I’m looking for a breakfast recipe for valentines day that I can make ahead of time.?

I would like to find a recipe, probably a casserole that I can assemble either tonight or tomorrow morning and be able to pop in the oven valentine’s day morning. I’d prefer something with potatoes or hasbrowns, most of the recipes I’ve seen have bread or breadcrumbs, which im not a fan of. Thanks!

Potato and Ham Casserole
1 1/2 lbs. cooked ham, diced
3 green peppers, seeded and cut into strips
1/2 pt. milk
salt and pepper to taste
6 raw potatoes, peeled and sliced
2 medium size onions, sliced
4 oz. grated cheese
Butter

Butter a baking dish, then cover bottom with a layer of potatoes, top with a layer of onions, a layer of peppers, and a layer of ham. Repeat this procedure until the dish is full, ending with a layer of potatoes. Beat egg with milk, season to taste and add to the casserole. Dot with butter. Bake at 350 degrees F for 1 1/2 hours. Sprinkle with grated cheese and return to the oven (which you can shut off now) long enough for the cheese to melt.

Potato and Egg Bake

1/2 tsp. butter
1 1/2 c mashed potatoes
4 eggs
1 Tbsp. grated Cheddar cheese
1 tsp. paprika
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp pepper

Grease a 9" pie pan with butter. Spread the mshed potatoes evenly in the bottom of the pan. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate till the next morning if you’d like. Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F.
Make 4 evenly spaced indentations in the potatoes and break an egg into each. Sprinkle the potatoes and eggs with cheese, paprika, salt and pepper. Bake for 10 minutes until the eggs are set and the cheese melts. Serves 4.

This one is fancier but also more challenging:

Party Potato Knishes

3 cups mashed potatoes
1 envelope dried onion soup mix
1/8 tsp. black pepper
Pinch of paprika
1 – 17 1/4 oz.pkg. frozen puff pastry sheets (2 sheets, thawed)
Water
Shortening to grease pans.

Prepare mashed potatoes, keeping a thick consistency. Add soup mix, eggs, pepper and paprika. Mix well. Divide each pastry sheet in half. Roll each half into rectangle aproximately 14 x 7 inches. Spread one fourth of the filling over each piece of pastry. Highly moisten seam edges with water and roll lengthwise to form a long strudel. Cut into slices about 3/4 inch thick. Press edges to seal. Wrap in plastic wrap and freeze. Arrange slices on lightly greased baking sheet. Bake in pre-heated 400 degree F oven for 10 minutes. Reduce oven to 350 degrees and bake additional 10 minutes or until golden brown. The knishes also freeze well after baking. Makes about 32 knishes.

    Takes a little more work but it’s worth it. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula-deen/hash-brown-quiche-recipe/index.html
    I would definitely add in the red pepper (very valentiney) along the rest of the optional ingredients. http://www.barbarabakes.com/2010/01/breakfast-hashbrown-casserole.html

    Here is a wonderful recipe for a breakfast cassarole, it does use bread but I’d bet i would be really good if you threw in a layer of hash browns, the best thing about this dish is that you assemble it a day ahead of time.
