Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (about 8 biscuits)
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley or other preferred herbs (optional)
- 1 cup cooked sausage, crumbled (or substitute with sautéed mushrooms and bell peppers for vegetarian)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or a cheese blend such as mozzarella or pepper jack)
Optional Vegetables
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/2 cup diced onions
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
Seasonings
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- Optional herbs: parsley, rosemary, thyme, or chives
Instructions
- Prepare the Sausage and Veggies: Cook sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through. If using vegetables such as onions or bell peppers, sauté them alongside the sausage until softened. Drain any excess grease to avoid an oily casserole.
- Cut the Biscuits: Open the refrigerated biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters, creating bite-sized pieces that will bubble up while baking.
- Mix the Eggs and Milk: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and any preferred herbs or seasonings until well combined. This mixture adds richness and helps bind the casserole.
- Assemble the Casserole: Lightly grease or spray a 9×13-inch baking dish. Spread half of the biscuit pieces evenly over the bottom. Layer half of the cooked sausage and vegetables on top, then sprinkle half of the shredded cheese. Repeat the layers once more. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the entire dish.
- Bake Until Golden and Bubbling: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the eggs are set, the biscuits are golden brown, and the casserole is bubbling around the edges. Let cool for a few minutes before serving for best texture.
Notes
- Use room temperature eggs for better mixing and even cooking.
- Don’t overcrowd the baking dish; spread biscuits evenly to allow puffing.
- Let the casserole rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to firm up.
- For bubbly, browned cheese, sprinkle some cheese on top halfway through baking.
- Check doneness with a toothpick; it should come out clean when the casserole is done.
