Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h20m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

8 slices white bread, crusts removed and cut into cubes
1 lb spicy pork sausage, crumbled and cooked (Italian, bulk, or Jimmy Dean)
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (4 ounce) can mild green chilies, drained
1 1/2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
10 large eggs
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons chopped sun-dried tomatoes
1 tablespoon minced fresh basil
1/4 teaspoon ground sage
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 teaspoon salt
pepper, to taste (anywhere between 3 dashes to 1/4 teaspoon)
2 dashes Tabasco sauce, to taste
pepper

Steps:

  • Cook the sausage until browned well, crumble; set aside.
  • In the same pan, sauté the mushrooms, onion, garlic, and green chiles.
  • Combine the sausage with the mushroom mixture; set aside and let cool.
  • Grease a 9x13-inch glass baking dish and fill the bottom with the prepared bread cubes; top with sausage mixture then the cheese.
  • Beat together the eggs, milk, sundried tomatoes, basil, sage, dry mustard, salt, pepper, and Tabasco; pour over sausage and cheese in the baking pan.
  • (This dish can be prepared a day ahead- at this point you'd cover it with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator.) In the morning, remove the casserole from the refrigerator and set it out on the counter for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Uncover and bake casserole until it's golden and puffy and the center is set, about 50 to 60 minutes.

  • If you want it especially spicy, chop up a jalapeno and sauté it along with the onion and mushrooms; you can also substitute O'Brien potatoes for the bread; you can even substitute vegetarian sausage for the meat!

SPICY BREAKFAST SAUSAGE



Spicy Breakfast Sausage image

This delicious sausage can be stuffed into casings or formed into patties. I use a wide-mouth canning jar ring and lid to make the patties. Place the ring, top down on the counter. Lay a piece of plastic rap on top of it. With an ice cream scoop, place the sausage into the ring. Lay another piece of plastic wrap on top and smash down with the lid. Perfect size for muffin, egg, cheese and sausage sandwich.
