The Amish Egg Bake is refrigerated overnight so it is ready to place in the oven in the morning. I really like is that it has no bread in it so it is gluten-free! Also, you don't feel like you're overdosing on carbs if you serve muffins, rolls or scones with it. Lots of variations with this one basic recipe!

Ingredients:

1 pound sliced bacon (diced, ham (diced) or sausage ( I've used Jimmy Dean's)

1 medium sweet onion, chopped

6 eggs, lightly beaten

4 cups frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed

2 cups (8 oz. ) shredded cheddar cheese

1-1/2 cups (12 oz.) cottage cheese

1-1/4 cups shredded Swiss cheese

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

Optional items: red or green peppers, roasted red peppers, mushrooms (sauté with onions) or sun-dried tomatoes

In a large skillet, cook bacon or sausage and onion until done, drain. (I used turkey ham so just sautéed the onions separately and added the turkey ham) In a bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; stir...
