How To Cook Mississippi Breakfast Bake With Sausage Patties


This breakfast casserole is a tasty combination of eggs, bread, sausage, diced tomatoes and green onions, and Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese. It's one of our favorite breakfast casserole recipes.

Ingredients:

  • 4 slices bread, crusts removed
  • 6 to 8 sausage patties, cooked
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onion
  • 1/2 cup diced tomato
  • 1 cup Cheddar or Monterey Jack Cheese
  • salt and pepper
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk or half-and-half
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Cajun or Creole seasoning or seasoned salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika, optional

Preparation:

Tear bread into small pieces and sprinkle in bottom of a lightly buttered 2-quart casserole. Arrange sausage patties over the bread; sprinkle with green onion, tomato, then the cheese. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and remaining seasonings. Pour slowly over cheese layer. Refrigerate overnight or bake immediately. If refrigerating overnight, take casserole out of refrigerator about 1/2 hour before baking. Bake at 350° for 40 to 45 minutes, until set in middle.
