Sausage and Spinach Breakfast Casserole image

This is a variation on a standard breakfast casserole recipe. You can really use any combination of meat, vegetables, and cheese that you have on hand. This one came out really well! You can substitute frozen drained spinach for the sauteed fresh if that's easier.

I'm not a big fan of sausage, but I really enjoyed this casserole. The spinach and cheese helped to balance out the flavor of the sausage.

This casserole was a little bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices next time.
