This recipe looks almost too good to be true! I will need to try this for the holidays, as it looks like it is pretty easy to make.

This is a different breakfast casserole recipe than the ones I have made. I like the idea of putting spinach and mushrooms in and I am curious about adding sour cream. What does sour cream taste like in an egg casserole? I will leave out the onions, but I will probably throw in extra cheese!
