Breakfast Sausage Casserole

For our second wedding reception, my parents had a brunch and this is the same dish my mom made for everyone.  We actually made it for dinner the other night. I always liked to eat breakfast for dinner growing up so I thought why not??  Its super yummy with oven roasted potatoes or hashbrowns!

You will need:
  • 1 package (16 oz) regular flavor breakfast sausage, preferably Jimmy Dean
  • 10 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 3 cups of milk
  • 2 teaspoons dry mustard
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 6 cups of cubed white bread
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 medium tomato, diced
  • 1/2 cup thin sliced green onion
Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  In a large pan, cook sausage over medium-high heat stirring until cooked through and no longer pink.  In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, milk, mustard, and salt-stir well.
  •  Spread half of the bread evenly in a buttered 9x13 baking dish.  Sprinkle with half of the pepper, half of the cheese, half of the sausage, half of the tomato and half of the green onion.  Repeat layering with the remaining ingredients.  Pour egg mixture over the top spreading evenly.

  • Bake uncovered for 55-60 minutes, making sure eggs have set.

  1. I don't know why I just visited your blog at 1 a.m. when I am starving, because everything looks AH-MAZING. Seriously. I could just swim in that salsa it looks so good.
