Easy Breakfast Casserole Ole image

I needed to make a brunch type casserole for a crowd of 8. I also did not want to have to get up to a mess so threw this recipe together to make ahead. Very simple to put together either that morning or the night before. I have done both ways now and am glad this comes out so good. Heat is up to you for taste.

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 pan, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 dozen egg
1 cup milk (I use 1%, any can be used)
1 green pepper, chopped (any color or combo will do)
1 onion, diced
1 tablespoon garlic, minced (I use more but I love garlic)
1 tablespoon basil
1 tablespoon oregano
1 tablespoon pepper
1 teaspoon salt
10 breakfast sausage links, chopped into pieces
2 potatoes, cut into cubes (1-inch)
4 ounces mozzarella cheese or 4 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
8 ounces salsa (I use medium, use the heat to your taste)
8 tablespoons butter (may use less, I like to add more for the flavor, margarine may also be substituted)

Steps:

  • In large bowl , beat eggs, milk, spices, salt and pepper til frothy. Add in chopped sausage, pepper and onion and fold.
  • Cut potatoes into small cubes, put into greased 9 x 13 pan (grease with some butter).
  • Pour egg mixture over top of potatoes.
  • Dot with 4 -8 Tbsp butter (may use more here accouting for the 8 Tbsp).
  • Pour 1/2 of salsa over top, reserving remainder for topping after cooked.
  • Sprinkle cheese over top.
  • Cover with foil and bake in oven, 350°F for 45 minutes. Check after 45 min every 5 minutes til edges are just browned. Eggs will fluff up.
  • Cool a bit before serving.
  • NOTES**.
  • Oven temperatures vary so check accordingly.
  • If making the night before, do not put salsa or cheese on until before putting in the oven.
