Yes i know…. another breakfast recipe! I can’t help myself though….i absolutely LOVE  breakfast food! I could literally eat it for every meal. In fact that’s why we have brunch and brinner! LOL There are so many options too! This one is especially nice because its a good hearty meal in and of itself! Its full of cheesy potatoes and sausage and the eggs kind of bake right into it! (yes i splurged and had eggs AND cheese even though I’m really not supposed to! LOL, Oops my bad right?! If you need dairy free, just use soy cheese instead!) But this dish is SO worth it! Oh, I also used green onions (not sauteed with the sausage) because that’s all i had, but either way its delish!  The only downfall (in my mind at least) is that is takes so long to make. You have to cook the meat and then cook the casserole, and if you’re anything like me in the morning, (or anytime really!) you’re starving and practically drooling when just the meat is cooked! Then it’s like, well now i have to wait another HOUR+ before i get to actually eat this deliciousness! LOL  Again…its well worth the wait! Who can resist such ooey gooey cheesy breakfast goodness!? I know i can’t! Paired with some fresh fruit on the side and a big ole glass of orange juice (yep, another splurge!) this will set your day off right! So reward your taste-buds and give it a try….i know you’re craving breakfast food now aren’tcha?! Enjoy! 🙂
