"This is an awesome breakfast casserole that is prepared ahead. It is easy and different. I found it in the December 2003 Southern Living magazine. We have had it for Christmas morning breakfast two years running. It's a hit at our house!"

This breakfast casserole was a hit at a recent brunch I hosted. Everyone raved and I agree. I added 1/2 a green bell pepper (diced) that was in the fridge and needed to be used. I'm glad I did. I might even add more veggies (spinach? mushrooms?) next time. I used hash browns instead of cubed potatoes, and because I used the entire package, I added an extra egg and used a very generous cup of the baking mix. It ended up feeding 10 comfortably with no leftovers. I also used the "Heart Healthy" Bisquick to try and reduce the fat. Next time I might also use Eggbeaters instead of whole eggs to make it more healthy. One of my guests was disappointed when he arrived and saw I hadn't made my usual bread-based breakfast casserole -- he left saying he liked this one even better. Thanks for a yummy recipe I know we'll be making again and again!

I got this recipe from my MIL - we love it for any meal, with chili sauce or salsa. We also mix it up with whatever meat we have - ham or bacon also work well, or a mixture of meat is great. I use regular shredded hash browns, dried onions and dried green peppers, and I don't cook the hashbrowns beforehand in a pan - also mix the cheese in with the hashbrowns instead of with the baking mix, and then add more cheese on the top when I take off the foil towards the end.

I made this back in May when some awesome friends were visiting, and I'd forgotten to review.I liked the hashbrowns instead of using bread as a change of pace.

This was wonderful!! The only things I did different were that I didn't chill it for 8 hours, it went straight into the oven, hope that didn't change it! And I sprinkled the cheese evenly over the sausage part so it would come out nice and even because I have trouble when I add the cheese to the liquid, then pour it over. But that's just me!! LOL!! I wanted it to come out nice for ya! And that it did!! Thanks Sheri!! :)

This casserole was absolutely wonderful. I made 2 of these to take to our Mothers Day Breakfast at church and they were a hit. I've been asked to bring them again for the Fathers Day breakfast. Very simple to make and delicious as well.

I am a wife and mom of 2 kids - ages 11 & 13. I have been a stay-at-home mom since my kids were born until I started substituting at their school two years ago. I decided to go back to school to be a media specialist. I graduated this May and am working as an elementary media specialist at the school that my children attended. Also, I am a native Georgian. I love to spend time with my family and my hobby is reading. I love to cook when I'm in the mood, and I get tired of cooking the same things. That's why Recipezaar is such a good thing for me! Also, my favorite cookbooks are organizational cookbooks (i.e. church, school) because everyone puts their best recipes in them - Just like Recipezaar. When I tell my friends about Recipezaar, I tell them it is like one really BIG church cookbook!!
