Tips for Making the Perfect Egg and Sausage Breakfast Casserole
- Use a 9×13-inch baking dish to ensure even cooking and prevent the casserole from overflowing.

- For a lighter option, you can use turkey or chicken sausage instead of pork sausage.
- To save time in the morning, prepare the casserole the night before and store it in the refrigerator. Simply pop it in the oven when you’re ready to cook.
