Ingredients

Savory Casserole:

Cooking spray

10 large eggs

3 cups milk

1 (10.75-ounce) can cream of mushroom soup

2 (5-ounce) bags large-cut croutons (recommended: Chatham Village)

1 (8-ounce) package diced ham

2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Mushroom and Onion Jam:

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 (12-ounce) bags frozen chopped onions, thawed

2 (8-ounce) packages sliced mushrooms

1 tablespoon sugar

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Tomato and Basil Salad:

1 (15-ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained

1/2 cup prepared pesto

1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Avocado and Black Bean Salsa:

1 pint prepared guacamole

1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained

1 canned jalapeno, finely chopped

1 tablespoon lime juice

Directions

  1. For the casserole: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9 by 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well blended. Add the croutons and toss until well coated. Add the remaining ingredients and mix. Pour into the prepared baking dish and bake until browned and puffy, 45 to 50 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
  2. For the onion and mushroom jam: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions, mushrooms, sugar, vinegar and salt and pepper, to taste. Mix everything together and cook for 5 minutes. Turn the heat to low and cook, stirring often to prevent burning, until the onions are caramelized, 20 to 25 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Remove from the pan and let cool. Cover and refrigerate until you are ready to serve.
  3. For the tomato and pesto topping: Combine all the ingredients in a medium bowl and stir. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  4. For the avocado and black bean salsa: Mix all the ingredients together, cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve the savory casserole with the assorted toppings.;

I've made this recipe a couple of times since its a big hit in my family.Made a few variation once &amp; it was equally tasty.When I made it for the first time followed the same method but substituted marinated minced chicken instead of the ham since we don't eat ham. Marinated minced chicken with salt,pepper for about 15 min before pouring it into the baking dish.<br />The second time made it with only the Italian blend veggies, again substitute for ham.This time have added french fried onions along with the veggies.It was delectable.I really liked the onion mushroom jam , something very different than the usual pesto..I short I've enjoyed making it, serving it &amp; savoring it !
