  • 1can crescent rolls
  • 1lb mild breakfast sausage
  • 6eggs, beaten
  • 2cups shredded cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 9×13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Brown sausage in skillet, drain excess grease.

Bake at 350°F for 30 to 35 minutes.

Can I make this casserole ahead?

If you want to save cooking time in the morning, you can brown your sausage the day before and keep it in the refrigerator until the next day. Then all you do in the morning is put everything together and bake.

Or, if you want to save even more time in the morning, you can prepare everything the night before, cover with plastic wrap and keep in the refrigerator until ready to bake the next morning. This makes it the ultimate go-to breakfast casserole for both those lazy mornings where you just don’t want to get out of bed, or busy mornings with a house full of guests!

Can I freeze breakfast casserole?

This is the perfect casserole for freezing. Bake the casserole according to directions and allow it to cool completely. After it is completely cooled, you can place it in an airtight container or zip top bag. Lay it flat in your freezer for up to a month. You can also cover your baking dish tightly with aluminum foil, then at least two layers of saran wrap.

When you’re ready to reheat the casserole, take it out of the freezer and transfer to an oven safe dish if you froze it in a ziplock bag. If you froze it in the original baking dish, be sure to remove any plastic wrap. Bake the casserole in your oven for about 25 minutes at 350°F, or until the center is warm. No need to thaw. This makes it easy to have on hand for the holidays, too!

How to store and reheat leftovers

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat your casserole, simply microwave it covered, or place it in your oven at 350°F until the center is warm. Have it around for breakfast the next day, or even breakfast for dinner!
