I made this today and it was very good. I did not use quite the 2lbs of cheese. My dish was a little smaller then stated and I would not have been able to fit it all in I probably used around 1.5lbs of cheese. It was very yummy! Thank you.

I dug out this recipe last night and didn’t have time to let it sit, I just baked it right away – it was delicious! I’m sure it would be better if I followed directions, but it was still great. I only used half the cheese called for (guilty conscience) and added one cup of corn. Very nice side dish to pulled pork tacos. Thanks Calli!

With all that cheese it doesn’t stick! I’ve never spray or greased the pan, and it comes right out.

I too questioned the amount of cheese. 2 lbs sounds like a lot of cheese – that’s 8 cups of cheese – whoohoo. Anywho – I made this dish last night and put it in the fridge. I did not use 8 cups of cheese but I did use 2 cups of jack and 2 cups of cheddar and I grated some pepper jack that I had in a block so probably about another 1/2 cup of cheese. I baked it before work this morning and it was delicious. I love it – it’s a keeper. It came out just fine without the 8 cups of cheese. I just can’t imagine 8 cups of cheese with only 4 eggs – but it probably is even better. Good recipe – it’s a keeper in my file. 5 stars and 2 snaps.

I just made this for my family and we all loved it! I forgot to add the evaporated milk (oops!) and although I’m sure it would be better with said ingredient, it was still delicious. Definitely a keeper!

Doesn’t stick to the baking dish?

It allows the egg mixture to seep into the cheeses. I have step by step photography on my related blog post that shows what happens overnight. I love that I can prep it the day before, especially because I usually serve this dish on a holiday when I don’t have time to cook that morning or when I’m having guests.

Just out of curiosity, why does the casserole have to sit overnight?

Is 2 lbs. of cheese correct ?
This looks lovely and sounds so yummy.
