This dish is a warm, hearty, and filling breakfast that is perfect for those lazy weekend mornings or when you have a big crowd to feed.
Ingredients
Cooking spray
10 oz refrigerated biscuit dough
1 lb bulk pork sausage
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese divided
6 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
Salt and pepper to taste
1 1/2 cups cold water adjust as needed
1.5 oz package of pork gravy mix
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
Arrange biscuits at the bottom of the prepared dish.
In a large skillet, cook and stir the sausage over medium-high heat until browned and crumbly (5-7 minutes). Drain and discard the grease. Spread the sausage over the biscuits and top with 1 cup of cheese.
Whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl and pour over the cheese layer.
Mix water and gravy mix in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until thickened (1-2 minutes), adding more water for a thinner consistency. Pour over the egg layer.
Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup of cheese over the casserole.
Bake for 30 minutes or until the eggs are fluffy and the cheese is bubbly.
Notes
To add extra flavor, season the egg mixture and/or the sausage with Tony Chachere’s Original Creole Seasoning while browning. Consider Pioneer Brand Peppered Sausage Gravy Mix for the gravy.
