Ingredients
– 8 eggs
– 1 cup milk
– salt and pepper to taste
– 2 cups diced ham
– 1 cup shredded American cheese
Instructions
1. Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the oven is ready by the time you finish mixing the ingredients.
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. This will create a smooth base for your casserole.
3. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust according to your preference.
4. Add the diced ham and shredded American cheese to the mixture, stirring gently to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
5. Grease a medium-sized baking dish with a light coating of olive oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
6. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the casserole is set in the middle and lightly golden on top.
8. Remove from the oven and let it cool for five minutes before slicing and serving. This resting period helps the casserole firm up and makes it easier to serve.
