I'm full of questions to post this morning. I want to make this egg casserole from MSPI Mama for a potluck but want to do all veggies instead of ham. What would you use and how much to substitute for the 1lb of ham? Also, does 4 eggs really seem to be enough? Or do you have a MSPI safe veggie egg casserole you prefer? TIA!

Oh, my disclaimer to ask here instead of commenting on her blog is her post is from 2008.

*Ham and Broccoli Breakfast Bake*

1 lb. ham, cubed
1 (10 oz.) box frozen broccoli cuts, thawed
4 cups frozen hash brown potatoes
1 cup MSPI-friendly baking mix, such as Bisquick
1/4 cup MSPI-friendly margarine, melted
1-3/4 cups rice milk
1 tbsp. dried onion
1 tsp. seasoning salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
4 eggs

Heat oven to 400ºF. Grease rectangular baking dish, 13x9x2 inches. Stir together ham, broccoli and potatoes in baking dish.

Stir together remaining ingredients until blended. Pour into baking dish.

Bake uncovered 45 to 50 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes.

You'd probably just want to put enough to replace the volume of the pound of ham. I'd imagine a pound of ham cubes is maybe 1.5-2 cups of veggies. You could do any combo of mushrooms, spinach, peppers, and onions. Since it has bisquik and rice milk, that should be enough volume of batter.

A pound of ham seems like a lot for 4 eggs. But I'm cheap and eggs are cheaper than ham.

The great thing about a recipe like this is you can kinda open the fridge and dump in what looks/sounds good. I love spinach or cauliflower in egg bakes.

I just had dinner with a friend last week, and she put very small cubes of sweet potato in the egg bake, and now I am planning on using that trick myself.

If I was you, I might add 2-3 more eggs, to make it more egg-y than batter-y, if you see what I am saying.

We would do something like mushrooms and spinach. I would stick with the 4 eggs and add more only if it doesn't seem right. The rice milk is providing a lot of liquid. This seems more like a batter then egg heavy dish.
