Cheesy Baked Ham Omelet Squares image

This is wonderful to serve at a brunch, the Tabasco is only optional I add it in for an extra boost of flavor -- you may use cooked crumbled sausage meat in place of the ham, feel free to add in frozen broccoli, olives, jalapeno pepper or whatever you wish --- you are going to love this! :)
