Our mom used to make this Ham and Cheese Breakfast Casserole growing up when we would have breakfast for dinner.
I came across the recipe a few weeks ago, and it brought back SO MANY MEMORIES! It is so easy to throw together the morning of, let it sit in the fridge all day, and throw it into the oven right before dinner.
