I wasn’t sure what else to do with my leftover Thanksgiving stuffing. Don’t get me wrong, I can eat leftover stuffing for a while and not get tired of it. But each year, I seem to make a few metric tons of stuffing and eventually you have to do something creative with the leftovers.
This is a great recipe to make either for a crowd and/or for some pre-made meals for the week ahead when you don’t have time to make breakfast before leaving for work. The best part about this recipe is you have already done most of the work!
The only ingredients are your leftover stuffing, eggs, a little milk (optional), cheese, and some chopped green onions. Of course, you can always add whatever else you may want. So, the next time you need to feed a crowd for breakfast, consider this breakfast casserole!

Ingredients

Break up the stuffing into a baking dish
Scramble the eggs in a large bowl and whisk in the milk
Pour the eggs into the baking dish
