How to Make It
Prep the slow cooker: Spray the inside of your slow cooker with non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
Layer it up: Spread the frozen French fries in an even layer at the bottom.
Whisk the eggs: In a bowl, beat the eggs until smooth, then pour over the fries.
Add the protein and cheese: Sprinkle diced ham evenly, then top with shredded cheddar.
Cook: Cover and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted and golden.
Serve: Let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Slice and enjoy!
Serving Suggestions
This breakfast casserole pairs beautifully with a fruit salad for a refreshing contrast or sautéed spinach to add a nutritious touch. Craving something more indulgent? Add crispy bacon or sausage on the side. Finish it off with a spoonful of sour cream, chopped green onions or chives, and a steaming cup of coffee.
Customize It Your Way
Vegetarian version: Skip the ham and toss in some sautéed bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms.
Add some heat: Mix in red pepper flakes or a splash of hot sauce with the eggs.
Change up the cheese: Try mozzarella, Swiss, or pepper jack for different flavor profiles.
Swap the protein: Use cooked crumbled sausage or crispy bacon instead of ham for a new twist.
