I was a little surprised to see that this casserole calls for only one egg. I normally make this style of hash-brown casserole with a number of eggs. I'll have to give this a try, since I like this style of breakfast dish. I think I might add a bit of chopped green pepper to this. I'm also wondering how a substitution of bacon for the ham might turn out. It's definitely a dish to try and experiment with.
