"In England, white beans are typically baked in tomato sauce and eaten for breakfast. Since this way to start the day is less common in Germany, we decided to turn the British classic into a casserole by baking them with cheese and cooked ham. Eat it as a side dish for a hearty brunch, or enjoy as a simple main."
