How to Make Italian Egg Casserole in a Slow Cooker
Cris here.
I love me some breakfast casseroles. Egg based breakfast casseroles are generally a great low carb option for family breakfasts and holidays that everyone loves– low carb or not. I also love them in my camper kitchen because they give us a great start to the day before going on a hike or whatever the adventure is for the day.
Some egg casseroles can tend to taste similar, but THIS recipe has a unique flavor and is a great way to switch up your typical brunch casserole routine.
