Last year when we visited my Brother in law and Sister in law she made a breakfast casserole (the night before) and put it in the refrigerator overnight. The next morning she popped it in the oven while getting ready for work and it wasn't long before we had a delicious breakfast with no early morning rush. It was hot, had everything in it we wanted and ready to eat before we took off. I'm sharing some of our favorites here with you. These are great to make for holidays and events and can be made ahead of time and frozen. Just thaw out overnight and pop them in the oven in the morning. They'll think you were up before dawn :)
