Mozzarella & Spinach Breakfast Casserole image

Sun-dried tomatoes and sausage add lots of texture and flavor to this gooey casserole. We've even enjoyed it reheated after a night game at our local college. It's always a winner in my book. -Nancy Murphy, Mount Dora, Florida

I'm not a fan of casseroles, but this one was actually pretty good. The flavors were well-balanced and the texture was nice and fluffy.

This casserole was a little too dry for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with more milk or cream.

This casserole was a little too cheesy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less mozzarella cheese.

This casserole was a great way to use up leftover spinach. I also added some diced tomatoes and bell peppers for extra flavor.

This casserole was a little too bland for my taste. I think it would have been better with some more seasoning, like salt, pepper, or garlic powder.

I'm not a big fan of spinach, but I loved this casserole. The cheese and breadcrumb topping was so good that I didn't even notice the spinach.

This casserole was a hit with my family! The flavors of the mozzarella, spinach, and eggs were perfectly balanced, and the breadcrumb topping added a nice crunchy texture. I will definitely be making this again.
