Tasty and my 13 yr old was able to pull this together while I did Christmas stuff. We used the bagged cubed bread meant for stuffing as a shortcut.
0 HelpfulI made this for a big group Christmas breakfast. It was a fantastic brunch item and people raved about. This is my new favorite breakfast casserole. And yes, it took a lot longer to bake until done, so add at least 20 minutes, especially if you make for a crowd. Fruit salad is awesome.
0 HelpfulThis is the second time I have had this one and I love it! My sister made it for me once and she keeps it as a quick breakfast for a whole week. I put green peppers (personal preference) in mine this past week and it was great. I also recommend maple sausage for a little extra sweetness.
0 HelpfulThis was a hit. Everyone loved the casserole. We even had enough leftover for breakfast the next day. First time making a fruit salad like this and it turned out wonderful.
