Sausage Breakfast Casserole: Easy Make-Ahead Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 pound breakfast sausage
• 6 eggs eggs
• 2 cups milk
• 0.75 teaspoon dry mustard powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 8 slices bread, cubed
• 4 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
• 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup

Instructions

1. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
2. Cook the breakfast sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it's evenly browned, crumbly, and fully cooked (about 7-9 minutes). Drain off any excess grease.
3. While the sausage is cooking, whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until they are smooth. Then, whisk in 2 cups of milk, mustard powder, and salt until everything is well combined.
4. Spread the bread cubes evenly into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the cooked sausage over the bread, followed by the Cheddar cheese. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the entire dish. Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
5. When you're ready to bake, preheat your oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
6. Remove the casserole from the refrigerator and take off the cover. In a separate bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of mushroom soup and the remaining 1/2 cup of milk until smooth. Pour this mixture evenly over the casserole.
7. Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is firm and golden brown, approximately 1 1/2 hours.
