Breakfast Casserole

Here is a recipe for a breakfast casserole that I am going to try on my visitors in the next couple of weeks. If anyone else has any breakfast casseroles that are simple and easy, please e-mail them to me at mellighodges@yahoo.com. I would love to try them out!

1 lb. pork sausage
1 can refrigerated crescent rolls
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 small onion chopped
4 lg eggs, beaten
3/4 cup milk
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

Brown the sausage in large skillet and drain the excess fat. Press the crescent rolls in the bottom and up sides of a large greased casserole dish; press seams together and pinch to seal.

Sprinkle with the cheese and onion. Combine the eggs, milk and seasonings and pour over mixture in casserole.

Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until eggs look set. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Yummy!!

Hey Melanie,

Here's another really easy good one:

8 hashbrown patties
1 lb sausage, browned and drained
3 C. shredded cheddar
6 eggs
1 c. milk
1/2 tsp. ground mustard
salt and pepper to taste

Grease 9x13 in. pan. Lay hashbrown patties in bottom of dish. Top with cooked sausage, and cheese. Whisk eggs, milk and seasonings together, and pour over top. Cover and bake at 375 for 1 hour. Remove foil and bake 10-15 minutes more till lightly browned.

Sometimes I just use 1/2 lb of meat, and 2 C. of cheese...still good and easier on the grocery budget! :) Or, you can put chopped ham or bacon in it, too. If I'm in a big hurry, I put a pkg. of those Hormel real bacon pieces in instead.
