Vegetarian Sausage, Cheese & Egg Casserole image

This is a Morningstar Farms recipe. Both my husband and I love their veggie breakfast sausage and will definitely try this recipe - it sounds delicious! Mozzarella, or any other cheese of your choice, may be substituted for cheddar. Egg Substitute (2 cups) may also be substituted for whole eggs for a healthier version.
