Egg Bake Breakfast Casserole

Name: Egg Bake Breakfast Casserole
Prep time: 7 min
Cook time: 45 min
Total time: 52 min
Yield: 10 servings
Ingredients: 1 tube crescent rolls; 7 large eggs; 1 1/2 cups milk; 3 cups cheddar cheese, shredded; 1 cup bacon, cooked sausage, ham, peppers, etc.

Start by spraying a 9×13 casserole pan with non-stick spray. Then roll out an entire tube of crescent rolls (we get the organic one). Use your fingers to press perforated edges together and get it to cover the entire casserole dish.

Next sprinkle 2 cups of grated cheddar cheese and whatever meat or veggies you like on the crescent roll.

NOTE: Our family loves using the natural sausage links, but you could use bacon, keep it just plain cheese, or add in some chopped peppers and spinach for a vegetarian dish. Your pick, it is super easy to tweak to your families preferences!

In a separate bowl whisk together 7 eggs and 1 1/2 cups milk.

Optional You really don’t need anything else for it to taste AMAZING! But if you want to add any seasoning like parsley, dry mustard, or garlic now would be the time.

When you are ready to make this super easy overnight breakfast casserole just pull it out so the pan comes to room temperature while you preheat your oven to 350 F.

Remove cover and bake 45 minutes in preheated oven.

Now you are ready to eat this easy to make breakfast casserole. Just cut and serve! I love that it is so simple to assemble without any separate cooking, is easy to make head and store in the fridge, and cooks up perfectly every single time!

This is seriously the best breakfast casserole and I make it for everything! It comes out so puffy and perfect every time. It tastes amazing!

Some might like to eat it with sour cream or salsa. Or serve it with fruit or hashbrown casserole. Personally, we eat it just as it comes out of the oven with a side of fruit and it is perfect – serving 10-12.
