Ingredients Needed:
- 12 ounces mild bulk sausage
- 12 ounces hot bulk sausage
- 10 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 green pepper, chopped
- 1 red pepper, chopped
- 1 zucchini, chopped
- 16 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cups cubed American cheese
How To Make Breakfast Casserole?
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Cook the sausage: Brown both the mild and hot sausage in a skillet over medium heat. Drain the grease, and set the sausage aside to cool slightly.
- Combine ingredients: In a large, deep baking dish, add the cooked sausage, eggs, sour cream, onion, green and red peppers, zucchini, mushrooms, and American cheese. Stir well to mix all ingredients evenly.
- Bake the casserole: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
- Serve: Let the casserole cool slightly, then serve warm. Enjoy!
Recipe Tips
- Brown the Sausage Well: Browning both sausages fully before adding them to the casserole adds depth to the flavor and keeps the sausage from becoming greasy.
- Chop Veggies Evenly: Chop your veggies to similar sizes so they cook evenly. This way, every bite has the perfect blend of flavors.
- Use Fresh Eggs: Fresh eggs make a difference in texture. Check for freshness by placing them in water; fresh eggs sink, while old eggs float.
- Stir Ingredients Thoroughly: Mix all ingredients well before baking to ensure each portion has an even distribution of sausage, cheese, and vegetables.
- Bake Until Golden: For a perfect finish, let the casserole bake until it’s golden on top. This creates a slight crisp on the edges and locks in the flavor.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: First, let the leftover breakfast casserole cool to room temperature. Then, transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days to keep it fresh.
- Freeze: Allow the casserole to cool completely, then wrap individual portions tightly in plastic wrap or place them in freezer-safe containers. Freeze for up to 2 months.
- Reheat: Transfer a portion to a microwave-safe plate. Cover and heat on medium power for 1-2 minutes, checking every 30 seconds to avoid overcooking.
