Breakfast casseroles filled with potatoes, cheese, ham, and eggs have been a family favorite for as many years as I can remember. These muffin cup sized breakfast casseroles are an awesome make-ahead meal that freezes and reheats perfectly. (That is if you can manage to actually save a few for the freezer!)
