For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of smoked paprika or a dash of hot sauce to the egg mixture. Feel free to substitute different types of cheese based on your preference. Monterey Jack, Havarti, or Colby Jack would all work well. If you're short on time, you can skip the overnight refrigeration, but the flavors will be more developed if you allow the casserole to sit. Serve with a side of fresh fruit, a green salad, or a warm croissant for a complete and satisfying brunch.
