Sausage Breakfast Casserole
I’m writing this up on a cold and rainy Friday morning. It’s been a busy week and we’re all ready for a nice relaxing weekend. I thought the perfect way to start would be a nice hardy breakfast Saturday morning. Tonight before bed, I’m going to assemble our favorite breakfast casserole with sausage, eggs and hashbrowns. It will spend the night in the fridge and go into the oven as soon as I wake up in the morning.
That’s one of my favorite things about breakfast casseroles. All the work can be done the night before because let’s face it… this wouldn’t happen first thing in the morning if it involved anything more complicated than turning on the oven and pushing the casserole dish in.
And there’s another benefit to fixing this for breakfast. The yummy smell coming from the oven will get the rest of my family up and moving without complaint. Ready to give it a try? Here’s one of my family’s favorite Breakfast Casserole recipes.
Easy Breakfast Casserole with Hashbrowns and Sausage |
- 2 lb frozen hashbrowns (thawed)
- 1 pound pork breakfast sausage
- 1 onion
- 5 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- dash of onion powder
- dash of garlic powder
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
- The night before, grease a casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray. Spread the thawed hashbrowns in the dish.
- Chop the onion.
- Heat a skillet and cook the onion and sausage until they are done. Drain the grease and set aside.
- Mix the scramble the eggs and add the milk and seasonings. Pour this mixture over the hashbrown potatoes. Top it with 1 cup of the cheese.
- spread the sausage and onion mixture on top of everything else and top it with the remaining cheese.
- Cover the dish with aluminum foil and store it in the fridge overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350 F. the next morning. Bake the casserole with the foil in place for 60 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 15 minutes.
The directions above outline how to make the casserole the night before and then bake it the next morning. This is my favorite way to do things. If you want to do everything in the morning, just start by preheating the oven, assemble your casserole and bake it right away.
