Cheese and Egg Casserole


Tomorrow is a holiday here in India, as were are celebrating our 65th Independence Day. A group of my younger sons classmates (that means a whole herd of teen wolves) will be having a late afternoon gossip at my place. I'll be out attending a Charity car rally. So this is what I'm doing for them... tonight I'm getting the first part of the casserole ready, only thing my son is to do is pop it in the oven tomorrow when his friends arrive and the baked casserole will be ready to serve in half an hour's time... This is what you mom's and even office goers can do... an easy, time saving, healthy casserole.
