In reply to Patty Riesett. Thanks for the tips, Patty! I agree, you can never have enough cheese, lol! I'm glad that you enjoyed it!

I have made similar types of breakfast casseroles with these ingredients. Some of the shortcuts I use are croutons, you can use plain or perhaps a garlic flavor to add some flavor and since the casserole sits overnight in the fridge the croutons soften and it sure is quicker than cutting bread into little squares! Also, I have found that mixing the sausage into any liquid base makes the sausage sink to the bottom of the bowl and not really mix well. I usually pour the egg mixture in first, then sprinkle the cooked sausage on top; same goes for the cheese, it tends to sink too since it’s heavier than the egg mixture and in my opinion you can NEVER HAVE ENOUGH CHEESE. I love overnight casseroles – no muss, no fuss – just a delicious breakfast. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

In reply to Kimberly. Hi Kimberly! Yes, you can freeze it uncooked, just assemble, cover with plastic wrap and seal it up with foil and pop it in the freezer for up to 3 months. Let it thaw overnight in the fridge before cooking. You can also freeze it cooked, after it has cooled completely, wrap individual servings in plastic wrap, then place it in a sealed freezer-safe container and freeze up to 3 months.

Is there any way this can be frozen either before or after baking and if so, how long can you freeze it? Also wondering if you tried doing this cupcake sized so you can make individual servings. I’ve made this for years and we love it. I’m just wondering about the cupcake size and freezing?

When I told my family what was baking, they were like “meh, ugh “. Then they saw me cutting into it and it’s now gone! They loved it. I did add green pepper with the sausage/onion and I added mushrooms and white pepper to the egg mixture. My sausage was still hot and I didn’t want to add it to the egg mixture for fear it would scramble. I poured the sausage mix over the bread, sprinkled the cheese over it then poured egg mix over. It is a keeper, for sure. Used Pepperidge Farm whole grain honey wheat. Delicious. Thank you.

In reply to Nan. I haven't tried it with bacon, but it should be fine. It will change the texture a bit, but would still be tasty!

can you use bacon instead of sausage?

In reply to Gina. Hi Gina! You'll need to use fresh bread or the casserole will be too dry. The dried stuffing will soak up a lot of the liquid.

In reply to Sandra. Do I have to use fresh bread cubes or does dried stuffing bread cubes work?
