Golden, crunchy on the outside—tender, cheesy, and savory within. These bite-sized wonders pack all the comfort of a loaded breakfast casserole into a grab-and-go snack. With no thawing, no fancy tools, and just 10 minutes of hands-on time, they’re the kind of recipe that feels impressive but isn’t. Inspired by Midwestern potluck staples and Sunday morning traditions, they’re hearty, satisfying, and endlessly adaptable.
🥓 “I served these at my daughter’s baby shower—people came back three times,” one home cook shared. “Even the ‘I don’t eat breakfast food’ cousin asked for the recipe.”
