Sausage Gravy Breakfast Bake – a family favorite! Super easy to make and tastes great! Breakfast sausage, shredded cheese, eggs, water, milk, sausage gravy mix, bread cubes, and melted butter. The crispy bread on top makes the casserole! We like this for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner. Serve with additional sausage gravy, grits, and fruit for a meal the whole family will enjoy!
Cook sausage in large skillet on medium heat until brown. Drain sausage. Spread in lightly greased 11x7-inch baking dish. Sprinkle shredded cheese over sausage.
Beat eggs, water, milk and 1 packet gravy mix in medium bowl with wire whisk until well blended. Pour over cheese. Arrange bread cubes evenly over mixture. Drizzle butter over bread.
Bake, uncovered, 40 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
Prepare additional package of sausage gravy mix as directed on package. Serve with the casserole.
Notes:
I use Jimmy Dean sausage. Can substitute turkey sausage.
You can use any shredded cheese that you enjoy. Colby, Monterey Jack, and sharp cheddar cheese are all delicious.
I use Sunbeam Bread slices. You can use any bread that you prefer.
What can I add to the casserole? Onions, green bell pepper, and mushrooms are all great additions.
Cook the veggies in the skillet with the sausage.
