Savory Breakfast Potluck Ideas

Potato, Sausage & Broccoli Breakfast Casserole
Tender potato cubes, savory sausage crumbles, and bright broccoli florets bound in a creamy egg custard. Hearty enough to fuel a crowd—and leftovers reheat beautifully in individual squares.
Fluffy eggs studded with salty feta and vibrant spinach make this dish feel fancy without the fuss. It’s one of my go-to make-ahead breakfast recipes for any potluck brunch menu.
Soft tortillas wrapped around scrambled eggs, melty cheese, and your choice of fillings (veggies, sausage, or bacon). I wrap each in foil so guests can heat one up on demand—no extra pans or plates needed.
Layers of savory meat, eggs, and cheese tucked inside fluffy buns. Prep a big batch, freeze on trays, then wrap and bake straight from the freezer—perfect when you can’t cook on-site.
Soft bagels smeared with homemade garlic butter, topped with a folded egg and salty prosciutto. Feels gourmet but comes together in minutes—ideal for a breakfast buffet inspiration that looks fancy without extra effort.
Mini frittatas, egg muffins, and crustless quiches cooked in under 10 minutes. These protein-packed bites cover gluten-free and vegetarian needs, and they’re perfect for little hands (or big appetites!).
These always vanish before my second cup of coffee—double the batch if you dare
