Hillberg & Berk Mother’s Day Giveaway & My Famous Breakfast Casserole!
Mother’s Day is one of those days I always look forward to, I love the idea of dedicating an entire day to the one who has truly shaped who I am today. Typically my sister Heather, who lives in Edmonton, flies home for the weekend and we host a big ladies brunch! We prefer to do this rather than going out, it’s just much more casual and relaxed… waiting in line for an overpriced buffet really isn’t our style.
Once we have filled up on mimosas, coffee, and my famous (well I’ve claimed it to be famous) breakfast casserole, we usually hit up the greenhouses. Our day is typically pretty casual focussing on the important things: big laughs, good food, and being together!
I’m not sure how you’re celebrating your mom or motherly figure this year but if you’re hosting a brunch I highly suggest this casserole! My lovely friend, Erin suggested I make it last year when I told her I was hosting a big crew of women for brunch. It is EASY, quick, super delicious, and has now become a tradition, thanks Erin!
INGREDIENTS:
- 8 plain croissants
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 4 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
- 1/2 cup sliced green onion
- 8 eggs

DIRECTIONS
Split croissants in half and place bottoms cut side up in one layer in a casserole dish.
Melt the butter in a frying pan.
Saute mushrooms and onions until tender and the liquid has evaporated. Set aside.
Beat together the eggs and milk.
Pour over half croissants, layer mushroom mixture and cheese on top, them pour the remaining liquid over top.
Position croissant tops over the bottoms.
Let stand over night in the fridge- don’t skip this step!!!

Have you tried substituting the mushrooms for anything? I’m not the biggest mushroom fan 😐
Holly
Hmmm, I haven’t, however… what about bacon?!! I bet bacon instead of mushrooms might be delicious! Try frying it up until its very crispy then sprinkle it in place of the mushrooms… yyummmmmm!

Me too!!! I love a good casserole, especially this one as you whip it up the night before and just throw it in the oven in the morning!
