How well does a breakfast caserole re-heat?

[Anonymous]

I'm taking dinner to a friend with a new baby on Friday.

I thought it might be nice to add in something for breakfast that they could also have over the weekend. I thought a breakfast caserole would be nice but does anyone have any experience re-heating one? How do you prevent overcooking it??

I'd also be grateful for any other breakfast suggestions of what might work well. Obviously, muffins and stuff like that but I was trying to think of something more meal-like that could be served warm.

Thanks!

Eggs do not reheat well at all.

Agree they're not the world's greatest reheatable food, but they can work passably. I've reheated stradas, etc. before, and it's been okay.

It's better to do it in the oven than the microwave. In the microwave, stuff can get watery.

How about a quiche or frittata instead? I think they reheat well and can be had cold or room temp as well.

Or a baked french toast-type recipe, unbaked. They need to sit in the fridge overnight anyway. She can just pop it in the oven and done.

Yes. Was going to suggest this, but add cinnamon: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/French-Toast-Bread-Pudding-108944 Add a big bowl berries or sliced fruit. They also reheat well in the oven. Frittatas also reheat reasonably well in the oven, but use a lowish temperature.
