Breakfast Casserole


One of the dishes I made for Grandparents Day brunch was Breakfast Casserole.  I adopted the recipe from the Egg Farmers of Ontario website - it has a great variety of recipes.  It was super easy and quick to make and was able to bake it in the oven for part of the time I was baking the french toast (which I will provide the recipe for in an upcoming post).

Ingredients
1lb turkey sausage
1 red pepper, coarsely chopped
1 green pepper, coarsely chopped
1 medium onion, finely chopped
12 eggs
1/3 cup milk
1 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Directions
Remove sausage from casing; crumble and cook in large skillet over medium-high heat.  Remove from heat.
If I can't get the sausage to crumble into fine enough pieces, I use my food processor to break it down further.
Sautee peppers and onion until onion is soft.  Add sausage back to pan and continue cooking for 2 minutes.
Drain well and spoon into 9x13 baking pan.

Beat eggs, milk, salt and pepper in bowl. Cook in large skillet, whisking constantly.
When eggs are set but still very moist, remove from heat and stir in 1 cup cheese
Immediately pour over and cover sausage mixture.  Sprinkle with reserved cheese.

Bake in preheated 350 F oven for 20 minutes or until eggs are fully set. 


E was a big help too - in that he was happily occupied by his bouncer while I made the casserole. What a good lil' goose.
