Why you'll love this sausage egg and biscuit breakfast casserole

How to make this easy breakfast casserole
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and prepare a casserole dish with cooking spray.
For this breakfast casserole with biscuits, I used a 3 quart casserole dish. I am all about my baking dish with carrier. It makes it so easy to take this breakfast to a meeting or gathering.
I cut each biscuit into six pieces. The easiest way to do this is to use a pizza cutter.
I used eight frozen pork sausage patties for this biscuit breakfast casserole. Just heat in the microwave and cut the cooked sausage into small pieces. Bacon would work well too as would turkey sausage.
Spread cut biscuits in the bottom of the greased casserole dish. Spread the sausage pieces over the biscuits. Sprinkle ½ cup of the shredded cheese over the sausage.
In a large bowl, beat together the eggs and milk with a whisk. Pour the egg mixture over the other ingredients in the baking pan.
Top with the remainder of the cheese.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the eggs are set.

I absolutely love this recipe! I have already made it twice. Only change is I add diced peppers and onions to the ground sausage while I cook it. So easy and delicious!

Not bad but I found a clipped fingernail inside a piece of sausage.
