Comments: This is actually a combination
of two recipes that I found in a cookbook called Favorite Brand Name 3 Books in
1 – One-Dish; Slow Cooker; Casseroles.
It’s a wonderful cookbook. The
changes I made was to use a frozen pie crust.
I baked it in the hot oven until browned. I then added the layers (bacon from another
recipe). Cut the eggs down to 4 and the
milk down to ¾ cup, since the pie crust was smaller. I baked it the same. This dish was so good that I could have eaten
the whole thing myself, but I didn’t and shared it with some of my
friends. Using the pie crust it cuts the
servings down to 6. This is a must try
dish!
