Equipment

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound breakfast sausage
1 onion
1 red bell pepper
16 oz refrigerated biscuits canned
8 large eggs
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
2 cups colby jack cheese shredded, divided
2 tablespoons green onions chopped

Instructions

Get prepped: Dice the onion and bell pepper (medium dice). Cut the biscuits into quarters, and preheat the oven to 425°F. Grease a 9x13 baking dish and set aside.
Cook the sausage and veggies: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until fully browned. Drain any grease. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes until softened. Remove from heat and set aside.
1 tablespoon olive oil
Mix together the eggs: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
8 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper
Assemble the casserole: Place biscuit pieces in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Add a little cheese over the top of the biscuits. Top with the sausage and veggie mixture. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the biscuits and sausage. Sprinkle the cheese over the top.
16 oz refrigerated biscuits
Bake: Bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes, or until eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
Serve: Sprinkle with chopped green onions before serving.
2 tablespoons green onions

Notes

Cut the biscuits evenly so they bake consistently.
Don’t skip browning the sausage. It adds a ton of flavor.
Use pre-shredded cheese to save time, but freshly shredded melts better.
Let it rest 5 to 10 minutes after baking for easier slicing.
Want heat? Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or use spicy sausage.
