Ingredients
1 lb breakfast sausage
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup red bell pepper, diced
1/2 cup green bell pepper, diced
1/2 cup yellow onion, diced
1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough, cut into 1-inch pieces
8 large eggs
1 1/4 cups whole milk
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Chopped parsley or green onions for garnish (optional)
Instructions
1. In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until fully browned, breaking it into crumbles. Drain excess grease and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, sauté diced bell peppers and onions until soft, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
3. Cut the biscuit dough into 1-inch pieces and set aside.
4. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
5. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and spread the biscuit dough evenly across the bottom.
6. Layer the sausage, sautéed vegetables, and pour the egg mixture evenly over everything.
7. Top with shredded cheese.
8. Cover and refrigerate overnight or bake immediately.
9. If refrigerated, let it sit at room temperature for 20–30 minutes before baking.
10. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 35–40 minutes or until eggs are set and top is golden.
11. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with parsley or green onions if desired.
Notes
Use pre-cooked and drained sausage to avoid greasy results.
Make sure to grease your baking dish to prevent sticking.
Let the casserole rest after baking for clean slices and better texture.
