Tomato and Ham Breakfast Casserole

Perfect for a big brunch crowd, this easy casserole takes just 15 minutes of prep time.

Ingredients
8 large eggs
2 cups heavy cream
kosher salt and black pepper
8 ounces sharp Cheddar, grated (about 2 cups)

Remove the foil and cook until the top is golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes more. Sprinkle with the parsley.
