For the perfect combination of eggs, sausage, bread and cheese, this is the dish to try. My mom and I like this sausage breakfast casserole because it bakes up tender and golden, slices beautifully and goes over well whenever we serve it. —Gayle Grigg, Phoenix, Arizona

Sausage Breakfast Casserole Tips

Do you have to brown sausage before putting it into the casserole?

It’s not imperative but highly recommended because browning removes excess fat, providing more flavor to the finished product. If you don’t cook the sausage ahead of time, be sure to check that the meat is fully cooked after the 40-minute baking time and bake longer if needed. If you have leftover pork sausage, use it up in these pork sausage recipes.

Can the egg casserole be frozen?

Yes, you can freeze this egg and sausage casserole. Tightly wrap and freeze the unbaked casserole for up to 3 months (learn how to freeze a casserole the right way!). To bake, completely thaw in the refrigerator for 24 to 36 hours. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 50-60 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Have leftovers? Freeze individual servings of the cooked casserole for an easy morning breakfast by thawing and reheating in the microwave. Follow these other freezer tips to ensure your egg and sausage casserole comes out fresh.
