Overnight Breakfast Lasagna
Description
This recipe combines cooked lasagna noodles with crisp bacon, cubed precooked ham, and sautéed onions layered inside a 9x13-inch pan. A smooth cheese sauce made by thickening milk with flour and seasoning is enriched with American cheese. The layering includes noodles, meat, onions, cheddar cheese, and cheese sauce, repeated three times.
The top layer is finished with beaten eggs and Parmesan cheese before refrigerating overnight or baking right away. Baking until the eggs are set and the cheese edges are golden provides a firm yet tender lasagna-style breakfast casserole combining savory proteins with creamy cheese sauce and pasta.
This dish is suitable for make-ahead meals, allowing flavors to meld overnight in the fridge before baking. It serves as a hearty and satisfying breakfast or brunch option.
