This casserole is a great way to use up leftover ingredients. I always have some sausage and bread cubes in my freezer, so this is a perfect recipe for me.

I'm a vegetarian. Can I use tofu instead of sausage in this casserole?

I thought this casserole was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This casserole was a little too dry for my taste. I think I'll add some more milk or cream next time.

This American Breakfast Casserole was a hit with my family! The flavors of the sausage, cheese, and eggs were perfectly balanced, and the bread cubes added a nice texture. I will definitely be making this again.
