This is a simple and yummy breakfast! Prepare everything the night before and pop in the oven in the morning for a delicious and glamorous breakfast. Great for Sundays! If you have a ‘delayed start’ option on your oven, you can pull it from the fridge, pop in the oven, set it to bake and be done when you get home from church, and walk out the door. It smells GREAT when you walk into the house!
