham and cheddar (plus a bit of fresh parsley), and the next time with browned and crumbled sage sausage and Swiss. Both times I only used about 1 tbsp. butter, which I used to generously grease the pan. I also used 6 eggs. I have made innumerable egg casseroles, and have waited a long time for a recipe I actually like...this is "The One"!

This was great! We wanted something other then the same ol thing for breakfast and this was it! I did not let it set over night, and it still turned out great. I added a little bit of onion green and red pepper. Next time I will not put as much butter, but we loved it! :)

This turned out GREAT! As most of us do - I try to cut back here and there. Where it called for butter I used "I cant believe its not butter" and I made my own croutons (baked). I heard its healthier to do so (store bought ones are fried. I used low fat cheese & milk! YOU WOULD NEVER KNOW! Great recipe..... Thank You

Wow! My whole family loved this and ate every last crumb! I made a vegetarian version with a sausage substitute, and it turned out great. I could see this becoming a family favorite right away. I did increase the croutons so they pretty much covered the bottom of the pan, but I left the other measurements as in the original recipe.

Made this for a house-ful of people and everyone loved it. Only change I made was to use day old french bread cut into chunks instead of the croutons.

This was very easy to prepare and so good.

I love a recipe that is a base for making it your own. Instead of croûtons, I toasted some bread like others suggested. Also, I played with sweet and spicy tastes by adding one piece of french toast (cubed) to the based and topping the egg mix with chopped jalapeños. Yum! Thanks!

I really liked this...but the kids did not. I used buttermilk and bacon. I was hoping they would like it, it was so easy and filling. Oh well, back to the drawing board.

Made this for a family get-together. Left out the mustard powder but added Garlic Powder, Dried Minced Onion, and Red Pepper Flakes (a dash or two each). Made a double batch and there wasn't any left!

Great recipe! I tinkered with it ever so slightly, as other reviewers suggested...5 eggs instead of 4, less butter and ham, more croutons...and knowing me, probably more cheese! The resulting casserole was very yummy! I used seasoned croutons and mild cheddar cheese, but it might be interesting to use different flavors to mix it up a bit. I think I might even try bacon next time instead of ham! Thanks for the recipe!

This was excellent, wonderful flavor. I cooked it in a loaf pan and had no trouble with too dry. The boyfriend actually commented on how tasty it was, and he's not into eggs! I made it as stated, except had no croutons so I just cut up a piece of toast. Nommy!

I made this casserole for Christmas morning. It was fantastic. I had eight people here and they all loved it. I made a separate small casserole with egg beaters and less ham for my father-in-law who has to watch his cholesterol and salt intake. I followed the advice of the first reviewer and added more egg. I also used the butter Pam instead. It was perfect. I am going to continue to make this for a quick morning breakfast as it was also great reheated.

I give it four stars because it is easy, low calorie (especially as far as traditional breakfast foods/casseroles go), and can be made ahead of time. As a result of those factors, I make it all the time. As far as taste goes, I've had better, but it's worth it to me to cut the calories and cook with ease.

I was too tired to prepare it the night before but I don't think that mattered. Wegmans only had maple-cured ham that day and that sweetness did not work with the savory, i.e., use plain ham only. Overall, my guests liked it, but it was really nothing special.

I served this Christmas morning and it got rave reviews; just about everyone had seconds. I followed the suggestions and reduced the butter to two to three tablespoons, increased the croutons (essentially having one layer of croutons at the bottom of the dish) and cheese by 20%. Additionally, I sprayed the casserole dish with a cooking spray which kept it from sticking too badly. I doubled the recipe (8 eggs) and found that an 8x12 pan worked fairly well; a little smaller would also be fine but would probably take longer to bake. The next time I'll probably add some diced red or green peppers for color, and perhaps some chopped scallions. I'm very salt sensitive and found the recipe a bit salty given the amount of ham, cheese and croutons, but it was not excessively so. If you really dislike salty foods, I suggest using low sodium cheese and/or making your own croutons.

Was really good but needed to cook a little more than the recipe stated.
