That coffee cake is good, isn't it!! A pretty table and I like your casserole -- it looks yummy! For our special weekend breakfasts I forget about egg casseroles -- you've reminded me that perhaps next weekend, an egg casserole (YOUR egg casserole) should be on the menu at Linderhof!
That breakfast casserole looks so yummy...but then again...anything with bacon is yummmy!

Thanks for being so faithful to ON THE MENU MONDAY! I so appreciate everything you post!
Oh I love these breakfast casseroles. I will try this one too, and having it with FRUIT sounds perfect to me. I love eggs and fruit. Maybe this coming weekend I will take time to cook this and ENJOY it thoroughly! Thanks for the recipe, Pat. XO, Pinky
