I never had eggs cook in a crock before, it would be interesting to see how it comes out.
Breakfast Potatoes

4 potatoes, sliced
1 onion, sliced fairly thin
4 ounces cheese, grated
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
4 rashers bacon, fried or microwaved, or
bacon bits from a jar (sprinkled on liberally)

Layer in crock pot in this order: Potatoes, butter, onions, bacon; then, cheese. Repeat. Cook on LOW for 8 to 10 hours.

Serves 6.
HI Jan, the breakfast potatoes feeds 6 and the breakfast casserole will feed at least eight people.
I will definitely try this. I cook a breakfast casserole in the oven but never thought to try it in a crockpot. My kids will all love this. I usually use sausage links cut up in pieces and turkey bacon,
You may have just saved me. I was trying to figure out how to feed breakfast to two young men who will be staying here for a few days this week. I leave for work at 6:45 am and can't be later this week due to testing. I really wanted them to have a hot breakfast not just cereal and toast. THANK YOU for this...I am so excited to try it.
My sister made this recipe over the holidays and she said it was awesome! Ihaven't tried it yet but may do it for my son's high school graduation in May.
I love this Recipe - only I used some slices of bread on the bottom - used one that has non stick coating on- and temps vary from 1 to 5 - I used low.
What is cool is that I made this in the hotel room, the night before- so we could eat a good breakfast- the morning of my son's BC graduation - in Sept 1997. We had all our kids and my parents with us - us in a mini van - that seated 9 people and folks in their car. When going to Great Lakes - on a really tight budget with 4 kids to see Jon. It was like the Beverly Hillbillies or Ma and Pa Kettle go to Great Lakes.

I use this recipe often for Easter Sunrise Brunch or when we have a house full for graduations and family events - this also works to put in a 9x13 pan and pop in the oven for 30 to 40 min at about 350. Make the night before - and everyone can eat as they get ready.
