My cooking philosophy is to keep it “healthy and easy.”

Recipes at Hammers N Hugs will include all-natural ingredients that can often be frozen and have been tested and approved by friends and family!

Smokey Ham and Cheese Egg Casserole Recipe

This recipe is a Hammers N Hugs modification of Joanna Gaines’ “Savory Ham and Cheese Bread Pudding with Tomato Hollandaise” from her fabulous Magnolia Table Cookbook .

For those of you that know me or have been with us here at Hammers N Hugs, then you know that I rarely follow a recipe and usually find myself venturing out on my own.

I feel strongly about using all-natural ingredients and will also substitute for more nutrient-dense alternatives where I can.

It’s no surprise then that plain Greek yogurt found it’s way into this delicious recipe.

I would love to hear what you think.

Bon appetit!
