Slow Cooker Egg Casserole
This easy egg casserole will be your go-to breakfast for parties, holidays and even weekly meal prep. You can make this on Monday and eat it all week! The best part is you can add or take away any ingredients you want.
Want to make it vegetarian, skip the ham and swap for more veggies. Spice it up a little with a can of diced green chilis. The options are endless! Since I eat this almost every week I have made tons of versions of this recipe and listed them below. Feel free to pick one of these versions or make your very own.
How to Make Slow Cooker Egg Casserole
Step 1. In a separate bowl, combine eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Mix to combine.
Step 2. Layer bottom of slow cooker with potatoes. Pour egg mixture into slow cooker. Sprinkle the onions, bell peppers, bacon, and cheese over the top of the eggs. Use a spoon to gently combine.
Step 3. Cover and cook on low for 3 hours. Do not open slow cooker during cooking.
Step 4. Cut into slices and serve!
Different Versions of Slow Cooker Egg Casserole
Meaty Trio- Add ham, bacon, and sausage. This is my husband’s favorite!
Mexican– Use a Mexican Shredded Cheese blend and add a 4.5 oz can of green chilis. Top with salsa and sour cream when serving.
Veggie Delight- Add mushrooms, zucchini, and spinach. Really any veggies! I have also done asparagus in another version.
Greek– Chop up kalamata olives and mix in with veggies. Top with feta cheese when serving.
Great for Holidays
Don’t forget to use this for any holidays because it is a perfect dump-and-go recipe. I like to make it on Easter and Christmas because I can prep it the night before and then turn it on right when we wake up. Once all the craziness of the morning is over breakfast is ready for everyone including me. And as always with a slow cooker meal, you only have one dish to clean up!
Need A New Crock Pot?
My favorite is this Crock Pot 7 quart Programmable Slow Cooker. First and foremost, I love being able to set the timer in case I’m not home when the food is finished cooking and it just switches to warm. Plus you can lock the lid and just carry it to a party. Not only is it easy to carry but also you will never lose another Tupperware or serving dish again at a potluck party!
