Breakfast Casserole

I found this recipe online, added a few adjustments and made it for a Breakfast Potluck at the office. I cooked this casserole in a Nesco electric roaster and it produced enough for 25 people (smaller servings). This recipe will easily feed 10 hungry people as the main breakfast dish.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. chopped ham
• 3 cups frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups (12 oz.) low-moisture cheddar cheese
• 1 chopped red bell pepper
• 8 chopped artichoke halves (frozen or jar or canned, packed in water)
• 8 asparagus spears
• 6 large eggs + 6 egg whites, beaten
• 2 cups milk

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350º F. Lightly grease a 13 x 9 baking pan.
2. Cook ham in skillet until warmed thoroughly; set aside.
3. Place potatoes in the baking dish, sprinkle with salt.
4. Layer ham, cheese, red pepper, artichokes and asparagus.
5. Combine beaten eggs and egg whites with milk; stir well, and pour over layered caserole.
6. Bake for about 50 minutes or until set in the middle.
