CHRISTMAS MORNING WIFE SAVER (BREAKFAST CASSEROLE)

I certainly cannot take credit for this recipe but it is a Christmas classic. There are lots of little things to personalize this recipe. I have suggested using red and green bell peppers because they are Christmas colors! I also use grated cheese and spread it over the Canadian bacon instead of cheese slices. I have used regular bacon in this recipe, but I find that it overpowers the rest of the flavors. Make this tasty breakfast dish the night before and just pop it in the oven on Christmas morning; let it cook while you open gifts and sip your rum-spiked coffee!

WIFE SAVER

An easy version of what my Mother always called "Christmas Morning Wife Saver". Easy to prepare and cooks just long enough for the kids to open their presents. I like to serve it in the evening as a psuedo quiche. The addition of sage to the ground turkey makes it taste a lot like a sage sausage.
