Egg and Sausage Casserole

  4.6 – 705 reviews  

Bombay potatoes are a delicious Indian side dish that is also vegan, incredibly easy to prepare, and great for the whole family. This is the one Indian food I prepare that tastes incredibly authentic because I’ve lived in both India and the UK, where it’s a common dish.

My standard breakfast for guests and holiday mornings. I use Costc9 dehydrated hash browns instead of the crescent roll dough. Great comfort food and there’s always leftovers.
Patrick Gray
Very good and easy to make
Tracy Moore
So simple and just perfect for my family! If you love easy, cheesy, egg casserole, without a lot of extra fluff, this is the one for your group!!

Great recipe with modifications. Followed the recommendations of the other reviewers and used 10 eggs and only 1 cup each of cheddar and mozzarella. Also added 3/4 cup of milk to the egg/cheese mixture. I pre -baked the crescent roll dough for 7 minutes before adding the filling and it turned out perfect. Made it a day ahead for Easter and refrigerated overnight. Easter morning I just reheated it in a 350 oven for 30 minutes and it was perfect. My guests loved it. I was especially glad that I didn’t add the full amount of cheese. It was just the right ratio of egg to cheese by halving the amount.

I love this recipe, I too gave the croissants a pre bake for about 7 mins in a convection oven before adding the eggs and sausage then baked all for 40 minutes due to the convection setting. It was still great. Just bake the left over ( I fix 6 serving). So half a can of croissants) croissants to go with the meal and you are all set. Enjoy.

Super easy and yummy. After reading several reviews, ended up using 12 eggs, 3/4 cup milk and a little less cheese. Also added in a small package of diced ham and some Mrs Dash seasoning. Also baked crescent dough 8 minutes first then added egg mixture then baked for another 35 minutes at written temperature, came out great.

I made the recipe as it is written. It is a good recipe that tasted similar to a breakfast sandwich.

What a great Keto recipe – and can easily be baked without the crescent rolls (which admittedly up the yummy factor). I used 12 eggs, 1/3C milk, and a hefty 2 C of cheese. It baked beautifully and was enjoyed for days by the two of us-dinner the first night and several breakfast servings later.

It was delicious!!!

I make this every year and love it. I had issues with it being too runny last year though. This year I added peppers and onions to the sausage while I cooked it. I also used Italian seasoning instead of just oregano and pillsbury butter biscuits instead of the Cresent roles to make base thicker. Last, I cooked 25 minutes at 350 vs. the 325 recommended. I thought it came out perfect and was a total hit. Happy holidays!

Delicious!!!!
Richard Jennings
This turned out really well. I added 2 more eggs per other reviews that I saw. My mother has made this for many years, but without the crescent rolls at the bottom. I really like this recipe because it’s fluffier and a lot less greasy.
David Huang
I used gouda instead of mozzarella. Very good.
Karen Guerrero
Always a hit. Room to innovate with additional ingredients
Jennifer Stuart
I liked this casserole, but I made a couple changes to give it more flavor. I used sweet Hawaiian crescent rolls, which I found at Giant Eagle, and I used either a seasoned breakfast sausage or Italian sausage. My kids loved it after I made these changes so it’s a winner in my opinion.
Anthony Morris
Perfect
Ryan James
It was pretty good, sauteed onions and green peppers along with the sausage added some extra spices. Tasty
Clifford Ford
Delicious, I made a vegetarian version too and it was just as delish as the sausage. I used turkey sausage in one too and both turned out really good!!!
Jason Miller
2/3rd a cup of milk, 10 eggs, 1 tsp of Italian seasoning, 1 cup cheddar and 1 cup of pepper jack. More of a kick but even my pickiest eaters loved it.
Dawn Bates
I made it for Christmas morning. Big mistake. It had no eye appeal. That’s the nicest thing I can say. There are too many other breakfast casseroles that we all prefer.
Andrew Osborne
no salt or pepper needed-this recipe is great just as it reads!!
