Breakfast Casserole
If you're looking for a simple and hearty breakfast or brunch dish, this Breakfast Casserole is a crowd-pleaser.
Ingredients:
1 pound sausage (your choice of breakfast sausage)
1 can refrigerated biscuits (8 biscuits)
2 cups shredded cheese
4 large eggs
3/4 cup milk
Salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400°F and prepare a baking dish (around 9x13 inches works best).
Cook the sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until it's crumbled and browned. Be sure to drain any excess grease to keep the casserole from being too greasy.
Prepare the biscuit crust: Flatten out the biscuits in your baking dish to create a single pastry sheet. Gently press the perforations together to ensure it forms an even layer.
Assemble the casserole: Evenly distribute the cooked sausage over the biscuit crust. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the sausage.
Make the egg mixture: In a bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture evenly over the sausage and cheese layers.
Bake the casserole: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and golden brown on top. Be sure not to overcook it to keep the eggs tender.
Let it rest: Once the casserole is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it stand for about 10 minutes. This will allow it to firm up slightly for easier cutting.
Serve and enjoy: Slice into squares, serve warm, and enjoy this comforting dish!
Tips:
Add-ins: Feel free to customize your casserole by adding other ingredients like sautéed onions, bell peppers, or spinach for extra flavor.
Cheese: Mix and match cheeses, such as mozzarella, pepper jack, or Monterey Jack, for a different twist each time.
Leftovers: Store any leftover casserole in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for the best results.
This Breakfast Casserole is perfect for feeding a hungry family or serving at a weekend brunch. It's easy to make, and the flavor combination is sure to keep everyone coming back for seconds! Enjoy!
