How to Make the Recipe

Let’s get cooking! Follow these simple steps to create your Breakfast Casserole:

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. While it’s heating up, spray a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
2. In a skillet, brown the sausage over medium heat, breaking it apart as it cooks. Once it’s nice and browned, drain any excess grease.
3. Spread the crescent rolls evenly in the bottom of your prepared baking dish. This will be the delicious base of your casserole!
4. Top the crescent rolls with the cooked sausage, then pour the beaten eggs over the sausage layer.
5. Generously sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top. The more cheese, the better, right?
6. Pop it in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your Breakfast Casserole turns out perfectly:

• Feel free to mix in some veggies like bell peppers or spinach for added nutrition and flavor.
• If you love a bit of spice, try using spicy sausage or adding some diced jalapeños.
• For a creamier texture, you can add a splash of milk or cream to the beaten eggs.
• Make sure to let the casserole cool for a few minutes before slicing; this helps it hold its shape.

How to Serve

This Breakfast Casserole is fantastic on its own, but you can elevate it even further! Here are some serving suggestions:

• Pair it with a fresh fruit salad for a refreshing contrast.
• Serve with a side of Cucumber Vinegar Salad for a crunchy, tangy addition.
• Drizzle with hot sauce or salsa for a kick!
• For a creamy side, try a Creamy Cucumber Salad.

Make Ahead and Storage

This Breakfast Casserole is perfect for meal prep! Here’s how to make it ahead of time:

• You can assemble the casserole the night before and store it in the fridge. Just pop it in the oven in the morning!
• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
• For longer storage, you can freeze individual portions. Just thaw and reheat when you’re ready to enjoy!
