I actually had the chance to eat this breakfast casserole twice—the first time was when Juanita made it for our once-a-month snack day at work (I had taken a photo of it which ended up being way out of focus), and the second time was when Juanita’s daughter Ashley made this for breakfast for our…

Cranberry Banana Bread
