The original recipe didn't have the onion or meat. I add those but I usually don't measure, so feel free to use as much as you like. I haven't tried it, but you probably could use those prepackaged shredded potatoes you can get nowadays.

We used bacon as our meat of choice in this recipe and it made for a wonderfully complete meal! All the yummy flavors of a traditional breakfast in one easy dish... woohoo! The Test Kitchen

Step-by-Step

Cook potatoes and cool in the refrigerator. (Can be done the night before.)
Peel, then grate potatoes (or rice in ricer).
Mix eggs, water, salt and pepper together.
Put potatoes and onion, evenly over bottom of a greased casserole. (You can mix them together if you'd like.)
Layer or mix in ham or whatever meat you are using.
Pour beaten egg mixture over potatoes.
Spread cheese over top.
Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
Remove foil and bake an additional 15 minutes until golden brown.
