Breakfast Egg Bake

There are several of these all over the internet. I made this one up myself, but I am sure there is a similar one out there that you could find.

  • 1lb Italian roll sausage
  • 7 eggs
  • 6 slices of bread
  • 2C milk - divided
  • 1-2T Cajun seasoning (can use any seasoning you prefer)
  • shredded cheddar cheese
- fry sausage and drain. Reduce to low-medium heat. Sprinkle flour on sausage to coat. Stirring well. Once sausage is coated well add 1 1/2C of milk and stir. Continue stirring until gravy thickens. The more milk you add the thinner the gravy will be. With this amt. it is pretty thick.

- Mix eggs, 1/2C milk and seasoning

- spray baking dish with cooking spray. Tear slices of bread and line bottom of a 9x13 pan

- pour sausage gravy evenly over bread

-pour eggs evenly over gravy

- you can put this in the fridge overnight or let sit 15-20 minutes then bake.

-bake at 350 for 30-45 minutes until egg mixture is cooked through. Add cheese when about 10 minutes of cooking time remains.

Frittata

This is a good family meal - even for the teeny tiny ones. You can pretty much add anything you want since the main ingredient is the eggs. All the meat, veggies, cheese, and pasta are optional depending on your taste. You can even do a sausage, bacon, ham one if you want to keep it more as a breakfast item. Thanks MrsAmers and Heather for the recipe!

EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil)
Garlic
Potatoes - cubed
variety of veggies (broccoli, cauliflower,etc)
salt
pepper
basil
8 eggs - beaten
Pasta - cooked (any variety)
shredded cheese (any variety)
Meat (cubed ham, sausage, etc.)

Sautee garlic in EVOO, add cubed potatoes, once the potatoes are browing add veggies and some more EVOO, salt, pepper and basil. A few minutes later add the cooked pasta and the eggs. Stir to make sure the egg is well distributed to hold it together. Sprinkle the top with shredded cheese, reduced the heat to medium-low and cover the dish. Cook 10-15 minutes until egg is done.
You can try a variety of vegetables, pastas, cheeses and spices or just use up leftovers in the refrigerator.
