Savory Country Breakfast Casserole
Ingredients
  • 1 (16 ounce) package breakfast sausage
  • 1 chopped green onion
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 6 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 (2.64 ounce) package country gravy mix
  • 6 slices bread, cut into 1 inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika to taste
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature of 325 degrees Fahrenheit (or 165 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric).
2
Next, take a moment to prepare your baking dish by coating it with a generous amount of non-stick cooking spray. This will ensure that your dish releases easily once it's cooked.
3
Brown the sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat, allowing excess fat to drip away.
4
Combine the cooked sausage with chopped green onion and distribute it evenly across the base of your 11x8 inch baking dish.
5
Top this mixture with a layer of shredded cheese, carefully spreading it out to cover the entire surface.
6
In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, water, milk, and gravy mix until well combined.
7
Add this egg mixture to the baking dish, spreading it out evenly to cover the entire surface.
8
Arrange your bread squares in a uniform pattern on top of the egg mixture, making sure not to overlap them.
9
If you're feeling indulgent, drizzle a small amount of melted butter over the bread squares and sprinkle with paprika for added flavor.
10
Bake your dish in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean and free of any remaining egg mixture.
11
Once your dish is cooked, remove it from the oven and set it aside for 10 minutes before serving.
