it has no name. it is "the other" breakfast casserole because, well, see, when i was growing up my mom always made eggs portugal, a sausage and egg breakfast casserole that is delicious. (it deserves its own post it is so yummy.) despite its namelessness (is that even a word?), this casserole is also deee-licious. with the addition of the whipping cream and parmesan, it is reminiscent of eggs benedict with a bechamel-type sauce. when i first had it, i was enamored with the uncracked, whole eggs on top. what a splendid way to eat a breakfast casserole.
i got this recipe not too long ago from a friend of my husband's aunt. sounds distant, but it's really not. she lives here in kansas city, so we were invited over for brunch one glorious sunday morning. it is a perfect casserole for a brunch or better yet, a holiday morning breakfast like easter. i have a few more great easter morning breakfast ideas coming up in the next couple weeks, so stay tuned and happy brunching!
10-12 slices ham
8 slices swiss cheese
1 dozen eggs (whole)
dash of kosher salt
1/2 pint whipping cream
1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
