This breakfast casserole with sausage is not your everyday meal. It's a special occasion kind of meal.
For my family, this is Christmas Morning Breakfast. My mother-in-law has been making this casserole for as long as I've known her, and for years before that as well.
And while she sometimes switches things up and tries something new, we always seem to come back to this recipe - it's just a winner.

You could serve this APPLE PIE GRANOLA for people who want a lighter option. CANDIED BACON would make an excellent side dish. A PEACH STRAWBERRY SMOOTHIE would be an awesome end to an awesome meal!

How Long can you refrigerate breakfast casserole before cooking?
I wouldn't go any longer than 12 hours.
Can you freeze breakfast casserole?
You can! Since the meat is pre-cooked, it's fine to freeze the casserole for up to 2 months before baking. To bake after freezing, allow the casserole to defrost in the fridge for a day, and then bake as directed.
Is this a healthy breakfast?
Absolutely not, but that's why we only have it on special occasions!
