Sausage Breakfast Casserole image

Everyone should have an easy make-ahead breakfast casserole in their back pocket. This sausage and egg bake is a no-fuss crowd-pleaser.

Categories     brunch     breakfast     brunch     comfort food     main dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 10-12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Butter or nonstick spray
1 lb. breakfast sausage, such as Jimmy Dean
4 scallions, chopped, white and green parts divided
1 red bell pepper, chopped
10 eggs
1 1/4 c. heavy cream
1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
2 tsp. hot sauce, optional
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. black pepper
2 c. shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided (8oz package)
1 30 oz package of frozen, shredded hash browns, thawed

Steps:

  • Grease a 9-by-13-inch (or other 3-quart) baking dish with butter or nonstick spray. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and break up into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Cook the meat until no pink pieces remain, 6-8 minutes. Add the red bell pepper and white and light green parts of the scallions and cook 3 more minutes. Transfer to a plate to let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, mustard, hot sauce, salt, black pepper and about one-half of the remaining green parts of the scallions (save the rest to sprinkle on top of the casserole once baked.) Gently fold 1 ½ cups of cheese, the hash-browns and the sausage mixture into the egg mixture. Transfer all to the baking dish and smooth into an even layer.
  • Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 50 min. Remove the foil and top with the remaining ½ cup of cheese. Increase the oven temperature to 400 degrees and finish baking until the center of the casserole is set (not jiggly) and the top is slightly golden, 10-15 more minutes. Let rest 10 minutes, top with the remaining green parts of the scallions, then serve.

WEEKEND SEASONED RISE AND SHINE SAUSAGE CASSEROLE (BREAKFAST BAK



Weekend Seasoned Rise and Shine Sausage Casserole (Breakfast Bak image

This is recipe originally from Jimmy Dean. It is similar to the Rise and Shine casserole listed on this site but is seasoned and includes the bread too. Perfect for a weekend breakfast or brunch or for a holiday or birthday morning. It is somewhat labor intensive in that you have to remember to refridgerate it but not too long and take it out before baking for an hour but not longer than 2 and you have to let it sit when you really just want to eat it right away. But it takes a lot of the prep out of chopping etc. So check it out.Thus preparation time includes refrigeration time, prep and letting it sit after baking. Serve this to family and friends. Enjoy.

RISE AND SHINE BREAKFAST CASSEROLE



Rise and Shine Breakfast Casserole image

This recipe is a cross between a traditional breakfast casserole and a tater tot casserole. So good! It's savory and makes for a hearty breakfast. All of the work is done the night before. The best part is just having to pop it in the oven in the morning. This feeds a nice sized family and would be great on a holiday morning when...

Provided by Holly Watson

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 - 12 slice bread (use your favorite)
1/2 - 1 lb bacon (or sausage if you prefer)
1 pkg shredded cheese (8 oz)
1 pkg tater tots (32 oz)
8 eggs
2 1/2 c milk
1/2 c heavy cream or half and half (can use 1/2 cup more milk if you dont have any)
salt & pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Spray a large casserole dish with non-stick spray.
  • 2. Tear the 6-12 slices of bread into pieces about the size of a half-dollar. Line the bottom of the pan with the bread. Make sure the bottom of the pan is completely covered. Set aside.
  • 3. Fully cook the bacon (or sausage) in a skillet. Remove and pat dry with a paper towel to get rid of the extra grease. **Note: You can use as much or as little meat as you want. If you have a meat lover in the family you might want to try both bacon and sausage together in this recipe.**
  • 4. Spread the meat generously over the bread, making sure the meat is evenly distributed. Sprinkle 1/2 the bag of cheese on top of the bacon/bread layer. Set aside.
  • 5. Bake tater tots as directed on package. Once they are crispy & golden brown, place them on top of the cheese layer. Using a fork, run over tater tots to break some open so there will be potatoes in every bite. Set aside.
  • 6. In a medium/large bowl, crack 8 eggs (if making a smaller casserole you may have to use 6; or if a larger about 10+) Scramble the eggs with a fork. Add 2 1/2 cups milk and 1/2 cup heavy cream to the egg mixture and whisk well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. **Note: Again if you do not have these on hand or want to trim the calories just substitute for an additional 1/2 cup milk.***
  • 7. Pour egg/milk over the casserole, paying special attention to the corners and sides as they tend to dry out if they don't have enough liquid.
  • 8. Sprinkle the other 1/2 bag of shredded cheese on the top of the casserole.
  • 9. Cover with foil and let refrigerate overnight. (You don't necessarily have to do this step but it makes the casserole a hundred times better! Really easy to make it the night beforehand and just pop it in the oven in the morning!)
  • 10. Remove from refrigerator. Remove tin foil. Bake at 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes depending on your oven. **Note: You can always put the foil back over the dish to prevent premature browning/burning.**
  • 11. Let cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy! :)
