Breakfast Casserole


The following is a great breakfast casserole to use up a few of those eggs the hens are busy laying so abundantly this time of year!

Breakfast Casserole

1 pound of breakfast sausage
2 cups of milk
6 large eggs
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 Cups of Shredded Cheddar Cheese
1 1/2 Cups of B-Quick Mix

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cook sausage and drain the grease.  Spread the cooked sausage on the bottom of a greased  9x13 pan.  

In a large bowl mix eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.  Add the Quick Mix and stir well.  Fold in the cheese.  Pour this mixture in the 9 x 13 pan over the top of the cooked sausage.  

Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes or until the center is firm.   Let set for 10 minutes before serving.

Variations:

I add onions, bell peppers, and dehydrated tomatoes to the sausage and cook this in cast iron until done.  Instead of using cheddar cheese, I substitute dry curd cottage cheese.  I pour the egg mixture over the sausage in the cast iron skillet and bake it in the skillet.
