    I love a good breakfast in the morning but I also really love my sleep. Which is why coming into the morning prepared gets me just want I want.

    An amazing breakfast that I don't have to hassle with in the morning.

    This Make Ahead Breakfast Casserole is the best. I get it all together the night before and stick it in the fridge.

    The next morning all I need to do is heat the oven and pop it in while my coffee is brewing.

    How to make Make-Ahead Breakfast Casserole:

    Step one: Start by cooking your  ground breakfast sausage on the stove top. Once it is cooked drain the fat then place it into a casserole dish. Add potatoes to the casserole dish and mix.

    Step two: In a separate bowl whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Pour into the casserole dish. Add diced peppers and onions and mix until all ingredients are well combined.

    Step three: Lasyt just top your casserole with cheese and cover with foil. Place in the fridge over night or cook right away.

    Step four: The next morning preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Remove foil and bake for 50-60 minutes or until cooked through and eggs are firm. Serve garnished with diced green onions.

     Can this Make-Ahead Breakfast Casserole be frozen:

    This recipe can be frozen but you will need to bake it first. Once baked and cooled place in a freezer bag or airtight container and freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat by microwaving squares or baking in the oven until warm throughout, about 35-45 minutes.

    What size casserole dish:

    For this recipe, I used a 9x13 casserole dish.
