American · Main course · 60 min total

A hearty and comforting breakfast casserole with savory sausage, fluffy eggs, and melted cheese, perfect for feeding a crowd or meal prep.

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground breakfast sausage
• 1 tbsp butter
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1/2 green bell pepper, diced
• 12 large eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 6 slices bread, cubed (about 4 cups)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned, breaking it up. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
3. In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté onion and bell pepper until softened, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
4. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined. Stir in cooked sausage, sautéed vegetables, 1 1/2 cups cheese, and bread cubes. Pour into prepared dish and top with remaining 1/2 cup cheese.
5. Bake for 40-45 minutes, until set and golden on top. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Tips

• For make-ahead: assemble casserole the night before, cover, and refrigerate. Bake as directed, adding 10 minutes to cook time.
• Serve with hot sauce or salsa for extra flavor.
• Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave or oven.
