Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound sausage meat
1 medium onion (- diced)
1 medium green pepper (- diced)
8 large eggs
2 cups milk
1/2 teaspoon sea salt salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups big croutons
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Sautee the onions and green peppers in a large skillet on medium-high heat for about 3 minutes, until they start to soften. Add in the sausage and cook until the sausage meat is cooked through, breaking the sausage into about blueberry-sized pieces.
  • Whisk the eggs, milk, salt and ground black pepper together in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • Lightly oil a 9x13 baking dish. Layer the croutons evenly on the bottom. Layer the sausage mix on top of the croutons. Evenly layer the grated cheese on top of the sausage mix. Gently pour the egg mixture on top. Cover and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight, at least 8 hours.
  • In the morning, preheat the oven to 325°/160°C. Remove the cover and place the casserole in the middle of the oven. Bake for 30 minutes. Turn the heat up to 350°C/176°C. Bake for an additional 20-30 minutes, until the egg is set. To check, insert a knife in the middle of the casserole and it should come out clean. If the casserole is browning too quickly, cover with a foil for the last bit of baking time.
  • Let the casserole sit for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality sausage. The sausage is the star of the show in this casserole, so make sure to use a good quality brand that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Don't overcook the sausage. Overcooked sausage will be dry and tough. Cook it just until it is no longer pink in the center.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This recipe calls for diced green bell pepper, sliced mushrooms, and chopped onion. Feel free to add other vegetables that you like, such as diced tomatoes, spinach, or zucchini.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is another important ingredient in this casserole. Use a cheese that melts well and has a good flavor. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Swiss are all good choices.
  • Make sure the casserole is cooked through. The casserole is done when the center is heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Conclusion:

This make-ahead sausage breakfast casserole is a delicious and easy way to start your day. It is perfect for busy mornings or for a weekend brunch. The casserole can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven or microwave. It is also a great option for a potluck or brunch party.
