Breakfast Casserole II

This is a family favorite that has turned into a family tradition. My husband and children absolutely love when I make this and have come to expect it on Easter and Christmas mornings. I mostly follow the recipe, but I sauté green pepper, onion, mushroom, and garlic wth the sausage. I grease the baking dish and add the potatoes, then the sausage/vegetables. I mix the cheese in with the eggs/milk/soup, add salt and pepper and pour over top of everything in the casserole dish. Bake for 55 minutes and let sit for 10.

Big hit! Took a little longer to cook than recipe. Easy and great for Christmas morning.

Sooo Yummy!!! I made a few changes though...I only had 9 eggs but added a tiny bit more milk. I also would recommend thawing the potatoes. I used ore-Ida shredded potatoes because that's what I had on hand. I also didn't have mushrooms but used onion & green pepper sautéed in the hot sausage left over oil (not a lot but good). Also took much longer than 50 mins, prob an extra 20. I also had a mixture of shredded cheeses that I mixed on top! All in all my fiancé LOVED IT & I can't wait to eat it for breakfast!

I enjoyed this recipe, although I made a few corrections as suggested by other reviewers and a few of my own. I decided to layer this dish - layer 1 (tater tots), layer 2 (cooked ground turkey sausage), layer 3 (sautéed red and yellow bell peppers and onions), layer 4 (cheeses - extra sharp cheddar, Monterey and Colby), and layer 5 (mixture of eggs, carnation milk, hot sauce, black pepper, and cream of mushroom sauce). Then I baked the dish at 350° until done. I also completed all the layers, except for the last two, the night before. Then all I had to do in the morning was add the cheese and egg mixture and bake. My family and I really enjoyed this recipe!!!
