Make-ahead Christmas Morning Scramble

vintage christmas baking.jpg This is the Curtis traditional Christmas Breakfast Scramble. I make this on Christmas Eve afternoon so it's ready to pull out of the refrigerator on Christmas morning to cook while we unwrap presents. We usually have croissants and orange juice blended with strawberries and ginger ale.

Christmas Breakfast Scramble
  • 12 eggs, beaten
  • ½ c. flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • 1 lb. grated cheddar/Jack cheese
  • ½ c. melted butter
  • 2 4-oz. cans diced green chiles
  • 1 pt. small curd cottage cheese
  • a large package ham, bacon, or sausage
  • mushrooms, artichokes, green pepper, chilis, green onions (you choose)

Cook meat, Mix all ingredients together. Place mixture in 9x13 pan, buttered. Refrigerate.

Next morning, bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes.

We also have fruit salad and croissants (or lox and bagels) and big pitchers of orange juice mixed with sugar-free ginger ale.

This keeps us pretty full until the afternoon. Our Christmas dinner for the past 21 years has been Chinese food - a tradition that started when I was on bedrest while pregnant with Sophia - who was born December 28. It was so nice to relax all day and not worry about meal preparation, we decided to continue keeping it simple.

Love,

I cut the recipe in half, used bacon and added green onions to it. It was plenty for our growing family of four and everyone was full. Thank you for sharing! I posted it on my facebook page giving your webpage credit. :)
