Notes
For a spicier flavor, use spicy breakfast sausage. You can add vegetables like bell peppers or onions to the sausage for added nutrition and flavor. To make it cheesier, use a mix of cheeses like Monterey Jack or pepper jack. Adjust seasoning according to your taste. If you have leftovers, let the casserole cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
