Glad to see you've gotten through that nudity phase. This looks like a nice dish and I think I'll try it this week. Sounds good with sausage?

Well, actually .... I'm in mid-hot flash, and there's no dress in sight.
Yeah, the casserole would be great with sausage. It's very versatile.
Enjoy!

Good with cubes of ham throughout, too, and some kind of cooked veg--broccoli, asparagus, even peas. ALso good with frozen Potatoes O'Brien instead of hashbrowns.

You people are determined to get me to thaw that ham, aren't you? We went on a meat-buying spree, and have a whole ham in the basement freezer.
Dammit, I want ham! (it'll take about a month to thaw)

I'm not really a ham person but I do admit enjoying it once in a while. But I'd prefer a pork roast only there's a problem with todays 'new pork' meaning 'extra lean'. I love to make crackling and without a slab of fat, well it's a no go.
