SAUSAGE AND EGG BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

If you like sausage, you’ll love this recipe, but if you prefer bacon you can use that instead or include both

which is what we like to do. You can make this up to 24 hours before cook time. Just cover and place in fridge until ready to cook.

Here are the ingredients needed for this casserole:

  • sausage
  • crescent sheet or crescent rolls
  • cheese
  • eggs
  • milk
  • Italian seasoning
  • salt & pepper

Start the casserole by preparing your sausage. While the sausage is browning, unroll the crescent sheet and spread onto the bottom of a greased 9×13 pan. Spread the sausage over the dough and sprinkle the cheese on top.

Whisk together eggs, milk and seasoning in a bowl and pour over the top of your casserole.

Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes.

When the eggs are set and the crust is golden, the casserole is ready

Quick Garlic Noodles

Ingredients

  •  3 tablespoons butter + 1 tablespoon olive oil
  •  6-8 fresh garlic cloves, minced (we always use 8)
  •  2 scallions, greens only (thinly sliced)
  •  1-2 tablespoons fish sauce
  •  1-2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  •  1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  •  1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  •  8 ounces noodles
  •  fried garlic, for topping
  1. Infuse the Butter: Heat a large pot with water and allow it to come to boil, cook the noodles according to package directions, drain and set aside. While the water is boiling, grab a large, non-stick skillet and place it on medium-low heat. Add the butter, oil olive, garlic, and scallions. Let the butter infuse with the garlic for 5-7 minutes, stirring often. The garlic should barely sizzle here, you don’t want it to brown.
  2. Garlic Noodles: While the garlic is going, grab a small bowl and mix together the fish sauce, oyster sauce, and the sugar. When the garlic is cooked, kick the heat up to medium-high, stir in the prepared sauce; let cook for 30 seconds. Add the prepared noodles and toss with parmesan cheese (yes, parm!) Let the noodles cook for a minute so they soak up all that flavor. Top with fried garlic and serve immediately!
