Alright, so I was trying to make something for breakfast that wouldn’t take forever, you know? I came across this idea for a “quick easy breakfast casserole” and thought, why not? Here’s how it went down.
First off, I grabbed some biscuits ’cause I saw something about an “Easy Biscuits and Gravy Breakfast Casserole” online. Sounded good, right? I preheated my oven to 350 degrees. Then, I cooked up some breakfast sausage in a pan, breaking it apart with a spoon until it was all brown and crumbly. Drain any excess fat because no one likes a greasy casserole.
Getting Everything Ready
While the sausage was doing its thing, I whisked together a bunch of eggs in a big bowl. I threw in some milk, salt, and pepper. In a greased baking dish, I tore up the biscuits into smaller pieces and spread them out evenly. You want to have nice little chunks of biscuit throughout the casserole.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cook and crumble sausage.
- Whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
- Tear biscuits and spread in a dish.
Putting It All Together
Next, I sprinkled the cooked sausage over the biscuits. Then I poured the egg mixture over everything, making sure it soaked into all the biscuit pieces. Top it with a generous amount of shredded cheese because, well, cheese makes everything better.
I popped the dish into the oven and set a timer. It took about 30 minutes for it to bake through. You’ll know it’s done when the edges are golden brown, the center is set, and the cheese is all melted and bubbly. You might want to let it cool for a few minutes before cutting into it, or you can serve it warm.
- Sprinkle sausage over biscuits.
- Pour egg mixture over.
- Top with cheese.
- Bake for about 30 minutes.
The End Result
Honestly, it turned out pretty darn good! It was super easy to throw together, and the whole family loved it. Plus, there were leftovers, which is always a win in my book. This breakfast casserole thing is definitely going into my regular rotation. I think these things are popular because you can make them ahead, freeze them, and just pop them in the oven on a busy morning, so it is super convenient.
This was my first time making this kind of casserole, and I’m already thinking about what to try next time. Maybe some veggies? Or a different type of cheese? The possibilities are endless!
So, yeah, that’s my little kitchen adventure for today. If you’re looking for a quick and easy breakfast that’ll actually fill you up, give this casserole a try. You might just surprise yourself!
