NOTES & TIPS

(1) Mixed Vegetables. You may use a variety of chopped mixed fresh vegetables — anything that sounds like it would be tasty in an egg-based breakfast casserole. It’s also a great way to use up leftover vegetables in the refrigerator. I typically use 1 red bell pepper, 1 green bell pepper, and 1 small red onion.
(2) Making Ahead Of Time. This recipe can be prepared the night before to expedite the cooking process in the morning. Keep the browned sausage, cooked hash browns, and chopped vegetables in the baking dish separate from the egg mixture. Both should be covered and stored in the refrigerator overnight. In the morning, pour the egg mixture into the baking dish and bake according to the recipe’s instructions. Watch the baking time — it may take a little longer than the recipe states because the sausage and hash browns will be cold.
(3) Serving / Leftovers. The breakfast casserole will be too hot to eat immediately after baking. Let it cool a bit before slicing and serving. Enjoy this breakfast casserole alongside oven-baked bacon, toast, cheesy biscuits, or a mixed berry salad. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, and reheated in the oven.

Could you substitute 2% milk instead of whole?

Would it be possible to bake this then freeze it ahead of time? I am going down to the beach with a bunch of people and would love to make this, freeze it, then put it in the oven the morning we choose to use it. Thanks!

Hi Megan! I haven’t tried that so I can’t say how it’ll turn out. I think it’ll probably work just fine, especially since you’re using the oven to reheat it.
