Notes
Sausage can be swapped out for bacon, sautéed veggies or meatless sausage.
Yes, you can prep this the night before. Assemble as shown then cover and refrigerate overnight. In the morning take the pan out of the fridge and let it sit on the counter for about 20-30 minutes. You don’t want to put a cold pyrex in the oven it can shatter.
Yes you can freeze this breakfast casserole. Cut into individual portions and freeze in an air tight container. I like to pull out individual portions and reheat for breakfast.
Omg this turned out amazing!! Thank you for this super simple and delicious recipe. We used sausage crumbles, and bacon crumbles and did the rest as instructed. I measured the cheese with my heart so more than a cup and sprinkled parsley on top. Baked at 350 in a round glass dish for exactly 37 min Yumm!
So glad you liked it!
I made this today using frozen turkey sausage crumbles. Instead of a can of jumbo biscuits, I used three cans of the smaller variety that come 10 to a can. It was too salty for my taste, so next time I won’t add the extra salt with the pepper. Even so, the texture was pure comfort food. My children – ages 6, 7, and 8 – all asked for seconds!
I made this over the weekend and the family loved it. Next time I will try adding sautéed onions & peppers!
