At the start of each week, my family is already looking forward to our traditional weekend breakfasts, when I serve warm and wonderful dishes such as this. The make-ahead convenience lets me relax with the family as the savory aroma fills the house. Ingredients:
1 pound bulk pork sausage |
1 pound johnsonville® mild ground italian sausage |
1 medium green pepper, chopped |
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
2-1/2 cups onion and garlic croutons |
8 eggs |
1-1/2 cups milk |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese |
3 to 4 plum tomatoes, thinly sliced |
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook sausage, green pepper, mushrooms and onion until meat is browned and vegetables are tender; drain. Place croutons in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish; top with sausage mixture. Beat eggs and milk; pour over sausage.
2. Cover and chill for 8 hours or overnight. Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 45 min.
3. Sprinkle with the mozzarella and cheddar cheeses. Place tomato slices over top; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake 15-20 minutes longer or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting. Yield: 12 servings.
