Tried and True: Breakfast Casserole

The weekends have toned down a bit and I haven’t found myself with much culinary imagination in the kitchen until I saw some divine roasted red pepper and garlic sausage and, with some smoked mozzarella and freshly baked sourdough, and it came to my mind I should make some Breakfast Casserole.  I think the hardest part was waiting for the bread to soak up all of the creamy egg custard. I also used 4 egg whites in addition to 2 eggs and I think that was the perfect touch.  The leftovers were perfect the next day for a light lunch and this hit the tried and true file.

There’s something warm and comforting about making this for the family.  This is a dish that would be perfect for your next brunch or leisurely weekend breakfast and, quite frankly, I don’t see why you couldn’t make it the night before and bake it off in the morning.  Bookmark this and, the next time you want something that kicks the socks off the typical eggs and bacon breakfast, use this as inspiration with ingredients you love.
