Slimmed Down 'wifesaver' Casserole image

Why harden your arteries with mounds of sausage when you could make a lighter, healthier alternative? This turns out fantastic and is a lot easier on the waistline than the traditional favourite.

CHRISTMAS MORNING WIFE SAVER (BREAKFAST CASSEROLE)



Christmas Morning Wife Saver (Breakfast Casserole) image

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!
