Eggs Benedict Casserole

Ingredients
6 English muffins
12 ounces Canadian bacon, chopped
8 large eggs
2 cups whole milk
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt, I like Lawry's
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 cup Monterey Jack, shredded, optional
3 cups prepared hollandaise sauce (I just use the packets at the store)

Instructions
Grease a 9×13 inch casserole dish with butter, or spray with non-stick spray.
Chop all the Canadian bacon into bite size pieces. Add HALF to the bottom of the casserole dish and spread out.
Split the English muffins with a fork. Toast each half, spread with butter, and then chop them all into 1 inch pieces.
Add half of your English muffin pieces to the casserole dish, on top of the Canadian bacon. Repeat the layers: add the remaining Canadian bacon, then add the rest of the English muffins.
Make the egg mixture. In a large bowl or stand mixer, whisk together 8 eggs, 1 and 1/3 cups cream, 2/3 cup milk, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon mustard powder. Beat until well mixed.
Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheese over the top. This is optional but tasty!
Pour the egg mixture over the English muffins and Canadian Bacon, distributing the liquid evenly.
Cover well with foil and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours.**
Remove from the refrigerator while you preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Cover the casserole with foil if it's not already.
Bake at 375° for 35 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking at 375 for 10-15 minutes longer or until the center is set and not liquid-y. It may jiggle a little bit, but should not slosh. If a butter knife stuck into the center comes out with no wet egg mixture on it, it's done. 
Serve the hollandaise sauce over the casserole. I prefer to drizzle the sauce over individual portions, but you can spoon it over the entire casserole if you prefer.
Store leftover casserole in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days.
