Looking for a new breakfast recipe is always a challenge. So when I found this one on a web site and was intrigued by the extra ingredient of Krispy cereal, I had to try it! It was super easy to prepare in mass quantities and baking/serving was a snap too! Bonus was that my kids ate and ate and ate it! It was even good warmed up the next day! Sounds strange to be putting cereal into a casserole, but they actually take the place of the bread cubes and give it good texture. It was a hit all the way around!
