Feeling extra cheesy?
With two kinds of cheese (American cheese slices and shredded cheddar) this egg sandwich breakfast casserole is extra cheesy and extra delicious.
But don't be afraid to play around with the kinds of cheese you use.
I'm sure this would be just as delicious with Swiss, Jack, Colby, and maybe even cottage cheese stirred in with the egg mixture.
Don't be afraid to get creative!
