Ok, this recipe is nothing short of amazing. Each time I make it for a group, an event…my husband, I get rave reviews. This past week we celebrated my Mom’s birthday with a weekend-long celebration with family and friends. The final meal of the weekend was one of my favorites, brunch. My mom, who has had this delight before, asked me to make it for the group. It is actually a recipe from my Mother-In-Law that she makes each year for Christmas. It is large enough to feed a group, and incorporates all the major brunch staples; eggs, cheese, and hash browns. The cottage cheese helps keep the casserole light and fluffy, and its great with some ketchup! To all my family members that ate this last weekend, here’s your recipe!

A Measure of Success 
Thanks for sharing. Can this be made the night before? Thanks!
did you get a response on your questions? I also wanted to know if I can make it the night before. I know my SS class will love it
This a by far the best egg casserole I have ever eaten. I have already fixed it twice and am taking it to a brunch. It last well in the frig and I have frozen it in individual mini bundt pans. I believe this is a 6 star rating.

Made this and loved it, so did my picky eaters!
I made this today for lunch. It’s a cold winter day but it was just what I needed. I made it exactly to the directions you gave and it came out perfectly. Thank you.
Hello. Thank you for the recipe. It is in the oven right now and I can’t wait to taste it. I added a small amount of garlic powder so I hope it doesn’t overwhelm the dish. I just love these old recipes.
Best egg dish I’ve ever eaten, I made this a lot in muffin tins and freeze it. Taste just like I made it every time.
