We had the honor of speaking at the Regional Extension Association of Family and Consumer Sciences Holiday Meeting and they served this amazing Holiday Ham Casserole. Shelley and I were really surprised that we found such a unique breakfast casserole that neither of us had tried before.
It was promoted as a heart healthy recipe too as it was made with whole wheat bread. We really enjoyed the topping which was made with corn flakes. I also loved that it was a ham casserole because I always serve ham at Christmas and I think this would be an amazing way to use the leftovers!
To prepare preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spread ½ teaspoon butter on one side of each piece of bread (tip, melt the butter and it is easy to brush on). Place one-half of the buttered bread slices in a well greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Top each with a slice of the cheese and ham.
Place the remaining bread slices buttered side up on the top of the ham. Beat the eggs, milk, and dry mustard in a bowl. Pour over the bread. Chill for 8-10 hours. Sauté' the mushrooms in a 1 tablespoon butter in a nonstick skillet until tender. Spread over the bread. Mix the cornflakes and ½ cup melted butter in a bowl. Sprinkle over the top. Bake for 45 minutes.
We hope you enjoy this delicious Holiday Ham Breakfast Casserole. It is perfect for Christmas morning.

I notice you use dry mustard, interesting. I wonder how it works in sweet potato casserole. Gotta try it and see.

This is great for popping in the oven really early Thanksgiving morning so I can feed the troops and then get started on cooking dinner. Thanks!
