How to Make Irresistible Cozy Breakfast Casserole
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a large baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until crumbly and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess grease.
  3. Add diced onions and bell peppers to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes until tender.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Season with salt and pepper, then fold in the cooked sausage and cheese until combined.
  5. Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
  6. Let the casserole cool for about 5 minutes before slicing into squares and serving warm.

Notes

Garnish with freshly chopped chives for added flavor and color. Great when served with crispy bacon or fresh fruit.
