How To Make
Sausage, Egg and Cheese Breakfast Casserole

Butterfly

Prepare the Sausage:

  • In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it apart as it browns. Once fully cooked, drain any excess grease. Set the sausage aside.

Prepare the Egg Mixture:

  • Whisk the eggs, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl until fully combined.

Assemble the Casserole:

  • Layer the torn tortillas, cooked sausage, and shredded cheese in the baking dish. 

  • Pour the egg mixture over everything, then drizzle the heavy cream on top.

Bake the Casserole:

Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden and bubbly.

Serve:

  • Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving. Top with salsa and sour cream for added flavor and a beautiful finish.

How to Store:
 

  • Refrigerator: Let the casserole cool completely, then cover it with plastic wrap or transfer it to an airtight container. Store it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

  • Freezer: If you want to freeze leftovers, wrap the casserole tightly in plastic wrap and then in foil or place it in a freezer-safe container. It will keep for up to 2 months.
     

How to Reheat:
 

  • Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cover the casserole with foil to prevent it from drying out and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until it’s heated through.

  • Microwave: For individual servings, microwave on medium power for 1–2 minutes, checking to make sure it heats evenly.

  • Air Fryer: Reheat at 325°F for 5–7 minutes to maintain a slightly crispy top.
