Sausage provides plenty of flavor in this hearty morning casserole shared by Teresa Marchese from New Berlin, Wisconsin. It's a great addition to a brunch buffet, because it's assembled the night before to cut down on last-minute fuss.

cut the recipe by 1/3, added a cup of leftover brown rice to reduce bread, used 4 slices of sprouted grain bread and a pkg of bacon bits and 1# bulk turkey sausage to reduce the fat. Next time I'll add mushrooms.

I layered ingredients in a 9x13 pan--sausage on bottom,then bread, then egg mixture, then cheese, then bacon on top along with a sprinkling of some dried herbs. Very pretty! It was a big hit at our church brunch.

I have also found that it needs to bake longer than an hour. I use day old french bread. I make this frequently and always get rave reviews.

This recipe is hearty and delicious, and I love that it is prepared ahead of time! I make this for a tasty Sunday morning surprise for my family if I have to work, they just take it out and heat it up!

We substituted veggies for the bacon to cut down on cost and fat.

I have been making this dish since it appeared ing the quick cooking magazine. It is easy and taste wonderful. I do add a 1/2 cup of diced onion and instead of using 11/2 lbs of sausage I use 1 pound of sausage and 1/2 lb of Zesty sausage to give it a little kick.

This is a great dish! I love how you can make it the night before. Although, I have found that it needs to bake a little bit longer than the recipe calls for.It does keeps well unbaked in the refrigerator for several days though, I once made it for my Brother and Sister-in-law and put it in their fridge a day or so before they got home from their honeymoon so that they wouldn't have to make breakfast when they got home.They loved it. Thank you!
