I made a few changes, instead of the ham/canadian bacon, I used a roll of sauage and crumbed in some cooked bacon. I also used the O'Brien hash browns with the red & green peppers instead of the plain hash browns. Was quite a hit at the office for a breakfast casserole as well as at home with my family. I will definitely use this recipe again in the near future.

I have made it with both ham and bulk breakfast sausage. I like it with breakfast sausage better. I buy a pound of the bulk breakfast sausage and brown it first. I usually make 2 casseroles to bring to the office: one with meat and one without meat. Crowd pleaser! I give it 5 stars!!!
