Many years ago a dear friend in Florida, Jan Dean, gave me this recipe.  Easter brunch is not complete unless this dish is serve.  It is extremely rich, but it is only once a year so go for it.

Easter Brunch - Potato Brunch Casserole

Hard to believe that we ate outdoors last Easter on the first Sunday in April.  This year the weathermen can't make up their mind - rain or sun.

The dish below was given to me by a dear friend from Sarasota, Florida.  Whenever it is served, it just disappears. All I can say absolutely  delicious.  From Taste and Tales of Massachusetts
