Preheat Your Oven

Layer the Toppings
- Sprinkle shredded cheese over the crackers. Add any optional ingredients like diced ham, sautéed vegetables, or fresh herbs to customize the dish to your liking.
Pour the Egg Mixture
- Carefully pour the egg mixture over the cheese and toppings. Use a spatula to distribute the mixture evenly.
Bake
- Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are fully cooked and the top is golden brown.
Cool and Serve
- Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before slicing it into portions. Serve warm and enjoy!
