A heartwarming casserole filled with cornbread, sausage, and eggs, perfect for brunch or dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups leftover cornbread, crumbled
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 lb breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 1/2 bell pepper, diced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped green onions for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
  3. Add the crumbled cornbread, cooked sausage, shredded cheese, diced onion, bell pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well distributed.
  4. Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter, and pour the mixture into the dish, smoothing the top if needed.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is set and golden on top.
  6. Allow to cool slightly before serving — garnish with chopped green onions if desired.

Notes

For best results, let the casserole cool for a few minutes before cutting to get clean slices. You can customize with different vegetables or meats.
