Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish (I used my butter wrapper).
- Combine sweet potatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, a teaspoon kosher salt, garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper on a large baking sheet in a single even layer, toss to coat well.
- Bake in a preheated oven until slightly browned, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat remaining tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and red pepper and cook and stir until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. ADd garlic and stir for 1 more minute. Transfer mixture to a medium mixing bowl.
- Heat the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook. Break apart with a spatula until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain sausage and add to the bowl with the veggie mixture. Add spinach, mozzarella cheese, and rosemary to the mixture.
- Gently whisk eggs, milk, and remaining kosher salt and black peper together in a bowl until well combined. Pour over the sausage and veggie mixture and gently toss to combine.
- Place roasted potatoes in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Pour the vveggie and sausage mixture evenly over top.
- Bake, uncovered, in a preheated oven until the eggs are set in the center, about 50 minutes. If the egg mixture starts to brown, put a loose sheet of aluminum foil over the baking dish to cover it.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and tools ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients will always give you the best flavor. If you can, try to use organic or locally-sourced ingredients whenever possible.
- Don't Overcook the Sausage: Sausage can easily become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Cook it just until it's browned and cooked through.
- Use a Large Baking Dish: A 9x13 inch baking dish is the perfect size for this casserole. If you use a smaller dish, the casserole will be too thick and may not cook evenly.
- Let the Casserole Rest Before Serving: After the casserole is baked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the casserole to set.

This sausage and sweet potato breakfast casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a holiday brunch or special occasion.
