It seems like most of us only have breakfast casseroles at a brunch or around the holidays. Why we seem to save them for special occasions seems kind of silly. They take minimal work, and can be prepared ahead. You get an entire hearty breakfast in one dish, and it's way better than driving thru, or grabbing a donut. And there's no rule that says you can't make this the night before a serve it for dinner! Add some cinnamon rolls or fresh fruit and you've got a great meal for any time of day and any occasion.
