JIMMY DEAN BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 F. In large skillet, cook sausage over medium-high heat, stirring frequently until thoroughly cooked and no longer pink. In large mixing bowl, combine eggs, milk, mustard and salt; stir well.
• Distribute half the bread evenly in a buttered 9 x 13 x 2 inch baking dish. Sprinkle with half the pepper, half the cheese, half the sausage and half of each optional ingredient. Repeat layering using remaining bread, pepper, cheese, sausage and optional ingredients. Pour egg mixture evenly over casserole.
• Bake uncovered for 55-60 minutes, or until eggs are set. Tent with foil if top begins to brown too quickly.

INDIVIDUAL BREAKFAST CASSEROLES

Steps:

• Prheat oven to 400°F.
• Drain thawed potatoes and make sure there is no excess water on them.
• Spray the inside of an 8 ounce casserole dish or ramekin with non-stick cooking spray.
• Press potatoes into the bottom of the ramekin.
• Place ramekin on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, or until potatoes are lightly browned around the edges.
• Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10-12 minutes.
• Right after removing from oven, reduce oven temp to 350°F.
• In a small saucepan, saute the peppers, onion, and jalapeno until tender, 5-7 minutes.
• In a small bowl, mix together the egg and the cream, add the minced garlic and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Spray the top of the potatoes and sides of the ramekin again with a little more cooking spray (I like butter-flavored).
• Place half the cheese on top of the potatoes in the ramekin.
• Cover this cheese with the sauteed peppers and onion.
• Pour egg mixture over that.
• Top with remaining cheese.
• Carefully place ramekin on a baking sheet in the oven and bake for 25-35 minutes or until set, puffy, and golden.
• Allow to rest 5-10 minutes after cooking.
• Then run a knife around the edges of the ramekin, and invert onto a serving plate.
• Tap lightly, and carefully lift ramekin away from casserole.
• Serve warm.
